The Opossum and the Cats: Finding Friends in Unexpected Places
Journey with Marilyn Wassmann as she takes readers on a tale of friendship and finding kindness in unexpected characters.
Birth is a miracle that can be seen in many organisms; it allows people to pass down generations of knowledge and genes into a new organism to help them survive in this harsh world. As lovely as it can be, it can also be dangerous to the offspring if not born in the proper conditions, resulting in a high number of stillbirths and miscarriages. Despite this, only a few individuals beat the odds and survive, a feat that few can accomplish.
In the book, The Opossum and the Cats, by Marilyn Wassmann she tells the story of a mother cat who sought shelter in the most unusual places. The story of a mother cat’s struggles with birth and her search for a safe place to bring her children into the world – and making an unusual friend, an opossum, who assists her in caring for her children, providing them with safety in their harsh world.
