Here’s a load of baby possums to make your Tuesday slightly less awful

Gimme them possums.

It’s Tuesday which means it is officially the worst day of the week.

No, Monday is not the worst day, Tuesday is, because Monday is like whatever, you’re back to work, but Tuesday is like, you’ve settled into the week but it’s not even barely close to the weekend and you can’t really be dealing with it right now.

That kind of vibe.

Anyway, to make your Tuesday even slightly less awful, we’ve only gone and compiled a load of photos of baby possums doing adorable things because honestly who doesn’t want to spend their time looking at possums doing cute things?

Not us anyway. We definitely want to spend all of our time doing that.

Here’s the possums.

And again.

And again.

Stunning.

Baby possums are adorable for lots of reasons.

The first is that, due to the fact that they are babies, they are automatically less threatening looking than the average fully grown possum.

Those possums often appear to be quite angry and will bear their teeth at the first sign of danger.

The baby possum probably does that too but when they look this sweet you’d have a hard time believing it.

The second reason that baby possums are adorable is because their eyes are far too big for their heads.

Like, massively so.

Look at them there.

Such a small boy but with such huge eyes.

So elegant, so pure.

The third, and final, reason why baby possums are adorable is because of their little hands, often used to grip and also climb.

Bless.
