What a beautiful story Zayne and I thank you for sharing it. I live in Australia and we don't have raccoons; I've only seen them in pictures.

I've not personally raised a baby wild critter but I have a friend who's registered wild life carer and she often has a baby kangaroo hopping around her living room floor. Instead of pretty potted plants soaking up the morning sun inside her home, it's trays of grass. She uses these flat trays to teach her babies how to graze as she weans them off bottled milk. When they're weaned she releases them back into the wild.
