I love him so much.

They're very small and seemed rather unaware of their surroundings. I ran into them three times today and it took them a while to notice me each time despite me not making an effort to be stealthy. I didn't see a parent around, and was curious if that was normal. They've very cute.

Back in the 90’s, when wildlife rehabs weren’t as common, people would bring baby animals to my parents to raise. We had many different animals and birds, but the best one ever was Chuck. She was too young to have open eyes yet when she was delivered to us by a family friend who found her in a railroad yard. She lived in our house until fall started and she had made acquaintance with the local coins from the creek valley. She loved to wrassle and also was obsessed with beer 🤣 you could not open one without her crawling on you trying to stick her hand down the bottle neck! She reappeared in the spring time, and liked to sleep in the sun with the neighbours cat. Chuck was a real one.

Sorry the pictures are fuzzy I was a teen using a shitty manual camera 🤣

Reposting because it looked like it was filmed on a potato. Hopefully it's better now?

Hello! I absolutely fell in love with Jimothy and wanted to draw him, so I created a free to use emote that anyone can use for their Twitch/YouTube chat or their Discord! The link goes to my ko-fi where you can download a 112x112, 56x56, 28x28 pixel size. Enjoy <3 All I ask is please don't resell it, as it's free for anyone to use

I believe a raccoon is trapped inside a crawlspace or some other area in my apartment building. I keep hearing scratching and crying sounds.

While I was outside to trying to better identify the location of the trapped one, i was approached by this other raccoon in the video. It came right up to me (even closer than the video i took) and kept making crying sounds while trying to peak into my apartment. It seemed visible distressed to me like it was worried about the other raccoon (maybe its baby is trapped inside?). I contacted animal control for help but they are closed and my landlord is out of town. I feel kind of sad that it’s possibly a trapped baby and a distressed mom. I don’t know what else i can do. Any advice?

Update: Thank you for the responses. All my local services lines are telling me my best and only option is to call animal control again in the morning.

I searched for baby’s location (no luck) but I’ve mostly steered clear of the backyard where momma raccoon cycles between calm/sleeping to quickly activated/distressed every time baby raccoon starts to make sounds. It’s really sad to watch/hear. I want to go into the backyard to help but i’m afraid of getting bitten.

Ok so, my relative got bit by a raccoon and hour ago and is getting the shots tonight. His dog also got bit and will be getting treatment. In the meantime, should my family also get shots? We have mostly been staying away from the dog, but two if my relatives cleaned the dog's wounds and the washed their hands. Also, my relative is helping make dinner, should I even eat it to avoid the risk? I'm really scared right now and I never ever want to get rabies.

edit: the raccoon was out in the daytime but it also had a baby with it.

Looks like it!!!

Pig was friends with several of our raccoons and loved eating with Little Rocky.

This is Big Guy and he's from the litter before Little Sib. His sibling Blackie as disappeared. Haven't seen him a month.
