Breakfast Guest
This morning before leaving for work, my Momma peeked outside to see if Polite Boy and Too-G were around waiting for their breakfast. They were! But sitting right there with them, trying to be just as cute, was this fella. This is not the sick one mentioned the other day. This guy comes around occasionally and tries to charm Momma, not realizing she has a heart of ice when it comes to raccoons.
So, this guy sat in a line with the cats, in a cat-like pose, perhaps hoping to fool Momma into thinking he was an odd looking cat. He would also lie down on his stomach and rest his chin atop his front paws, very dog-like. He was workin' it. But no go. My Momma left for work and while she was out front at the garage she called to the cats, hoping they would come around front and she could feed them there.
It worked! Too-G came trotting. Polite Boy came trotting. Raccoon came trotting.
My Momma didn't give anybody breakfast.




Wow! That's not a breakfast guest I'd like to run into!

I agree with Derby...plus, doesn't everybody who isn't a cat aspire to be a cat?

Poor cats. Hope they didn't starve waiting for the Racoon to go away.

Tough call. I understand not wanting to encourage the raccoon, and I'm sure my Dad would have made the same call, but he sure is cute...

A racoon impersonating a cat. Tsk. Of all the low things...my female said to tell you that it's kind of cute, though.
