OMAHA, NE. – An opossum with a sweet tooth got ahead of herself for Valentine’s Day. She was admitted to the hospital for eating an entire chocolate cake.

It wasn’t just a regular chocolate cake, vets said it was a Costco chocolate cake.
The opossum spent some time getting a diet reset with caregivers last week before she was released back into the wild.
The Nebraska opossum received so much attention that Nebraska Wildlife Rehab created a shirt for their “chocolate bandit” to help raise funds.
