It is not recommended to keep a raccoon as a pet for several reasons. While raccoons may appear cute and friendly, they are wild animals and can become aggressive as they mature. They have sharp teeth and claws and can cause serious injury to their owners or other pets. Raccoons also have a strong instinct to forage for food and may destroy household items or escape from their enclosures in search of food.

“Raccoons are intelligent!…”
Raccoon: *commits tax fraud*
I mean, it does take a bit of IQ to do so
HAHAHA!
Funny!
@@Ampex_ yes
💀💀💀
My buddy had a raccoon and a skunk that slept together in a box in his room and they followed him every where he walked lol it was cute
Did he rescue them? I doubt that you can just buy them
well, Buddy, I had Bobcats, Cougars, lions, tigers and bears oh my, so what can you say about me that I am crazy yes sir you can
I'd also like to know did he buy the both of them orrrr like snagged them of the street.
Skunks are fucking nasty, even if u have the stink glands removed they still stink!! Not like a ferret where removing it gets rid of most the stench!
My family had a pet brown and white skunk when I was a kid, my mom would walk it on a leash and it was hilarious seeing people scatter not knowing it was descented, they’re very lovable animals.
My mom had a raccoon named Boo Boo back in the late 80s and all throughout the 90s. Her mom and siblings had been hit by a car, so my grandfather brought her home. She would ride on my moms shoulder in the car, so my mom and aunt absolutely loved her. RIP Boo Boo (86’-99’)
13 years? I'm sure you guys made this raccoon's life good and I thank you for that.
Poor Boo Boo I hope she rests in heaven ❤🕊️
Pmg that's the name of my aunt's dog!
After watching Guardians of Galaxy volume 3. I'm sure racoon popularity will sky rocket. They're already very intelligent animals.
Sky….ROCKET! Lol
No pun intended , right
Just like way back in the 70s where that one anime called rascal the raccoon got so popular in Japan everyone in japan wanted a pet raccoon and caused a huge infestation

“Low maintenance” bro a vet I worked with rescued one and it ate holes in her ceiling 💀
You would think a vet would know better! Lol
Yea "they are low maintenance" maybe, but the damage they can cause is not. So accurately it would be your home/ their environment becomes high maintenance 🙄 🤣
Damn the ceiling, you quickly changed my mind about getting one 😂
endless hours of entertainment
How do you even eat the ceiling??
“They can be trained to go in a litter box”
*Sits in toilet*
My thoughts exactly
Exactly what I thought
There was a litter box at the bottom of the toilet.
Same thoughts
For the win my friend!! For the win!!
It's pretty well known you can't keep adult raccoons as pets, they will do everything they can to escape. But apparently if you let them roam they will come back and visit pretty regularly.
There is always the chance that they are smarter than the people that they live with .
😂
“Can be easily potty trained”
Raccoon: *sits inside the toilet*
"Check that before you get one"
Racoon: 😦
Yech, keep bathroom door locked! Raccoons carry parasites that can get into your body/brain that can cause blindness. However they are fun to watch!
I mean, the floor isn’t dirty so *technically..*
Yeah i noticed that too 😂
He was like “am i doing it right?”

What are you talking about? Do you not sit fully _in_ the toilet like a normal person should?
LOL. My grandma's Siamese cat used to us the toilet for both numbers. It sure was easy for Granny to care for Mark Anthony.

I’ve heard owning a raccoon as a pet is like having 2 toddlers but they never grow up
Pretty precise. It is like having a dog with a cat's attitude and the intelligence of a rat.
@@M3dicayne doesn’t sound low maintenance for sure!
Yeah like two toddlers who when they reach two or three want to commit murder! Cute babies but they grow up criminals.
I'd rather have a raccoon than a kid they have to be my dream pet, along with a penguin but yk..
I have had 3, all were rescued from farm equipment that the mom was killed. The only thing I can say is take the time to train them to a litter box. They are a great pet, and are funny as hell. They are very smart and do tend to bond to one person more than others.

It is A LOT of work. We found a baby a few months ago and with no local wildlife rescue near us we decided to bring it in rather than leave him to his luck. They’re terribly smart, a little stubborn, and so energetic. They’re as loving and affectionate as dogs tho
Ive watched over the hedge a thousand times, I’d be a fool to not see where this is going.

