I fell asleep in the chair outside
I had the laptop on my lap, by there was this little pull on my shirt.
Yep, the raccoon that insists on being my friend was there because I had put the cat inside. It's little hand yanked on my shirt to wake me up.
What on earth?

Raccoons - dumb question [View all] Oct 23, 2013
I have one that is a frequent visitor. She loves cat food, and lingers quite a bit with anything left in cat bowls. She's kind of solitary, though I think she was one of the brood I saw running around in the spring.
She's cute, and snatched my shirt one night when I was asleep on the porch. She nipped me (nothing bad, just a playful pinch) on the toe when she wasn't fed. I fed her, and she placidly crunched on cat food like she owned the place. She was about a foot away from me. I didn't dare touch her.
Is she dangerous? Is she rabid? Will she hurt the cat? So far, none of those things have come to pass, but she's kind of small. If she gets full grown will this be a problem?

Okay, the raccoons have gotten ridiculous
I was out on the side patio, and two juveniles mobbed me. Like, sniffing my feet mobbed me. I went on the other patio to get the cat and bring her in, and there they came, and I had to grab her up and toss her inside while one of them grabbed my damn foot and sock as I was *fleeing* it. I don't think it was trying to bite, I think it was just hungry and was trying to stop the food wagon (I haven't left food out for them because they have gotten to be a nuisance).
What in the hell do I do with these damn things to get them to stop mobbing me? The cat was just sitting there like "they aren't going to mess with me if I don't mess with them" but they freaking run up to me like I'm their damn mother! Seriously, I felt a little raccoon slobber on my sock. It was trying to keep me from running away because I didn't feed it.

I got bitten by one. I went outside, and the damn thing bit me on the toe while I was talking on the phone. WTF?

36. I was on the porch, and it ran up to me. I tried to brush it away, but it bit me.

For those that followed the entire saga of the raccoon bite
I got my last shot yesterday. It's a doozy in making me feel fatigued, but I'm pretty overjoyed I won't get rabies!http://www.democraticunderground.com/10024445713

The final solution for raccoons
-
You feed wild animals and they become dependent. When not fed they can become dangerous.
The same is true with welfare recipients. Look at the calls for violence from the DUmmies when they think their feeding trough from Uncle SugahBama is threatened.

Change "raccoon" to "democrat voter" and you'll understand how I feel every time I look at tax withholding on my paystub, you retarded shit.

Same thought I had reading this thread. I would call these DUmmies retarded, but I don't want to offend retards.

I did too! Her name was Remington. She was a baby when I found her. She was the best pet. I would be working in my front yard and she would follow me around. People would drive by slowly I guess thinking I was about to be kamikazed. :lmao: she loved to run her fingers through my hair. But sometimes she was deadly. I couldnt go near her when she was in heat.

Well, the males get even worse during that time. "Rascal" was house broken and had his own bedroom. I would put "Rascal" outside during rut. My X-wife thought I was being mean until once during that time he put a canine tooth thru her shoe, big toe nail, big toe and out the bottom of the sole of her shoe. From then on she trusted my judgement of when it was time for him to be caged outside for about 6 weeks. Usually outside about this time of year actually.
He was about the size of my fist when we got him and we did enjoy him for about 4 or 5 years. Someone unlatched his cage one day and he must have followed some slut off into the wild.
Even though he was a lot of fun, I wouldn't raise another one and keep it.

I'm on the Gulf Coast. We have huge chunks of sleet falling all over the place, and it's going to hard, it sounds like hail almost.
Time to invite that raccoon in to snuggle with you.

UPDATE on the raccoon saga

Rabies shots - is it normal to have out of control nosebleeds when you get the last shot?
sinkingfeeling (29,343 posts)
1. Are you asking about a human being or an animal?
Aerows (21,650 posts)
4. It's me
I had to go through the series. Now my nose won't stop bleeding.
Cali_Democrat (19,047 posts)
2. You should probably ask a doctor
Seeking medical information about various symptoms on DU is probably not the best idea.
Just sayin'

11. ya think? "I have uncontrollable bleeding, maybe I will ask a progressive forum what I should do?"
Aerows (21,650 posts)
7. My nose keeps bleeding
like, badly, and I wonder if it has to do with the rabies shot. Don't get me wrong - I'm overjoyed that I will live, but damn.
jberryhill (32,908 posts)
12. Ah, you finally got the shots
I missed that part of the saga.
Aerows (21,650 posts)
15. I did
and I didn't mean to make it a saga. Since the last shot, though, I've been bleeding like a blood bank.

Two separate occasions? Was it the same raccoon?

:lmao: Even the DUmmies are laughing at her.

Frequent nosebleeds can be caused by brain tumors or nose cancer. Also it can be a result of too much nose candy.

Well, sort of. She's a raging lezbo, though not one of the Ku Klux Klams.
Best known for lamenting how the drought would drive up the cost of eggs.
My guess is she'll sit there until she bleeds to death.
Damn Elad. DUmmy Aerows would make a great addition to the Dead DUmmy forum.

They do have thumbs, If they open their paws up, you will see it..

The DUmmy just proves those old sayings -
"You don't learn anything the second time a raccoon bites you."
and
"Bite me once, shame on you. Bite me twice, shame on me."

She should hand feed the largest alligators she can find.
Too bad there's no crocodiles close to her.

Raccoon saga UPDATE :rotf:
Aerows (22,202 posts)
Health care costs in the US are completely reasonable
Raccoon bite, rabies series?
$18,000. I shit you not. I was walking, didn't spend a day in the hospital, just got injected with bad shit in the emergency room and got shots that took a total of five minutes apiece.
Aerows (22,202 posts)
8. Oh, and icing on the cake?
My insurance has refused to cover it. I'm officially ****ed.

On, and on, an on she went.
One mentioned that rabies is basically 100% fatal. Here's the reply..

16. If I knew this was coming?
$18,000?
I'd have let it be fatal. I will never again go to a hospital and "do the right thing". I'd rather die on the side of the road than deal with the horseshit I'm iin.
Well just go play with another coon then, you DUmb scrunt.

You would think that with their self-professed expertise in every matter known to man, they'd know not to deal in any way with filthy beasts of the outdoors, which include, but are not limited to, raccoons, opossums, skunks, rabbits, mice, and rats.
You'd THINK it.
Notwithstanding animals that are kept clean by dint of being domesticated pets, outdoor animals carry filth and disease and are not "cute" in the least except at a distance. Liberals think anything that communes with and subsists from the outdoors is "natural" and "noble," forgetting somewhere along the way that most cases of anthrax are caused by the sort of filth they invite by FEEDING ANIMALS.
If you want to feel good about feeding something, DUmmies, feed a hungry person. Leave the critters to their own devices. We will all be healthier for it.

There's got to be at least one DUmmy who asks about the condition of the raccoon after its ordeal...

Whoa, we got an upset lezbo over here:

There is nothing better than a DUmbass in distress!!
I hope she loses everything she owns.
And here's a new candidate for the distinction of being the stupidest person at the DUmp:

of course they must have exit doors every where.

Everything she "owns" she liberated from her neighbors. She took income inequality to heart, and into her own hands.

I know it has been covered before but I just thought I'd mention to the DUmmies once again.
Don't play with wild animals, their purpose in life is to ruin your day.
And for Aerows, all I have to say is.
Here kitty kitty kitty...lets go snuggle with momma.

^So it's a vision thing.

Did it catch anything from biting said DUmb****?
