So I got home from work yesterday morning to find the scared little baby raccoon on my front porch.
I think he was there to eat the cat food I leave out for my cats.
But as I got home th dogs went nuts when they heard my car in the driveway and started jumping on the door and scared him so bad. When I found him he was just huddled in the corner. I got him to move to the outside of the railings.. Safer there if the dogs ran out the front door...
I took this pic. And almost an hour later he was still there. I tried to offer food. But that scared him enough to jump down. He spent the day under one of our unmoving cars.. I left some food and water for him.

I had 2 babies hiding on my porch last night because the 'local' dogs came running through the yard @minx267 ; so I feel ya. I generally get about 18 per night to eat the cat food I put out for them.
