Every pet owner would freak out if they saw a random animal latching onto their beloved pet, but it purely depends on the animal in question.

Sally Watkinson spotted a baby Australian ringtail possum clinging to her dog's back and decided to share the incident on her Facebook page. She posted an album containing a few pictures of the cute little possum hitching a ride on her dog Kato’s back.

She later updated us on the situation, mentioning that this incident actually happened twice.

She initially spotted a tiny female possum sitting on one of her pets’ backs; neither of her dogs had any idea what was happening. The dogs were eventually taken to the vet by her partner Jon, while the possum was later transported to the care of wildlife rescue.

The dog is completely oblivious to the fact that this tiny baby was hitching a ride on his back.
