"Flo, we're gonna need a smaller bottle."
Mr. raccoon-pants here might need an eye-dropper for a while. TEENY not-ringed-yet TAIL ALERT!
Gracias, ShizGirl :)

Extremely alert reader Nancy M. just sent this photo in of her cat "Dr. Moritz van Taco, MD" checking out the raccoon bébé post. Hee!

Now THAT'S a tiny raccoon!!!
Ahhhh!!!
I see a dipstick tail. :)
We hand-raised a bebe sqwerl (from about a day old) a few years back and had to use a doll bottle...
*splat!*
astonishingly delightful, can you imagine the tiny little gurbling sounds it makes?!!
I can hear it meeping and peeping now.
Now why can't something that anerable be knocking my trashcans over??
After finding a baby squirrel on the ground that had fallen out of tree in my front yard.. with my friend Cherry we took the baby to a local wildlife reserve.. one of the workers at Lichterman Nature Center said the little squirrel had to be stimulated to p like thier mothers do it.. or the infants will perish without this help.. I don't know what they did for a surrogate mother but the small squirrel did fine after a few months and they let it live on the compound there..yerpal MTM
Why hast thou forsaken me?
oh my, so fuzzy and tiny, he looks more like a color-point kitten than a baby raccoon!! He has a lot of hard work ahead of him if he's going to grow his stripes and bushy tail.
That's not a raccoon, it's a raccootini.
Beware!
THE LIMB SPLAY CAN KILL AT 50 PACES.
Good lord, how can you even TELL it's a racoon? Yowza.
At the Wildlife Rehab Center (St. Paul), we use syringes to feed the bebe squirrels, and syringes with special rubber tips to feed the bunnies.
Hope this lil' fella (gal?) makes it all right!
Ooooooooo! Needs a teeny tiny garbage pail to knock over.
"Now Rocky Raccoon he fell back in his room
only to find Gideon's bottle."
cute until it sinks it's teeth into the hand that feeds it. coons are nasty disease ridden beasts.
AAAAWWWW!!
He looks like a tiny monkey ;-)
Tail, button nose, and those splayed toes, oh my!
Wow, I had no idea that raccoons were born ringless. Cute!
I'll bet those claws can do some damage, tho.
Oh tiny little baby coon
You're hardly larger than a spoon
And yet we know that all-too soon,
You'll be cavorting 'neath the moon
Despite three pairs of hurtled shoon
My garbage can's in wrack and ruin.
/my apologies.
//bad but fun!
it looks so cute!
My, that is a funny-looking creature! Cute, but I'm slightly scared of the claws!
Gosh - rabbit kits and puppies and kittens and goodness only knows what all else have little teeny nails...
A thinker, I like...! ("Hurtled shoon" and all.)
:-D it's such a wonderful plural, isn't it.
...because what the world needs? Is more racoons. Right.
oops, I meant raccoons. Two c's.
Bravo on the poem, A thinker!
Wow...he's so pathetic. It's hard to believe that in another year someone will be taking pot shots at him, while he scampers away from the garbage. Awwww...let's enjoy him while we can.
Awwww! A baby Cling-on!
Too small : )

he's so itsy, i hope he makes it!
"chiefly dialect plural of SHOE"
ahhh... I get it now. Shoon. Shweet!
":-D it's such a wonderful plural, isn't it."
You betcha!
Wow - something *very* strange just happened. My 1st attempt at posting the comment above was hijacked - not once, but twice - by another Typepad blog called Bluegrass Roots.
Not only that, it was trying to post a comment that I hadn't written.
Weird, very weird.
I blame the pigbilly from the previous post.
*neer neer neer neer*
Twilight Zone theme.
Weird indeed!
LOL Theo! I bet you're right.
There's something missing from that pic, but I can't put my finger on it.
finger...
oh! Yeah, I know. It's 1.5 inch-long fuchsia shimmer gel nails.
"Weird indeed!"
Not only that, "my" comment was not in standard English. It was something along the lines of, "I think you do good music."
Well, you *are* the music critic, right?
It's one of several hats I wear - though none of them look like the GP's. ;)
Hi, I love "cute" stuff...this site is just adorable~ I'm sure to visit again and again...thanks for sharing the picks~
tiny raccoon is really sweet..Awwww~
LOL, E.C. Gosh, I'm going to sleep well tonight just from the CO comment humour.
You do, comrade!
*high fives all round*
g'night.
May herds of diary KoWz serenade you to sleep. (And no, there's no typo here.)
Meeeew! (Mocking KoW tone.) ;)
The only thing I want is for him to open his beedy eyes.
aaw. I didn't know they came "self-coloured"...
keep him (her?) warm, step mommy!
Eeek that's a cutie!
