I don’t really have much to say about this. I have to assume that whoever put this up, put it up as a joke. If it was a joke, it’s a good one. I’m giggling. But of course it’s even more fun to think there is some lunatic out there that really thinks he’s found a lost cat.

LULZ! Tell me this is faked, tell me there isnt acutally someone dumb enough out there to think a possum is cat… And how the hell did they catch to begin with! Sigh… the internet, brings up more questions then it answers…
It is a real poster. But it is a joke. A joke. A joke. A joke. Get it?
wow, Queen B you don’t actually think they caught it do you? If it was a joke then they probably didn’t catch one…because it’s not real…if it is a joke…?
How did they catch it.!!!!???? That is as funny as the picture..
Photoshopped
I thought it was a ferret, not a possum?
Ah ha ha ha ha!
Catching a possum isn’t hard… They’re dumb as shit and twice as slow.
that posting is real. The lost cat looks like a maincoon cat. Are you guys serious?
Not faked, it’s viral marketing. If you call the number on the flyer, it’s a recording about a stupid MLM scheme.
you people don’t know shit…
that IS a cat !
OMG that’s MY cat :o) I missed him SO much.
ye thats pretty cool !
had a pet rooster once, shoulda seen what that possum did to his butthole.that why they got long nose & shit eating grin.
Hey.. that looks just like my cat
I agree with the post on top of mine, it is indeed a rare species of the Felius Catus found only in the fertile imaginations of numbskulls
Those cats are used in sweet n’ sour recipies in Chinese restaurants all accross the nation!
Haha, it’s not a possum, it’s a Opossum!
Possum are a different type of marsupial found in Australia. The “cat” pictured is a Virginia Opossum.
to the people above arguing about whether he caught a possum, what sort of idiot would do that when they can just get a photo on the internet?
Eat more possum!
Hey, there’s my “Schnookems” with his beautiful grin!
I think it’s an Ohippopotamus.

A OPOSSUM??
Rav, get your grammar sorted mate.
AN opossum.
(Y)
xCBx
For all of those in wonder on they caught the so called (cat), don’t you know cats can play opossum and you just walk up and grab them?
Hilarious. By the way, the left picture on the poster is the same pic from wikipedia article, in case some people have any doubts.
So, if Eir can confuse a possum for a ferret, it’s totally plausible that this poster is for real.
Well, I thought it was a ferret, not an opossum.. It’s an easy mistake. But a cat?
Do a google image search for possum and you’ll definitely see the one on the right. Hilarious joke, nonetheless.
Thats a possum, and i’ve seen a copy of this with the mobile number on it. It was apparently posted by some UNI students who had never seen one before.
Our dogs use them as toys when they come into our back yard. If they are Virginia Opossums why is it I have found them in the following states: IN;KY;TN;TX;OK;AR;LA;CO;NC;SC;WI;IL;GA;WV;AZ;NY;NJ;UT;ID;NM;MO;NV;OH;MI;MN;WA and MD. I had the opportunity to see such creatures during my military tour through the above mentioned states. Go ahead with your bad selves. Arty
So, like, where does the internet stand on whether this is photoshopped? I didn’t bother looking at the picture myself, I just want to see what everyone else is thinking so that I can start agreeing with them.
shit you got some arse ugly opossums over there!
on the other hand we got some good lookin ones in AUST and some strange lookin animals as well!
but thats another story.
THANK YOU CYANIDE. IMPROPER ENGLISH IS FOR ILLEGALS DUMBASS.
Perhaps people on Sunset Blvd legitimately have never seen a possum? Imean, LA probably doesn’t have a whole lot of wildlife ((other than some rockstars and actresses I won’t name, lol).
OMG! I bet Paris Hilton put that sign up!
you people are idiots, the poster was a joke at the expense of the person who’s number is listed, hence why it is scribbled out physically and not digitally . Obviously the victim got a lot of humiliating phone calls, and went around scratching his number out on it.
I taught photoshop for a year and I can tell you that the reason it looks pixellated is because of bad jpeg quality, not because of digital alterations.
This is really funny. Hopefully a fake too. But you never know. There are a very large amount of idiots in the world and I’m sure at least a few would think “AWWW KITTY!” if they were to see an opossum. Although honestly I would hope they would think that it was a giant rat or something first. BAD KITTY..! NOT VERY NICE!
It’s Hillary!!
Yeah, an opossum. My dogs used them as toys, too. Once they tired of the game, they brought the (by now headless) bodies into the house to lay at my feet. The dogs would look up at me, wagging their tails, proud of bringing me such a wonderful gift.
this is absolutely not photoshoped.
i saw this same poster the other day. i tried calling the person but it was a fake number
what a nice looking cat. i wish i live in spain where the cat was found so i could get 1 just like it! i would pet it and feed it chimmichangas all day coz that’s cat’s favourite meal!
That is NOT a cat - or it is a photoshopped one.
It’s fake. I actually posted one around my neighborhood. If you google opossum, you can find the picture on the right.
Please…it’s AN OPOSSUM not a possum!
Hey, how cool I found one just like that on my street only it was FLAT……………………….
yeah, that is a opossum alright we got plenty of em round here only bigger and meaner. I got a BIG South Carolina bred Ninja trained Super Possum for a pet that will kick yer dawgs azz and serve him his own tail for supper.
Why is it that whenever a picture is put up on the internet there’s at least one person in the world who posts “Photoshopped”? There’s got to be at least some real pics on the internet somewhere…
HAHAHAH! I HOPE YOU ALL HAD A GOOD LAUGH! THAT WAS MY NUMBER ON THERE! NOT FUNNY!!!
Priceless … the right hand image of the possum hissing is just hysterical.
Has anyone noticed that Wikipedia has totally STOLEN this guys photoshopped picture? I don’t see a CC mark anywhere on that thing, they should sue.
The pictures are on the first page of google image results for “possum” so yes, it’s a joke.
it’s not photoshopped..
they have these around Venice too. see panda found !