I bet it’s smarter than the dog
I adore the bandits. They are so cute and very funny.
Look, it’s rambly the raccoon from the game
They like to wash their food (check out vids of them washing cotton candy 😂). I read a story of a family coming home to find their pet had been washing a bar of soap for HOURS until it was just a sliver and he looked exhausted from the work 😂😂
That's why some European languages have words for 'racoon' that mean 'washing bears'. Isn't that just the cutest damn terminology for them you've ever heard.
@@80PercentScottish I didn't know that! How cute!
I heard somewhere that they do this because their eyesight isn't as good as their touch sense, and water enhances the feeling of things they touch. Not sure how true it is, but it was interesting.

My neighbors have one and he's as awesome as you'd expect 🦝
Had a raccoon in house when it was young, mother had gotten killed by a car. It was brought to our home, by a friend knowing we'd help it& release at good age.
Guess it liked our care. After release, didn't see for near 2 years.
Then heard a noise one night on our porch,looked out window to see Ricky Ratty . It decided to live on our porch at night , we told friends not to go near window area. Where Ricky stayed, there was a chair and some other things to hide behind, porch was mostly enclosed.
We could come& go and didn't bother anyone, regardless of time of day. Might hear a light chatter at times. Guessing just felt safe near us, never tried getting in nor harming our cats or dogs. 😊😊
Could even go outside & sit, without him bothering anyone.

Is that a downside?
@@birj8414 think
@@birj8414 yeah...because it's nasty to have the raccoon inside of the toilet and then track all of those germs onto everything they touch afterwards. If you can teach it to use the toilet without climbing inside of the bowl, then that would be the best solution.
😂😂
I had one when I was young was a great pet for 2 years very energetic and unpredictable one day he was on my grandads car and he politely tryd to move him and he turned his hand into hamburger meat I mean literally his hand looked like a pound of ground beef all in secs!! He had a cage out back with hunting dogs in it and he grabbed rocky behind the neck with his good hand and threw him 30ft unto the cage..... Rip Rocky 😥
Had a pet raccoon once by accident. Ended up having him for 5 years. He was such a great little dude.
How was it an accident?
Did it die😭😭
@@it-rand4206 that is what I'd be worried about,what's the lifespan of one in captivity?
I'm used to cats that live for 15-23yrs or so, so to me even a dog that's 12 isn't very long to me 😕
5-6yrs?
Makes me wanna quit my job and watch the cuteness all day if I got one.
@@MrTheHillfolk trash pandas in captivity live around 20 years... if you dont get one at a very young age they can be very aggressive though and no matter what are actually high maintenance despite the video claims
What happened to him?
My favourite animal are raccoons because they are intelligent and cute❤
They are very sweet, but they need a lot of attention and you have to set up your house for them to live
Not gonna get a pet that is enabled to open my refrigerator, even if it’s the cutest animal I’ve ever seen
Not only the refrigerator but cabinets and even some doors. I've had a few raccoons and they are a handful and no not make the best pets they are super smart cute and affectionate but they get into everything and the have never ending energy. You can't keep them in a cage they hate a cage this will only make them aggressive and will fight you not to get into the cage unless you have a cage the size of a bedroom. Besides it curl to keep these animals in a small cage they truly hate it. When I had raccoons I had locks on everything because they broke every dish in my cabinets opened every box of food throw everything on the floor got into thr fridge to eat everything and what the didn't eat went on the floor yes they are cute but hard to handle they are into everything and I mean everything. Plus they are called bandits for a reason they will steal anything they like of yours jewelry keepsakes you name it if it looks interesting to them they will steal it lol...
Cute but a handful like have a 2 year old going throw the worse terrible 2's on steroids lol... I would still take a rescue in and give it a home but they just aren't good pets for most people. I'm not going to run out a buy one I would only take in a rescue that needs a home.
Smart men
Baby proof
I can’t have one as a pet, I might go to school and come to my moms cooking him next thing I know we having coons for dinner.
But what if he can open it and grab you a drink?

@@ShackInc. this also applies to cats and even dogs
most animals have sharp teeth and can carry rabies, but sometimes, they can be your friend :)
@@MajoroTom My point is someone can see this video and think it’s ok to approach raccoons in a dumpster or elsewhere in hopes of making it a pet. Now… do a search here on TH-cam of “vicious raccoon attacks” and watch. Not just 1 or 2 but watch several. Not everyone is going to do that research before they act.

As long as the raccoon wasn’t abducted, or taken from the wild, no harm done. A rescued or befriended animal is what a pet is, wether they started out wild or not. I think some people forget that cats and dogs all started out as wild, before forming a symbiosis with humans. Animals and Humans can be freinds.

