Story time:

While my mom was in the Army Reserves she had to do "guard duty" overnight during her 2 weeks a year.

She spent one night locked in the cab of a supply truck repeating to herself and her partner, "there's nothing we can do..."

Raccoons busted into the back of the truck, ripped open all the MREs and took only the junk food like chips and cheetos. And probably the adorably tiny bottles of Tabasco. It looked like a tornado the next morning and a whole truck of food no one was going to eat anyway (probably) got written off.

Those tiny bottles of tabasco are the cutest food things. I can just imagine eine Waschbär using one.

Morbidly obese raccoon stuck in a sink: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hsYZtv0D_84

Doesn't really look stuck so much as having a blast and getting his drink on.

We've always owned raccoons. My aunt is a retired vet, and the game and fish is always bringing us stuff, especially baby raccoons.



Aww, cute little baby raccoon.



Cute little curious baby raccoon.



Cute little curious baby raccoon who had both hands firmly on my watch band and tried to take it because it was shiny.



Cute Baron checkin' on us while we were pettin' the baby raccoon.



Cute little baby raccoon chewing on my left index finger with its cute little baby raccoon needle teeth.

Do those raccoons end up going back out, or did you keep any? I can't seem to get a straight answer on whether a raccoon raised from birth as an indoor pet would be a disaster or an adorable pal.

We'd better domesticate them before they replace us

That's probably already in the early stages, with urban raccoons developing human-pleasing traits.

This is less cute and more creepy. As someone said, like that Furry episode of CSI.

So when you have a pet one, I assume you bathe it. No matter how adorable wild one are, they're going to be filthy.

Maybe they're like cats, largely just keep themselves clean? For indoor trashbears, anyway, yes anything outdoors will be gross.

I remember a raccoon gif of a little dude sitting in like, a chair or maybe a hammock? He was super-fat and was trying to get up and couldn't, it was the most adorable. Where is that?