Possum and opossum are both correct. Why would you photoshop a hand made sign? Sunny, as a college English teacher, I can only marvel that you think “Improper English” (Whatever that is) is only for illegals. But I can tell you that an inability to work the caps lock is a sign or intellectual and moral degeneracy.
Yes the poster is a joke. Yes the poster is funny. Glad to have stumbled it, since I wouldn’t likely have seen it in my neighborhood. Thanks!
MITTIZ!!! THEY FOUND MY CAT!!!
It’s not photoshopped I think they used a felt tip.
They should add to the poster….
The Cat?…has tendency to play dead in the middle of the road…(LOL)
the comment are funnier than the found poster…LOL
That’s good eating. Yes, and real cats are edible too.
it looks nowt like a maine coon!!! its a possum! maine coons are huge wi big noses like lions
I found a baby possum one time awhile back.It was just a bitty thing so I brought it home.My cat had just given birth to a litter so I put it in there and she just mothered it real good and took care of it just as if it was her own.It got older and started to act more like a possum than a cat so I put it outside,but it stayed around the place.
One day I went outside and saw it laying on the ground.I thought it was playing possum but it was not,it was dead.I think my dog Dawg killed it.
same pic as wikipedia article
If you are from Texas, it’s POSSUM! If you are not from Texas, your opinion doesn’t matter anyway!
Hey you found my cat!
Possum are part of the cat family. wiki it.
It’s a joke. Picture number two came from here:
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d6/AwesomePossum-AmericanOpossum.jpg
please note: all unreasonable and/or inflamatory postings are there as jokes. If you respond as it they were serious, you didn’t get it. (just kidding)
That is hysterical .Especially all the comments afterwards. LOL.
well, Davo my Maine Coon Cat didn’t have a nose like a lion,but, long haired tiger and beautiful !! Definitely Cat-Looking hehe
I’m pretty sure that’s the pic of a country singer. Someone just got him mixed up with a possum. Was he flat?
It’s a joke. There is NO WAY a person has nabbed a live grown possum without getting eaten up. They are vicious, mean, have sharp teeth and claws and WILL bite you.
Good joke though…..
is that a possum….?
looks very different to the possoms we have in austalia
haha good one!!!!
RIP gary the possum. I used to have a possum in my apartment siding. One summer day we noticed flies. Exterminator came and found tail in liqid slime of decomposed possum. Yummy!
Pleez, this is not an opossum,it’s an asspossum, they have one attached to both ends of their body- sh:t goes in,sh:t comes out- especially when you lock-up your breaks on one.
I just luuurve all the StumbleUpon comments.. And Mudkipz.
Sure it’s an opposum if you ask some professor but if you ask anyone in the eastern USA that’s been outdoors more than 5 minutes in their lives and they’re going to call it a possum. BTW people here in the good old USA ate a lot of possum back during the depression. They were even introduced in western states as a source of food. I’ve known of outdoorsmen types that still fix them from time to time. But get a few copies of Jesse Stuart books and you’ll find lots of stories of catching possums for dinner. I’ve also known of extremely poor types to stop and pick them up as roadkill for dinner. True that. And no I’ve never eaten any possum but those Aussies (some of them anyway) eat real cats and not the funny looking kind. BTW they will play possum too so they are VERY easy to catch.
People eat them now, now armadillos are kinda tough.
You have to tenderize diligently.
who cares!!feet feat posum possum opossum!!!!!!!
now..who believes they hang from their tails?????
If you say yes, you are an idiot!!!
DUH
Susie… They DO hang from their tails. They don’t sleep that way, because the tail’s strength lies in muscles within it. Muscles relax when you sleep, and that would result in the possum falling out of the tree. The tail however, IS a prehensile tail, and therefore by definition it is able to grasp and hold onto things, including suspending the creature from a tree limb.
Ratman said that the number is some viral marketing number (or something like that, I believe). How did you see the number? On the picture I’m looking at, the number has been blacked out with a permanent marker…