“Reasons to get a raccoon:
1. Some people keep them as pets”
@@myDickbiG I can assure you they are extremely high maintenance! They can be affectionate but they are also aggressively playful and don’t listen to shit. They are intelligent, but not an intelligence that makes them good pets, intelligence that makes them a massive pain in the ass, like getting into everything and being curious about potentially dangerous things, like power cords.
LMFAO
@EAMitch what raccoons are you talking about because the one near me are extremely destructive when people try raise them as pets. That's why they are a rare pet. They are a wild animal. Like holes in your ceiling, wall, couch, deck type wild. Because why take the stairs when you can claw and gnaw yourself a short cut through the drywall. Worst is then people try and release them into the wild and they are used to being fed so may come back to your house acting aggressive if not fed or maybe to a lucky neighbors house instead. They can't find food in your yard anymore? Your cat or small dog will do. Real cute though.
@EAMitch cats don’t suck they’re just low maintenance lmao
@@trustjah because WILD raccoons need to be trained over time before you take them in not just taken them in when you find them, not to mention that raccoons tend to be destructive and aggressive when they feel frightened or in danger. Get here are raccoons you can buy from exotic pet breeders that are more used to being around humans but it’s clear you’re basing your opinion with bias and not research
While raccoons definitely have an emotional life and can have bonds with humans, please DON’T try to keep them as indoor pets. When the kits mature, the become (literally) wild and can be extremely destructive. Better to make your relationship part of their outdoor, wild life experience. They will bring their babies to introduce them to you, will often grunt their thanks for a healthy snack, and be happier to share time with you on THEIR terms. Not a pet, a wild buddy.
Exactly!! That's why my "pet raccoons " are outside, Where they need to be. I got tired of picking up the trash they got into every night.. I smartened up and stopped throwing my food scraps n the trash, instead i throw them out back on the wood line now my trash is intact and I have made out door buddies, So it's a win win. LOL
Thank you! Good comment. It's a better life for them if they get to be Wild.
Sound advice👍🏾
Yeah, that’s a much better way of doing it. There are sometimes exceptions but for the most part they’re much better off outdoors... and the humans will be too.
Yes so true bruh
I laughed at the image of a raccoon playing around with a keyboard when the narrator said “raccoons are intelligent!”

That mom fighting a raccoon has scared me for lifeeeee
“They need a special diet”
Literally known for eating your garbage
Wild raccoon will eat what they can get, they don't tend to live longer than a few years anyway. He mainly meant that if you wanted them to live a long healthy life they need that diet.
Trying to budget during high inflation? Get a raccoon 🦝 to cut out garbage pickup charge
That's because wild raccoons do not live long which is due to the garbage a domesticated raccoon does need a special diet
All stray animals eat whatever they find and garbage just happens to be common but that doesn’t mean they enjoy eating it, it just means they’re hungry enough to eat whatever
Very specific garbage, They ain't eating your broken car carburator ya know?

“Relatively low maintenance” yeah, no. They will rip apart every single thing in your house.
Seriously, who wrote this script? Obviously someone who only has their own idea of what a raccoon would be as a pet, and doesn't include any real facts or information about what "domesticated" raccoons are like. Spoilers for those who don't know: raccoons aren't domesticated
I dated a girl in college that had an albino raccoon and the SOB was up scrounging around and tearing stuff up all night every night. It also stole things; keys, lighters, shoes, pagers (yeah, I’m old). It was a royal pain in the ass and it’s cuteness didn’t make up for the headaches.
@@jamesduncan6729 well what do call a raccoon that is someone's pet then?
A lot of dogs will too
@@dutchvanderbilt9969 A pet raccoon. Domesticated means it would have been "adapted over time (as by selective breeding) from a wild or natural state to life in close association with and to the benefit of humans," which raccoons certainly are not!!

Oh brother it’s always someone trying to be right on the internet here you go.
Maintenance:
1.
the process of maintaining or preserving someone or something, or the state of being maintained.
2.
financial support provided for a person's living expenses.

