We have a few neighbors who can be rather bothersome in the evening. There was one time in the not so far past, that one of them came uninvited into our home. What a commotion that caused. The pesky little critters are really smart and know right where we keep the cat food. They have even figured out how to untwist a lid off a 5 gallon bucket. Crime-anently. Last night in the early hours of the morning we heard one of the cats whining and crying...if cats do that - you know what I mean. So Mark got up to check things out - and as soon as he opened the garage to let the whiney cat out - he saw one of our neighbors scurry out the door. Now we know why she was making such a fuss all night and why the wooden trim around our door is now torn to pieces. The raccoon had been locked in the garage for the night!
The joys of living in our little neck of the woods.
Do you think raccoons have mean teeth? I do.

Wow! And I thought we had interesting stories to tell living in the country.
How did you end up getting him out of the house?
WOw...that is crazy! Good luck with that!
Lindsey and Jake had to get a broom to scoot him out. They had left all the windows & doors open thinking he would just leave on his own, but he had too much exploring to do. :)
wow.. I thought Raccoon is a cute harmless animal but it's not.. I didn't know that..
those buggers are mean little devils. next to jake and lindsey's adventure, my favorite raccoon encounter is when they got up into the canoes. you just can't keep wildlife away from you!
