I was just outside in the dark putting out dry cat food, mixed with canned cat food, peanut butter sandwiches, and a big bowl of water.

I have been in touch with a wild animal expert, and she has told me that these little raccoons will survive with my help, and the help of grandmother and aunt raccoons in the area. They form extended family groups, and will help to care for the babies of related females in the area.

I have to do this until November to ensure their health and safety. It won't be a problem, as I love the wildlife in our area. There were a couple of them in the trees above my head when I was putting out the food. I talk to them, but I will never tame them, as their wildness is so very important to their survival.

When they line up looking at me with their little masks, and fluffy littly furry baby bodies, I can hardly stand it. They are so very cute.
