Why would you take off your hat before going in the outhouse? It ain’t church. There’s even a nail in the door frame for the purpose. At first, I was thinking Dan’l, there, was trying to wipe himself with Rackety Coon Chile—which would have been funnier and more violence-inducing, I do believe.
One fine summer evening as the sun was going down, I was standing on my front stoop just taking in the pleasant weather, when what should emerge from the storm sewer on the corner across the street but a mama raccoon and two little ones. They made a beeline for my place, since I’d let my backyard return to nature. I waited until they were at the end of my driveway before saying “Hi, mom! Hi, kids!”. The little ones took alarm and scooted under my car. Mom just looked at me and hissed, so the kids, properly reassured that she had it all under control as usual, came out of hiding and followed her undeviating path to exactly where she wanted to go.
There’s a video currently circulating on some of the animal sites where a woman was shopping in a thrift store and saw what looked like a nice old vintage hat from the 1950s. She went to pick it up and found herself holding the shop’s cat, who was not pleased at having his nap disturbed.
I agree. While camping outside one night, a raccoon was trying to get into my cooler. I threw a sandal at him. He just looked at me a growled! I thought, okay, let me open it for you!

What happened? Did the racoon attack him as revenge for supposedly hanging another racoon?

If he’d only restocked the corncobs the day before like his wife wanted him to, this would never have happened.

This is hilarious. We find raccoons fascinating.

If you don’t raccoons are mean, then you should hear them during mating season.

I can’t hunk of a worse place to meet a raccoon then in a small building sitting on a hole above the ground with my genitalia exposed

On second glance, he was inside the outhouse with the live raccoon, trying to put it on his head. The live raccoon took exception to the idea.

He’s lucky the raccoon didn’t take the opportunity to do what is normally done in an outhouse.
