YOU CAN'T HANDLE A PET RACCOON 

Sorry for the bad video formatting, but we had a lot of vertical clips that we thought y'all might like.

1:40 - "With a snoot that cute, you're bound to get booped." ❤

I've always appreciated how this channel is transparent about how difficult raccoons are to raise. I would know, being one.

My parents used to take in orphaned raccoons. They were so precious and such a huge handful! ALL of them, but especially these 2 I'm going to tell y'all about. 😂 My parents had purchased a very nice (and expensive) king-size mattress. At this time they had 2 brothers that had been orphaned. Yep, you guessed it, they made a hole under the bed up into the new mattress and this is where they decided they were going to sleep. They also somehow made a hole in the wall of one of the back rooms. They were crawling around in the wall until one brother got stuck. Talk about screaming! BOTH of them...one because he was stuck, the other because his brother was stuck. What a mess to get them out and THEN to repair the wall. Dad used to buy their favorite foods and kept them in one of the crisper drawers in the bottom of the fridge. When it was time for a treat, he'd open the fridge and they would pull out the crisper drawer and choose their treat. Oh my, but they were soooo precious! It was wonderful living with them. And it was a HUGE relief, but much more of a great sadness, when it was time to release them. No, they weren't just tossed out to fend for themselves. My dad built them a little tree house and they came & went for a while. Then one day they didn't come back, which is as it should be. But oh MAN, they were so missed. Their very 1st raccoon was Lollypop. She was like a daughter to them. She was so tiny when she 1st came to stay and she became so attached to my parents, especially my dad. Anyway, after she was released, she would come back all the time to visit and take naps with my dad. Then later, every year, she'd bring her babies to introduce them. Mom & dad would put food down for her & her crew. My dad would get down beside her and talk with her. One time, I'll never forget this, he told her "I love you." Lollypop stopped eating, leaned over, and kissed him on the nose. For years after this, she would visit with her new family. My dad's gone now & my mom just can't do the rehab any longer. But we still feed them every evening. And keep fresh water for them as well. We recently had a momma and her 4 babies living in a hole in one of our oak trees. It was great watching them.

Dude, you ain't lying lol. My Rocket has her own room now because she climbed our built ins and almost got the TV off the wall. 😅

He’s so cute 🦝🥰

I definitely couldn't handle raising a racoon but i love seeing other people bond with them😂

My Wild Child works the Night Shift in my cabin home. She sleeps all day, then the mischief begins when the lights go out. She isn’t deliberately destructive as much as stubbornly curious, intelligently manipulative, and so dang cute!

THE LEGEND IS BACK!!!

Thanks for your videos ❤ nice see you guys 😊

Thank you for giving your raccoons a great life - full of affection, good food, and interesting things to do!

Ya gotta luv 'em! Aside from the occasional break-in and entry, the dozen or so raccoons around my house seem to be happiest outside. They're always an adventure. Thank you for a very funny video.

You're right. I can't handle that. I'm glad you can though! Thanks for sharing!

Cheeto and Piper are so cute! But i'm still pretty sad Tito never came back:(

I began feeding birds 🐦 and attracted squirrels so I got squirrel nut boxes. My squirrel nut boxes, then, attracted raccoons, so I began leaving trays of food and buckets of water outside the fence line for the raccoons. The raccoon feed attracted deer. 😂❤ I love animals!

I'm suffering from laughing too hard...this is too funny. It hurts but I can't stop watching. Please post some crazy stuff like that till you can't! 😂 the way you put them to sleep is hilarious.

LMAO, I still got my 2 girls. Still don't allow mine to stay inside. They come in time to time but not full time.

I guess what you are saying is, you got a pet raccoon so we wouldn't have to.

hey there, thanks for this very funny delightful video. also thanks for your care and appreciation for this little critters!

At last! A guide on how to care for a raccoon after I catch myself an Alpha Raccoon using the guide made by RaccoonEggs

Lovable little rascals! I appreciate how well you all take care of these little guys, and that you are always honest about how hard it is to raise them so people hopefully don't try to irresponsibly go out and get one without being fully aware of their needs. These beans are clearly in a loving home and I enjoy watching them so much! 😊

This is all true. Little hands wreak havoc and rearrange your house until it more closely resembles a raccoon lair. Nothing is off limits-electrical wiring, insulation, furniture. They can easily open the refrigerator and cabinets. Nothing is off limits to a raccoon.

