Re: Raccoons

She's never seen one Cathy, but I have no doubt she'd go after it. She's
very territorial. She goes after dogs (anything smaller than a German
Shepherd) and whips their butts just for having the effrontery to walk
down our sidewalk. She was going crazy at the front window one night,
because there was a possum on the front porch. I went out and shooed it
away. She does not like anything on her turf or near her mama.

Went out on the deck to let Jason the cat in and as he was entering, I 
saw a large raccoon on the railing near my peanut bird feeder. 
Naturally I chased him off, but was surprised at Jason's "live and let 
live" attitude. Not that I expected that he would go after a raccoon as 
big as he is, but that he was so calm about its proximity. Pam - has 
Sugar ever gone after a raccoon? What does she do when one encroaches 
on her territory?
