Let's wake up Smokey the sleepy raccoon

- Don't try this at home. We are semi-trained raccoon cuddling professionals. Also our raccoon is cuter than yours.
Background:
Smokey's mother broke into our roof and had a litter of two kits in June of 2011. We were planning to just wait for them to leave (which will happen once the kits are old enough) but the mother raccoon got in a fight with our neighbour's cat (required many stitches) so we decided to evict her. I removed a wall panel to gain access to a crawl space and pull out the two kits while the mother watched and growled disapprovingly from a short distance away (crawling into a confined dark space with an angry mother coon is definitely one of the scarier things I've done in my life).
We placed the kits outside near where the mother was entering our roof hoping she would take them somewhere else but she didn't. Therefore we decided to raise them. I had pet raccoons when I was a kid so this was not new to me. A couple weeks later one of the two kits became sick and died suddenly but Smokey was fine. We kept him indoors for a few months, then transitioned him to being an "outdoor coon". We live on a small hobby farm with lots of good coon habitat. Gradually we saw less and less of Smokey as he became independent. The last time we saw him was probably around 2014. The life expectancy of a raccoon in the "wild" is not very long so it's unlikely he's still around, but our hearts are hopeful every time we see a raccoon that resembles him.

Hes like why are you waking me up, only been sleeping 23 hours lol
The little handsies are so cute!
Raccoons and their grabby little hands.
Rick the Firefighter There's a reason why they do that.
But..you're a possum, you also have grabby little hands.
Jordan L True! And mine are pink, like a human almost.
Tiny human hands😍😋
Te he he he
The only thing sweeter than this raccoon is this woman's beautifully gentle and soothing voice. Lucky man on both accounts!
I want to cuddle him! He's so cute!
I think racoons are just precious. I feed them every day. thanks
I like how the raccoon sticks out its tounge when it yawns.
long time since I've seen such incredible raccoon. very beautiful and cute
He is so adorable and cute,🐼 You guys are so lucky to have him I really wish I could have one. Thanks for caring and loving him😘
Ohhhhh what A lovely little baby. He loves his daddy and has the sweet disposition of mommy. Thank you for the upload
The raccoon is the cutest animal on the planet! The panda isn't far behind. Not sure about rocky as a pet, but I'd love to hang with someone else's.
This is the most adorable thing I've ever seen!
😆😍😍😍😍😍😍🦝🐾💫❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Precious!
Sleepy head. My BB is always a sweetheart when she gets woke up....usuay
He is so beautiful and sweet! 🦝💕💕✨
Adorable! :-)
I love how he yawns. ❤
Oh my heart 🥰
Oh my lord he is sooo precious. Love that you shared this to show people that not ALL raccoons are naturally vicious when raised in such a nurturing environment. God Bless y’all!
I’d love to have a pet raccoon. Are they safe to have at home? I’d imagine they’d be destructive, but they’re so damn cute!
Mine wasn't destructive but then again he had full reign of our big house in the country with a huge veggie garden, and the outdoors ., that probably made a difference .
If you get them when theyre babies you'll be fine, just make sure you have them socialize with alot of people or they'll become aggressive. And yes, they love destroying furniture.
Such a handsome boy!
what a sweetheart
i love raccoons, they have child like personalities with all that entails
Ach süß er hat so schön geschlafen niedlich 😙😗😘😍😚💋💋💋💋💋💋💋
He is so sweet.

Raccoons are so nice. Love this video.
Just in case, I would check his ears for ear mites. Ok .and a few drops of ear meds will take care of that for now at least. Couldn't hurt anyhow. What say u.
My baby I raised but wouldn't stay inside because she was an explorer was killed by a car. I miss her..she has a pay room in my garage. They love toys like cats, dogs, and kids. I had her from approx 2 months old to 8 or 9 months. I miss her so much. She was my best friend! Built her a tree house and a garage rafter house for winter warmth and my hallway to back door had a heater and a sleeping area. Wish she was still here. It's been almost 2 months and my heart still hurts. Never thought i would be a racoon mom. Tighter her to catch worms and bugs ....I miss my Peanutbutter cup. Her favorite food was peanuts .I bottle fed her kitten formula. I wish she would bot gave neen killed or that she would have stayed inside . But outside made herv

Can't decide whether to get a cat or a dog? grab a raccoon, not too big, not too small, pretty much a mini panda
