Raccoons Need More Water

Raccoons seriously need to drink more water. And I will do whatever it takes to get this little crack-coon to drink from this mug. These tiny trash pandas are always eating. But as far as hydration goes? I’m not convinced. So I bring out the mug like: “Alright buddy… let’s make healthy choices.” Meanwhile he’s looking at me like I’m trying to sell him insurance. I’m like: “Don’t make this weird.” So then I bring out snacks first, to try to warm him up to the idea of being friends. At this point, he looks like he’s planning his escape. But pretty soon after he forget what he was scared about, and starts enjoying some snacks. Now watch this. I bring the mug back out… and instead of drinking from it… he starts washing his little hands in it. Maybe he thinks it’s just tiny portable hand sanitizer. Immediately he gets distracted by the bench for absolutely no reason. But then suddenly — SUCCESS. He finally starts drinking from the raccoon mug. Then he knocks the entire mug over… has a complete emotional breakdown and runs home. Isn’t NATURE IS SO AMAZING.
