Can a cat attack and eat a possum?
Cats and possums are reasonably evenly matched in their ability to fight and defend themselves against the other.

It is possible, though not likely, that the possum might kill the cat, especially if it is an indoor cat. True possums - those native to Australia - are shy creatures that would rather run from a fight than confront a cat, but they could certainly lash out in self-defence. (Possums are not the same as opossums of North America.)