Next door neighbor had one. They had it since a baby. At about 3 years old it attacked and mauled their 5 year old daughter. She is now missing 3 fingers.
“Can be easily trained to use a litter box”

Imagine inviting someone over and not telling them you have a pet raccoon and when they ask just say "he's claimed that room, we can't get him out. Do not anger him"

Omg my cockatiel is horrendous in heat lol
YES. My friend had one and it was all fun and games till it hit puberty. I have a scar on my arm from the fucker bc I didn't want him digging in my pockets. They can get super aggressive.
This is why you're supposed to get them fixed, cats do the exact same things
I feel like the main issue that would arise from having a raccoon is how smart they are. They’d get into everything once they figured out how to open your drawers and cupboards, and if not kept properly stimulated, may start tearing up your house. My guess is that you have to make sure it doesn’t get bored by providing lots of toys and puzzles for it.
They are crazy smart and it makes them little Houdinis when it comes to breaking out or into things. If anyone REALLY wants a unique or exotic pet, I would recommend volunteering somewhere that rescues that animal. The only way to really know if want a particular live thing in your home 24/7 is to actually go spend TONS of time with them and experts that can really teach you and give you the opportunity to practice feeding/handling and training. Plus you might end up realizing that you can't actually house it in a way it will be happy, but still able to befriend and bond with them. Plus helping wildlife rescues is really it's own reward.
You could train them for pulling off a heist
You would have to child proof *everything*
@@hb300blk payday 3
I baby-proofed my cabinets and fridge when raising my Molly, she was orphaned before her eyes opened. When she was old enough, I started letting her roam outside at night in the woods behind my country home, she eventually came home pregnant, had a son, then completely returned to the wild with him when he turned 6 months old. They visited often for years after that. I treasure that experience wholeheartedly. She was an absolutely amazing racoon, highly intelligent and a lovely friend!!
What an irresponsible thing to say “Raccoons make great pets”. They don’t. They’re wild animals, not domesticated animals, so they have a ton of behaviors that most people would find very annoying / bad.

I rescued my pet raccoon after his mother was hit by a car. He was one of the most loving pets I ever had. Racoons are nauternal animals so when he was younger he would come climb in bed with me wanting to play when I was wanting to sleep. They don't understand "NO"when they're young lol.

I miss my pet raccoon 😢 Rescued him years ago. My cousin was helping cut down some tall trees and obviously he had zero idea that in one tree near the very top was a raccoon momma and her babies. Well he cut the tree down and literally two seconds after he heard babies inside and walked closer and felt horrible (even though he didn’t know bc these were full grown tall ass trees) when he seen the momma and one baby got killed. He scooped up the other three babies and got a huge crate and made them a warm place to have. He grabbed some replacement milk and tiny bottles and fed them. He called me and asked if I’d take one in and I didn’t hesitate. Miss my boy ❤ He was definitely a sneaky bandit but he definitely could make you laugh and they definitely are the best at cuddles 🥰

I had one whose mom got run over, littered boxed trained him right away. Set up a dog cage with a hammock and litter box and left the door open. He was a great pet until about 8 months when the mating season came. Got too mean, we let him out to go roam freely and he stopped coming back so often. Cool pet, but no way to get rabies shots for them, and I've read they are prone to getting rabies. I've been told my experience with them is typical, just thought I'd share.
That's what I heard about them too..
My landlord had 2 babies they took in from a tree they cut down. They lived with them for 2 years but started getting too wild and getting into everything and climbing everywhere so they let them out. They still come around because they leave food out for them. When they come the daughter goes out and the racoons keep their distance but they always keep looking back at her. Then the racoons come over to my unit and fight and scream all night. I heard they are very cute when they are babies.
That's what happens when they mature. They get the mating instinct and, if they aren't free to be outdoors to mate -- where they belong -- they will quit acting like a baby raccoon and engage in destructive behavior.
@@lisamay5649 I kind of figured that. I never planned on having one for a pet, but I'm glad I had the time with him as I did.
My dad had 21 of them over the years. Male, female, didn't matter they all got mean after about a year when mating season hit. He had a red fox and he said that was cool though.

You know Edgar Allen poe has a raccoon and look at him hes thriving, raccoons are just adorable

Another note when raccoons reach their pre adult faze they will be in a permanent rebellious faze for the rest of it’s life.
Raccoons are like this as juveniles, but t as soon as the reach puberty they become wild and become like a wild raccoon again. They will tear up your house, ignore their litter training and spread their urine everywhere to mark their territory, they will become extremely defensive and aggressive and may even attack their owners. as much as these raccoons in the video look like a good pet, raccoons should not be kept as pets. if you want a pet that lives up to what is described on the video, try a ferret instead. PLEASED always do you own research on an animal before bringing it into your home.
I'm glad ppl are saying this
It is also illegal to make wildlife into pets in many states. The rabies virus makes foxes, raccoons and skunks almost always killed upon being found by neighbors reporting you.