I CAN handle it actually 😂😂😂

Once I leave my dog alone on the first floor during a thunderstorm, being on the second myself. There wasn't a single place without feathers from a mattress afterwards. That's why I am not afraid of racoons.

Welcome back ❤we missed you all 😂

My dad is a game warden. He brought us home many exotic animals, but we never got a raccoon.

I can handle it! Bonnie gets away with everything! She's getting out of her destructive stage She's 3 years old now and acts like a house cat!

Still better than having a Coati or Ringtail as a pet LOL, those critters are like the even bigger ADHD version of raccoons

HELP!😂 Chaos is my raccoons name! I didn't accuire my bb because i wanted him as a pet, his mama got hit and the DNR said leave him! He's a bb and couldn't survive on his own. He's about 2lbs now and already kibda hard to handle. The ONLY wildlife rescue in my state, Wv, isn't calling me back, i afraid they're avoiding me. He growls at my cats, i have several, I don't have property, i know as he gets bigger he's going to be really hard to handle. He's currently on my head biting my ear!😂 Idk what to do! I take him to the creek an try to teach him to hunt crawdads, i let gim climb...im doing everything i can to reinforce his natural abilities but i know I can't keep him and i won't just let someone have him that thinks he a "pet" unless they know raccoons & how to properly care for them. Any advice id greatly appreciate!

im crying rn they're so darn cute 😭😭 no matter how much destruction they cause, they'll always win my heart over 🥹

Hide your stuff, your wife, kids!! That quote was made by some black dude in Alabama when bad guys broke into his house in projects!!

Well I'm a single guy with not much furnitures. This absolutely works for me ☺️

aw seems very cute, and tough to handle... 0:49 THERE'S TWO???

I have the best of both worlds, a friendly, wild raccoon that comes around my 2nd floor back deck now and again. I think someone else socialized her, she's very, very well behaved. I held my hand out for her to sniff once and she gently took my finger in her little paw and gave a perfectly polite 'how do you do' handshake. So I got some dog food for when she drops by. I named her Carl, then found out she's a girl. But I still call her Carl, because she doesn't speak English so it doesn't matter.

Awww! Haven’t watched you guys in years! I miss these videos! Thank you! Loved the commentary.

You're absolutely right. I can not handle a pet raccoon. They are very cute and intelligent creatures, though.

Wow...I could keep them in a barn...for sure not in my home. They are cute...but I couldn't live like that. Thank you for sharing

Absolutely adorable! Love your commentary!

Best narration ever . Very funny . Great way to start off my day . Thank you.

"Hide yo kids, hide yo wife and hide yo breakfast" 🤣🤣🤣

Good Lord, I have 17 cats but your guy is a handful!

Nice couch. It’s a sectional now. Very mobile.

Thank you for taking care of Raccoons. 👍

They can do whatever they want they're so cute aren't they they're just way too cute thank you I love that video and raccoons are just perfect in every way

People have too much money and too much time on their hands!.. smh...

I have 3 as of now and yes from start its hard they need care day night for about a year but after that my ones did calm down they have there times but its not too bad. I love them and they are important part of my family and at least for me they are the best pets i could want.

Love you're channel ❤ love from the U.K ❤

I had one, raised from a baby. She was an absolutely amazing little companion. She actually got to see Lords Of The New Church live in Orlando, Fl.

I love watching your pet raccoon videos at 3 am 😂😂 they are sooo damn cute!!!

I love your vids 💯 thousand extra thumbs up.😊

I ve had a pet raccoon, and feel your pain!

Lol this was great to lighten my mood. Thank you😂🙏🏻 Your pets are too adorable ❤❤❤

Thanks for the update. They are adorable, and I would LOVE to have one, but you're right, it's just not practical, so I will admire them from a distance.

0:58 he looks proud on this artworks lol

Adorableness can overcome so much trouble

So cute ❤ They are intelligent 😂

bro ur mom was my spanish teacher

Im so glad to see a video from you! I hope you, your wife & fur family are all well. Keep the videos coming!

Thank you. You are a true animal lover and that's why I'm subscribed. Someone who is aware of the hurdles and challenges and still passes them with sheer determination and love.

Tito is a little devil. But so cute, gota love him

Precious Precious Precious ❤❤❤❤

Please release a new video.

To me, a pet raccoon is a wild raccoon that I've invited into my house and treated for fleas. 😅 That's enough work on it's own just being their friend, but owner? No way. They build their own homes and just play in mine, that's enough for me. Something special about cuddling a wild raccoon that has decided your bed is in fact cozier than it's own that I enjoy. Such smart animals, they're just much better friends than pets in my opinion.

