It's 5 o'clock somewhere: Opossum breaks into liquor store, gets drunk as a skunk

 

FORT WALTON BEACH, Fla. -- An opossum that apparently drank bourbon after breaking into a Florida liquor store sobered up at a wildlife rescue center and was released unharmed.

Emerald Coast Wildlife Refuge officials say the opossum was brought in by a Fort Walton Beach, Florida, police officer on Nov. 24. A liquor store employee found the animal next to a broken and empty bottle of bourbon.

"A worker there found the opossum up on a shelf next to a cracked open bottle of liquor with nothing in it," said Michelle Pettis, a technician at the refuge. "She definitely wasn't fully acting normal."

Pettis told the Northwest Florida Daily News the female opossum appeared disoriented, was excessively salivating and was pale. The staff pumped the marsupial full of fluids and cared for her as she sobered up.

"We loaded her up with fluids to help flush out any alcohol toxins," Pettis said. "She was good a couple of days later."

Pettis says the opossum did not appear to have a hangover.

The store owner, Cash Moore, says he never had an opossum break in before.

"She came in from the outside and was up in the rafters, and when she came through she knocked a bottle of liquor off the shelf," Moore said. "When she got down on the floor she drank the whole damn bottle."

 

i wonder what brand of bourbon the critter chose?  Always wondered if Opossum had good taste in alcohol.

"Cash Moore, who owns the liquor store, said the opossum had gotten into a bottle of bourbon. Moore added that as far as he knew, it was 21 years old."

 

I assume he's not guessing the age of the opossum...

Veterinarian Accused Of Shooting Neighbors' Dog In The Head

A veterinarian in Louisiana was arrested on Tuesday and charged with aggravated animal cruelty after allegedly fatally shooting her neighbors’ dog in the head.

Kelly Folse, 35, is accused of killing Bruizer, a 15-month-old dog who belonged to her next-door neighbors in River Ridge, The Times-Picayune reported. Prior to Bruizer’s death, Folse had sent “hostile” messages to one of the neighbors about the dog’s barking, Jefferson Parish Sheriff Joseph Lopinto said during a news conference.

Folse’s family told local news station WWLT-TV that she is an animal lover and the allegations against her are outrageous.

Bruizer died on Dec. 14, the day after being found in the backyard of his home with a gunshot wound. A woman identified as one of the dog’s owners, Stacy Fitzner, told Fox 8 she had left him in the yard when she went to work. When Fitzner’s mother was passing by the home later that day, she noticed Bruizer lying motionless in the grass. When she stopped to check on him, she saw he was surrounded by blood.

Bruizer was rushed to the vet, where he died as a result of his injuries. Though he was taken to the same vet’s office where Folse worked — Abadie Veterinary Hospital — she was not involved in his treatment.

When investigators spoke to Bruizer’s family, they saw a series of threatening text messages from Folse, who complained about the dog barking too much and being aggressive, according to WWLT-TV. Lopinto said at the news conference, however, that investigators found no evidence the dog behaved aggressively.

Scott Abadie, the owner of Abadie Veterinary Hospital, said he fired Folse the day that Bruizer died, after the dog’s owners showed him “totally inappropriate and disgusting” text messages she had sent about Bruizer.

“So that gave us the first clue to it,” Abadie told WWLT-TV. “And later that morning there was some statements made about the dog that did not sit well with the technicians and myself and we just told her to leave right there.”

Abadie also addressed the incident in a Facebook post on Tuesday, saying that everyone at the hospital was “shocked and disgusted” by what happened.

 

In addition to the animal cruelty charge, Folse faces additional charges of illegal discharge of a firearm and drug possession.

The case is reminiscent of a 2015 incident involving Texas veterinarian Kristen Lindsey, who shot and killed a cat with a bow and arrow. However, while Folse has not admitted to killing Bruizer, Lindsey bragged about her kill on Facebook, posting a graphic photo on Facebook and writing, “Vet of the year award … gladly accepted.”
