They seem so sweet and harmless when they are asleep. However, the other 23 hours a day...
Do yourself a favor. Pack up all your small belongings and precious items and drop them in a donation box somewhere. You will save countless hours searching for them not to mention the groundless accusations and recriminations of various household members.

Nope, not a rescue. My LPS had a few in.

Snark, oh, I know. :). My first raccoon but I've also had a skunk for the last two years. I know all about getting everything off the floor and locking cabinets and random thievery. If it isn't bolted down, boarded up and chew resistant, that's skunk property. And now raccoon property.

Pete - yep. We walked out with him last saturday. :)

Oh man.. you're gonna wake up one day, and your livingroom will look like a crime scene hahaha...


And the raccoon will be missing, until you see his head pop out of a big hole in the drywall :D

I love racoons. It is funny that I have seen none in the 10 years I have spent in the US but I have seen one here in the forests of Switzerland :).

You gotta check this out:

You have no idea how jealous I am that you have a Skunk AND a Raccoon. I will watch this thread.
