opposum

So, just had a very scary moment in retrospect...went to the garage for something in the dark and came back in the dark. Saw our friendly cat in the dark and said hi, then opened the screen door to get in and the fluffy cat that usually won't even let us get near it went in the corner between the screen door and the real door that lead to the inside. I said "oh hello there!" all happily, and as I opened the door that lead to the inside and moved to step inside, there was enough light to see that it was actually a opossum as I turned around a bit to reinspect and it ran across my feet and off the porch...
