Three Raccoons Get Puppies And Become Obsessed With Them | Cuddle Buddies

These three raccoons get their own puppy friends and become absolutely obsessed! Hercules, Boone, and Diddles all had a tough past and needed somebody to lean on. Luckily, they each met a doggo on their way. And being as awesome as all pups are, they helped these wild buddies blossom.

[@bonniebob2802]

Raccoons deserve more love. Not saying they should be pets, of course this was a rescue anyway, but I think a lot people mistreat them in the wild. Not sure if it’s how we’re taught growing up but I hope videos like this change things. Same goes for possums.

[@anna_in_aotearoa3166]

Racoons' sheer level of intelligence is something that has been really surprising to me to learn more about? We don't have them here, but I've seen quite a few vids lately featuring them both as urban wild animals and as rescues, and they seem to have both a strong sense of humour and some pretty amazing creative problem-solving skills! I imagine they probably get mistreated fairly frequently in places where they're more commonly seen as as "pest" animals, so I'm glad wildlife rescuers are sharing stories like these ones? Hopefully it helps develop more empathy for free raccoons. Always appreciate the sensible disclaimers C.B. channel includes too, re. non-domesticated rescue animals and what's best for their welfare!

[@CuddleBuddiesChannel]

You bring up an important point. Raccoons, like many other wild animals, deserve respect and compassion, both in the wild and in rescue situations. It's crucial to appreciate their place in the ecosystem and understand that they play vital roles in maintaining ecological balance. Videos and stories like the one you watched can indeed help change perceptions and encourage people to treat wild animals with kindness and care. This awareness is essential for the well-being of all wildlife, including possums and raccoons. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and your concern for these creatures. 🦝❤️🌿🐾

[@franny249]

Thank you all for your kindness. Your incredible people to help the injured raccoons. Rescuers are the best people!

[@bkm2797]

Too cute! Raccoons are such funny critters, and if you ever get one stuck between a wall or in your attic, using a safe cage place inside a fresh egg (they can't resist) and you will have them safely inside in no time. Thank you for sharing!

[@CuddleBuddiesChannel]

Raccoons are indeed known for their clever and mischievous nature. Your tip about using a safe cage and fresh egg to capture a raccoon safely is an interesting and useful suggestion for those facing such situations. Thank you for sharing your insights and for enjoying these heartwarming stories! 😊🦝🥚🐾

I know raccoons and l love them. I believe they would make great pets because they actively seek human company and really try to get into our houses. Sadly my government is not animal friendly, so that is not possible. Watching this video showed me how well raccoons adapt to family living. It made me smile.

[@CuddleBuddiesChannel]

Raccoons are undoubtedly charismatic and can be quite friendly when seeking human interaction. However, it's important to remember that they are wild animals and have specific needs that can be challenging to meet in a home environment. In many places, it's also illegal to keep raccoons as pets due to the potential risks and health concerns. Videos like the one you watched can provide heartwarming insights into raccoons' adaptability and ability to form unique bonds with humans. But it's crucial to remember that wild animals are best appreciated from a respectful distance in their natural habitats, as they play important roles in their ecosystems. Thank you for your understanding and love for these remarkable creatures! 🦝❤️🏡

[@jewdd1989]

I love seeing animal relationships, it’s more than possible if done right and I think worth it. It makes sense on a survival aspect to make friends with a big dog that can protect you too so there’s that point also

Raccoons are very intelligent. For 10 days after getting one of my cats, years ago, I continued to find my cat's bowl of dried food empty, every single morning when I woke up. This was perplexing as the cat was only 3 months old. The bowl was in the kitchen. You guys can guess what happened. Every night, after I went to bed, a Raccoon entered through the kitty door leading into the kitchen and helped himself to anything and everything I left out. Luckily he/she couldn't open the fridge, and never thought to open the cabinets! Raccoons don't have thumbs, but are capable of opening nearly anything they put their mind to by using both manipulating paws. Cute to see one raised with puppies; cause he thinks he is one!

[@powerzx]

All animals change their behaviour and get more friendly, when they have plenty of food. Even humans gets wild when they are hungry. :)

[@CuddleBuddiesChannel]

You make a valid point! Access to an adequate food supply can have a significant impact on the behavior and overall well-being of animals, including humans. When animals have enough food and their basic needs are met, they tend to be more content and less stressed, which can result in friendlier and more relaxed behavior. It's a fundamental aspect of animal welfare and a reminder of the importance of providing for the needs of all living creatures. 😊🍏🐾
