I guess Disney's Pocahontas made it cool to have a raccoon friend. Those fat little furry blubber balls of teeth and rabies are NOT good pets.

Even the non-rabid ones are super hard to take care of. They’re not hard to keep alive, but they don’t want to be captive and will destroy your house.

It’s a real travesty that we haven’t worked harder to domesticate them.
