Great video and most helpful. My opossum was very docile until I perhaps massaged her in the wrong way too. Yes, "chi" is important in all living creatures and I learned the hard way...
Wow! Watched the video. Mind boggling.
I'm afraid the only massage a possum deserves here in NZ is a violent one.
They are not welcome here; as an introduced Pest, they destroy way too much of our native flora. Which in turn , removes the habitats available for our native birds. [edit] Pest status in New Zealand
