kookycanooky Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 me and some friends were sitting by the pool last night enjoying some drinks when my buddy drew goes to piss in the back of the yard and spots a raccoon. It looked young and was acting very bizzar...spinning around in circles and scratching its head. First my friend tried to touch it with a broom, to which the little guy started playing with like a cat. then for somereason drew tries to pet the little fucker Then it lay down and went to sleep. After 2 mins I was sure the thing had died Here is the last picture i got before falling into the pool with the camera as the little guy was walking towards me hopefully drew woke up this morning. it was pretty neat seeing a non-vicious raccoon.

Birdy Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 aww.. how cute! my grandma used to have a pet raccoon.. i wonder if the little guy is oKay. maybe he had heat exhaustion and was just way too tired to put up a fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balogna pogna Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 Be careful. Racoons can tear you up!We had a garage full of gurgling babies one time and all my friends wanted to adopt them as pets.Lets just say lots of blood was spilled and they all ended up releasing them to the forest because they were still so wild even though they were so young.

Calamity Jane Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 yeah...I got lots of racoon stories myself....including quite a funny one which ends with me getting 7 weeks of rabies shots!!! The most recent event was me sitting here at the computer in our family room, all alone late one night last week, and looking down to see a HUGE momma racoon at my feet....she'd pushed our porch door open and wandered through a back door to see what was up, I guess. We both spaz...she takes off back to the (screened-in) porch...her three babies go crazy-wild as momma is hissing at me and climbing the screens to the roof rafters. Luckily this all ended without rabies shots, though I did have racoon poo to clean up off the porch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarinGarage Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 i think when wild animals are unusually tame, it normally means they're sick and dying of rabies, so be careful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
