[C.Marshell]

I posted pics of this lil guy back when ssnakess was just begining,since then there have been many new members,so i thought i would post these shots again.His name is Kirby..and his mom was hit by a car,so i took him in and raised him to give him a second chance at life..he was just 4"long when i first got him and we fed him with an eye droper..quite a change from that day..he is now a big fat, healthy, happy lil guy..great to see him doing so well now...hope you like him!

chris do u keep him @ home? and did u get him vacinated for rabies and such since most coons have rabies

[C.Marshell]

Oh yes!!..the little fella has had all his shots.

Did u get him declawed? Does he ruin ur furnisher? cause i've had so many chance to take in sick raccoons but i don't want my house ruined?:monkey:

He is SOOO kewl !!!!
hahaha :)
Iv always wanted a racoon :)

[C.Marshell]

nope..he still has all his claws,..i really do not find him all that bad,he does find stuff to get into once n a while,but for the most part he's great!ive had him even before his eyes were open.
uses a liter box just like a cat would,and is a very clean animal...allthough his water dish is usually less than tidy.lol..he takes everything to his water dish.

so do they make good pets???

[C.Marshell]

I guess it all depends..i got him when he was real young,so he is pretty good,not much more trouble than a cat or dog.

OMG! Thanks for posting these pics! I had a raccoon for a year or two and raised the little girl....momma also got killed by a car and no one was there to help her!

Certainly curious little creatures!

Thanks again Chris!

That's cool Chris. :D
What do you feed him, and where does he sleep? Does he have a cage or free roam?

Awesome I;d love to have a pet coon, but I dunno if I could find a vet that'd give him all the shots knowing I'd be keeping him...actually that reminds of another thread I want to make....
