Message: [QUOTE="jdb50, post: 3659936, member: 1530"] We had a white lab rat as a pet in the early 80's. Kept it in an aquarium with a wire top while we were at work but let it out when we got home from work. It was a good friend back in the day and was happy to see us when we got home. Have had dogs and rabbits and chickens since. Back in the early 70's worked for a vegetable farmer. The possum post sparked the memory. The farmer caught a possum in the barn and gave it to me to take it out in the woods to dispatch. I was not into that so I brought the possum out into the woods and let it go. The possum was caught again the next day and the farmer told me to get rid of it or else. So I went out into the woods with the possum and beat it to death with a branch. At 15 years old I thought to myself geez the world is screwed up. [/QUOTE]