Raccoons stole my Rat poision, broke into my garage
That poor racoon at the last part was violated 💀
My “low maintenance” pet as it is ripping off my fingers:🥹
There is a behavioural change when they reach puberty 🥲
Thats the same warning I give about humans. They don't make good pets either.
Neutering exists if you're that concerned
@@ApexOceanPredator They don't let you do that with humans anymore.
@@mstrfool Ever been to Antartica?
@@chidubem826 Sadly no. Nearly, but the other applicant was returning and got the position. They also have crap internet there, and I hate freezing and going dormant. Kinda why I left Colorado.
Obviously the guy narrating this short has never had a “pet” raccoon. They’re all the cute and cuddly things he says until they reach puberty ( less than 1 year old) then all hell breaks loose. Male or female, I’ve had both, they get mean and not just a little mean. It would be like picking up a running chainsaw by the blade. They will F you up!!! Leave raccoons to Mother Nature, they’re no joke.
You're absolutely right
I say the same thing about ferrets. I've owned several and seeing them becoming a trendy pet makes me worry about people not researching them properly before committing to the task
The narrator might just be reciting a script.
OK, but how do you explain all of the clips in this video?
Yes this!! My aunt had one and she had to find a sanctuary to take him once he hit puberty/adulthood. Not a great pet and i hate seeing a video promoting them as such 😬
“You caaaaant eeeeaat at everybody’s hoooooouuuuse.”
Racoons in German: Washingbear! 😁❤
Having raised 5 raccoons, people need to be aware they are wild animals first and have instincts. They are like having a perpetual two year old in you home at all times and are curious about everything. Anyone getting a raccoon must realize that they can be a handful and even mean at times. If you don't have a clue about taking care of a wild animal, these are not your pets.
@terry
I was hoping someone would say how a coon is not such a great pet. They are quite the handful like you said and as they get about 1 to yrs old can get mean and nasty and can do some damage to hands or legs. You could see the wildness in their eyes
@paulhunter9613 You should not comment about them without knowing your facts. The reason that they get mean is that they want to breed. If you get a pet raccoon from a professional pet farm - they tell you that they will get mean IF YOU DON'T GET THEM FIXED. If you do that - THEY DON'T GET MEAN.
If you get them fixed and haven't been mean to them - they don't get mean! Keeping them in too small a cage is mean too.
@@rong9404 you shouldn’t post ANY comment when you are obviously clueless. Apparently your wisdom dictates that most animals will be mean unless fixed, is that why bunnies, dogs, cats, gerbils, horses, turtles, fish, penguins, dolphins, parakeets, are so nice cause they have been fixed?🤪as they say ya can’t fix stupid!
They are just too cute though.❤❤
I'm guessing a raccoon did the voice-over for this.
Those guys from raccoon federation yes
🤣🤣🤣
Rocket finally made himself comfortable
If I ever get a raccoon, I am calling it rocket raccoon.
OMG, most racoons are NOT low maintenance and most people are NOT up for the task.
"There are many reasons why a raccoon would make a great pet"
Narrator: is secretly a raccoon and is making a case for himself to come into your house and be fed and sheltered
Great now I’m imagining a raccoon speaking into a mic with this voice.
A man brought his raccoon into petco when i worked there. I got to touch Bandit's hands and kiss the little bandit mask cheek
*_Before i clicked on this video, it looked like he was washing his food in that water until I got to that part of the video to find out it was toys lol_*
Definitely a difference between having as a pet from birth and trying to domesticate one after it’s been outside for two or three years.
extreme difference raised my (f) fraye and (m) king as babys
RACCOONS ARE NOT DOMESTICATED ANIMALS. Videos like this are going to lead to problems.
Even raising them from birth is not the same as thousands of generations of domestication. They are wild animals with wild instincts and they can hurt people. Unless you are a wildlife rehabilitation expert you should not be keeping wild animals. Please for the love of god don't encourage the general public to think of them as domestic animals.
@@JK00JK you are right. They are born with instinct that can’t be just breed away. I would hope if you got 1 at birth it was because you were trying to save it. Everyone is trying to make anything a pet these days.
@@mcondry8036 I agree that, while some animals could be pets it doesn’t mean they should be pets. Raccoons are smart but they’re also pretty vicious when they want to be.
Only Time we had a grown pet raccoon was many years ago when my dad was alive living in Jacksonville ,Fl in a swampy area we used to feed all kinds of animals oneday a big stray cat brought a coon with her it was a grown female they would both come eat the food we left out so my dad would move it closer to the house until one-day we started leaving the door open and they would walk right in and eat the food and they decided to stay you could play with the coon as much as u wanted she would allow almost anything for the exception of picking her up u could push her nothing pick her up she would eat your ass up.. sadly one day about a year after they showed up they went outside and took off never saw them again:/
