Yep. I found a baby that was older than Rockette so she was more independent. I have an old barn next to my house so I moved her out there and started leaving food and water out every other night. She still lives in the barn 3 years later and has had 11 kits during that time. Most of her kits move on after their first winter but a few have also stuck around.

Oh, we got a squad of raccoons that tear up our lawn for worms, my dad hates them. We named the ringleader Phil, hes the chunkiest. One night, i was walking past our screen door and got jumpscared by a raccoon just peering in at me. The lil dude then squared up through the glass. I love raccoons, and sometimes ive seen their lawn rampages in action because of backyard motion lights. They strike in the dead of night, in a pack of four, and they are just so crafty. I'm secretly rooting for Phil to get all the grub he desires. I also recently found out they demolish the entire neighborhoods lawn, not just us. So like if you're a homeowner, probably not ideal, but if you get to just watch the cutest lil scavengers, raccoons are very nice to observe.

The picture of her at the beginning sucking on her rescuer's finger like a bottle, holding it with her tiny hands, that was so damn cute! I bet she comes back with her own babies someday!

Just goes to show how a little bit of kindness can go a really long way. I wish more people out there were like this.

A professional at my local wildlife rescue center told me once that they do not take raccoons to foster because they need extensive care and training if they are going to be released. I think this video does an excellent job of documenting this. What a wonderful woman to give this precious being a loving home and family (including fur babies) I actually am very happy with the lifestyle this raccoon ultimately chose for herself.

I have never loved an animal more than the bond formed with a baby raccoon. His instinct to be wild & free could not be ignored so I soft released him & he continued to return every 10-20 days. It was during winter so I assumed he was finding his own spots to sleep for days at a time. He had a good meal one evening, played for a while, had a little nap curled up under my arm and then left thru his doggie door....and never returned. Broke my heart. I wanna believe he made it but I dunno if he did. It was the highlight of the pandemic & one of the most cherished times in my life. I have a whole new appreciation & love for raccoons and "that little boy"...who I lovingly called "Scruffie" ... will always have a piece of my heart with him. 💖
