Do not call 911 for this, this is stupid?

the worst part is you were ready to call animal control, and then called the EMERGENCY number.

One time in college, I went to my friends place and I was already a few beverages into the night and I made a run to the kitchen to pick up beers for a myself and a few others, and I saw a opossum in the kitchen drawer. I didn't think twice about it, and I went back into the living room and said "Hey guys, your opossum is messing around in the kitchen"

THe looks I recieved made me realize how ridiculously unlikely these guys were to have a pet opossum.

I didn't really know what an opossum was until I looked it up just now. Dear God.

It wasn't that mean looking, and it was a very young one. The weird thing is, they aren't really all that common around here. But it was more cute and cudely, like this guy.

I can't help but think that someone died today, because 911's line was busy.

It doesn't work that way here. 911 is for emergency and non-emergency. Otherwise I'd never use it for the raccoon.

It's used for emergencies and non-emergencies here as I explained below. Otherwise I certainly wouldn't use it for this. In fact, the officer told me to call 911 again this morning to send animal control out.

This creature actually looked kind of cute. It seemed to be sitting up like a teddy bear.

Nonsense. For the last time, animal control is dispatched from 911, and I'm about to call it again right now AS THE COP TOLD ME.

I think for 3000+ posts, you might suck at internet foruming.

You realize these people are replying BEFORE you stated the emergency/non-emergency thing, right?

Yes, just as you judged my actions as "stupid" before you had any facts.
