The video starts with TikTok user Brett (@brettbratt359) “freaking out” while showing off her decorated Christmas tree.
Her frosted white tree, decorated with an array of black ornaments, ribbons, and sparkling lights, seems to be fine.
However, as she walks closer to the tree, she shows a pair of beady eyes staring back at her from between the boughs, revealing an opossum sitting comfortably in her tree. “I have no idea how this opossum got in my house and up into my tree,” Brett says in her video.
With over 13,200 comments, people have been raving about the opossum, even commenting their best holiday-themed puns.“‘And a possum in a pear tree,’” one person commented.