YOUR BACK !!! i was definitely overdue for my latest dose of raccoon 😋

They're so cute.

I had a pet raccoon for two years as a child while living in Ohio. My Dad read an article in the local newspaper saying that someone living nearby had found a litter of abandoned baby raccoons at their home and hoped to find homes for them all. My Dad adopted our raccoon Rascal the next day. The day after that local government authorities seized the remaining babies and “euthanized” them. Rascal was a blessing disguises as a raccoon. I’m glad my Dad rescued him but still infuriated Ohio (at least back then) treats/ treated abandoned raccoon babies as vermin fit only for extermination

This came up in my feed just in time for the local raccoon mommies to teach their babies how to dig for grubs. See, my front yard has nice, shady trees, which keep the soil moist, and encourage grubs. Any morning now, I will go out, and see the yard looking like a flock of giant moths ate the grass. It is pretty interesting though, to watch them. They dig steadily with their front paws, while rotating their entire body with their hind legs. I honestly don't think I could do that. Funny critters, and definitely staying outdoors!

You Right, i cant

You think you want a raccoon as a pet because they look cute and cuddly? You had better review your life. Theyre as destructive as the cute little squirrels you swoon over. I love them both, but they’re heII as pets. Edit: my bad, spell check sucks. DEI hires.

4000$ couch?! Wtf man I just purchased second hand set of 3 full leather modern design for 200$ amd they in decent condition…

I have/had a $3500.00 Serta Mattress now my raccoon owns it🤦🏼‍♂️

do the paintings come with round worms? seriously, these are deadly terrifying creatures. 🍻

I had racoons invade the roof of my house ten days before the date of the closing - the house was in contract to be sold - i had to hire a guy to trap them - cost me $3500 - can you believe that crap? He warned me that if i wasted them some kooky animal rights neighbor could report me and i would get fined tens of thousands of dollars and probably get arrested and end up on the front page of the newspaper - the trapper was originally from the Philippines - i asked him what they do back in the Philippines and he said he would have shot them or hacked them to death - but not here in America where humans are treated like raccoons and raccoons are treated like human beings - 3500 smackers down the toilet

Kitty got eaten 😢

Oh, this is the content I didn’t even know I needed . Love it love it. Love it. Love it❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I saved one last summer she was awesome when small but I knew I couldn’t have her as a pet indoors so when fall hit I moved her out doors to a kennel for the fall and winter. In spring she was released in our woods behind the house. She comes back every night to eat but she keeps her distance most of the time but she still knows her name and some times comes when called. I would get another one in a heart beat of I could

I've had a pet raccoon now for about 2 years and she hasn't destroyed anything I don't think a raccoon is a pet everyone should have should have but for some people they make a very nice pet

Brah, this is too much. And I know you can't release them back into the wild.... They were not meant to be kept as pets.

Hi, Glad to see you your friends and family back.

It's certainly a love hate relationship with these animals. Way too brilliant for a household. These monster's will have a beer in one hand and the remote in the other with the fridge still open. Who even knows where they'll make their latrine 😝

Caye Da' Otha' Bunny flooded the 2nd floor bathroom and destroyed the ceiling in the 1st floor den by chewing through a toiled feed tube. Raccoons, pshaw!

Your not kidding. My 3 leg raccoon is crazy he broke my glasses

I've raised 6 raccoons over the years and are the best pets ever. I never caged any of them and they were all litter trained. I've also raised several baby deer until they were old enough to release.

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah! Bravo Tito's and Piper's Dad! Ciao from Italy! 😀😀😀😀😀😀

lol 😂 😂😂😂😂❤

"whoever was in charge of the intelligence file, got fired a long time ago" ahahah

and you clean all the poop and pee inside the house? hope is your house...not a rental...

Sound like Clarence from the show but older

They're so cute but destroying the house. Lol

Okay note to self Possums are much easier to keep than raccoons.

What state is this in? I will move from Australia to have a pet racoon

Yeah, not one but two raccoons and the narration that is quite a word salad

Hide yo kids, hide yo wife, hide yo breakfast!!

Did you try to discipline the baby raccoon till it adult?

😂 this is so true !! I have a pet 🦝 and property damage is a 100% fact but boy are they adorable. Some people get lucky and get the chill ones that don't destroy everything in site and are so well mannered well I haven't been that lucky.

Most amusing!

I’m a European interested in American accents: does this man have an accent from the South?

RIP Tito, you will never be forgotten...

Dedication DEDICATION.
