And the kits came rolling out!


Hey gang - Rusty has a treat on - come and get it…..

Relaxed!


I just sit, relax, and eat everything in sight

Learning how….


....to plan his work even while eating..Future renovations?

Goodness me, mommy can we come back tomorrow?


We even have toys to play with as well as food….

Oh my, I’m stuffed…


Look at that smile…This is one happy baby raccoon!

Hold the Onions!


Well look who came back. Now this critter has no smell - yet, and seems to tolerate me and my camera quite well. But I don't want to take any chances... Grinning a big grin. I wonder if there will be any baby skunks this year. I don't think so - I suspect this critter is just a year old.

Big Momma Relaxing!


Oh my! What a busy night. After Chloe came by to show off one of her family, we had a visit from Kimmie (Big Momma) and her gang of five. Big Momma seems to have decided to let us act as baby sitters, (or should that be kit sitters) - while she moved off about twenty feet to just relax.

Sitting pretty!


This shows how gentle most of the youngsters are. This little one stayed snuggled up to milady waiting patiently for her treat

Scritch my ears please.


Of course being busy munching on a tea biscuit helped. ;-)

A Gentle Creature.

Raccoons and Water - go together!


Dunking time! Or perhaps just playing in the water. The dish is 15 inches across - a little bigger than the kit.

I like these treats....


Oh I do love this biscuit. The tea biscuit was only a treat. The main menu was a ‘kibble’ type of dry dog food. Mostly a chicken-rice formula.

One Happy Baby

Chloe's youngster


Chloe came by tonight. At last! I was getting worried about her. Though she only had one kit with her this time - she may show up with more over the next few nights. She looked somewhat thin, but her youngster looks healthy and both had a good appetite.

I have seen Kimmie and her gang, but recent photos I had of them vanished into oblivion when both my main HD and backup drive got trashed. I hope to get some new stuff over the next few nights.

Chloe and kit drop in for treats
