Hay Jim! Your karma bucket is overflowing with love and rewards!

Hello my name is Kim from San Francisco I love you so much you inspired me to get a coon cat. And I daily thank you for inspiring me

[@calvinkatt662]

Exactly. He's figured out that if you get to the restaurant before everyone else, you get more hot dogs.

Baby raccoon is adorable and so gentle and trusting. Thank you for all you do, James.

[@tamarrosenberg-walker7599]

He wanted the first round. Smart baby lol. James we all know raccoons out during the day does not mean they are rabid. He's probably a male kicked out of the den. I love raccoons and often see the mommas out during the day looking for food. That myth is why raccoons get such a bad rap. Thanks for all the love you give these beautiful angels.

[@shelley9263]

He’s a special baby and his fur is so beautiful. He really likes you, James. ☺️

[@camillefulton7709]

MAKES ME CRY, HOW TRUSTING HE IS OF YOU, ALLOWING YOU TO PAT HIM, HE LOVES YOU AS YOU LOVE THEM. 😘 HOW HEARTWARMING YOU MUST FEEL SO PRIVILEGED, YOU WONDERFUL MAN.

[@MrDoodlebug68018]

Love raccoons we had a pet raccoon when I was little. He rode our bikes with us and our pony's he went everywhere with us. We only lived 1 block from the park and he used to go to my sister's softball games till he decided she needed his help playing 1st base. He would climb the tree next to the house so he could get on the roof and and sit by our bedroom window and chatter till we let him inside. He also had his own little pan of water to wash his food off. His name was Bandit of course and I loved him to the Moon! ❤🌙

[@peacenowar2298]

You sound like an elderly gentleman from the USA. I am also a 70 years old Iranian, a retired engineer living in the USA for 50+ years. I truly believe the best feeling one can get is in helping other beings. The tune in your sound shows how good of a person you are and how good you were feeling when feeding this baby raccoon. Even this animal felt the good vibe from your voice. I wish there were more caring people slike you in this world and especially among the world politicians.

Thank you for posting this kind and gentle act toward nature. These kind of videos are very educational and teach people that wild animals aren’t the vicious and attack Kind of animals people make them out to be. Animals often attack out of fear or cruelty towards them just as we humans would it treated that way.

You can see that they love you. Your a good man.

Hi Jim thank you for this throwback video so sweet you're such a good dad to all your fur babies

James all animals respond to energy so this little guy is responding to your gentle kind energy James which is absolutely beautiful to watch. Also if it's true I don't know but rumor has KZbin is going to do away with the comment section your fans will no longer be able to leave a comment for you . If this is true it will happen September 18th so if I don't talk to you before the cut off just know I simply adore honey. ❤ 🐈

I've had 2 young (not young anymore) raccoons living in my back yard since hurricane irma tore through. i fed them a little canned cat food and they've been coming back nightly ever since. there wasn't a mother around so i guess she lost them and they just sort of found me. they've been no trouble, and they're fun to watch. in the back corner of my yard there's a tree that hangs close over the top of the privacy fence. i put up a box for them there and showed them how to get in it. not sure if they sleep there everyday, but i have seen them playing in the grass/weeds back there (it's a quiet corner we don't really use). a few days ago one of them looked his head out while i was throwing a stick for my dog (labrador). and yes they get along with the dog just fine. she was just a pup when she met them.

[@angiadiamonte4632]

Hi Jim, I JUST stumbled across your channel. I was beyond thrilled to come across someone like you, who has the same kind of relationship with a wild raccoon as I have with mine. Our situations are absolutely Identical. It's Amazing ! I named my buddy Bandit. Probably a million others with the same name, lol. This started with me around a month and a half ago. One night bandit came wondering into my garage. I Immediately started talking to him as a pet animal. Within the first half hour or so, he ate out of my hand. I can't describe the elation. Now he jumps in my lap, eats and wraps his little hands around my finger. Tries to touch noses with me. He completely stole my heart !!! I am able to pet him as well, although some times he just moves a little, depending on how he feels 😉 I never ever knew that this could become such a beloved pet/friend. And like yours, mine takes his time to chew every bit a hundred times, lol. He seems almost human like. The way he uses his little hands. They are clever and adventurous animals. Now he loves our 86 year old mother. I would have never expected to see our mother feed a wild raccoon. But he is so timid, and loving, she couldn't resist. And she won't go near ANYTHING else. This is how special these animals are. I'm not saying all of them are. But this is a very special pet to our family. He won our hearts for ever. Thank you for such an incredible, amazing video, filled with genuine Love !!! 👍❤️

It's so lovely you feed them all the time and even buy their own food. Also I love how sweet you talk to them.
