Our volunteer, who loves the British musician Sting, named the male and female opossums for Sting and his wife, Trudy.<\/p>\n<p>Initially, Sting and Trudy did well growing. They grew to the stage where they were lapping formula and starting to wean. Then, Sting continued growing, but Trudy stopped thriving. It wasn&#8217;t long before Sting was five times bigger than his sister and pouch-mate, Trudy. Losing ground rapidly, Trudy was definitely in trouble. We thought we were going to lose her.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, wild animals love the smell and taste of EmerAid. It was easy for us to mix up some of the <a href=\"https:\/\/emeraid.com\/vet\/emeraid-omnivore\/\">EmerAid Omnivore<\/a> powder with warm water and entice Trudy to lap it up. A couple of weeks later, Trudy was thriving again. Even though she will never be as big as Sting, she will be released with her brother to the wild.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Young, brother and sister orphaned opossums get help from All Things Wild Rehabilitation.
