1. Why don't you put this in the Lounge?

They're adorable - I already have 3 so won't take you up on the offer :)

3. Ian, good luck.....

I'd take them if my landlord would allow it. They are adorable and blessings on you for taking them in. I will pass the word around here (I work in Lexington) with these adorable photos!

4. Blessings? Maybe. But then again, I *did* watch a certain episode of Little House on The Praerie...

with my daughter a few months ago...



Season 1 Episode 10 “The Raccoon”- Little House on the Prairie

Laura breaks her porcelain doll while playing catch with her sister Mary. She is very upset and her father can’t put it back together. Mary goes to the store to try and buy a new doll head for Laura’s doll, but she doesn’t have enough money. On the way home, her dog Jack begins barking at a bush. Mary looks in and finds a baby raccoon. She decides to take it home to give to Laura so she won’t feel so bad about her doll. Laura loves the raccoon and wants to keep it as a pet. She names him Jasper and wants to keep him in the house with her. When her father comes home, he initially tells her she can’t keep him because he’s a wild animal that will grow up and not be tame. After a few words with his wife, Charles decides to give in and let the girls keep the raccoon.

Laura is allowed to keep Jasper in the barn. She gives him chicken eggs and teaches him tricks. She brings him to school for show and tell. Their dog, Jack, does not like Jasper much and always barks at him. The school children like seeing Jasper and get too excited, which scares Jasper and he snaps at the kids. Laura is a little upset and believes that Jasper would never bite anyone.

On Sunday morning, Laura goes into the barn and gives Jasper an egg before the family leaves for church. While they are at church, Jasper gets off his rope and sneaks through a window in the house. Inside, he makes a big mess, knocking over dishes and food. Charles becomes very angry and takes Jasper into the woods to let him go. When Charles gets back home, he finds Jasper back at the barn again. He realizes that Jasper will just keep coming back, so he makes a cage for Jasper to stay in.

Laura and Mary go to the barn to feed Jasper again. Her dog Jack follows her and begins barking at Jasper. Mary tries quiet Jack, but he keeps barking. When Laura opens the cage to feed Jasper, he bites Laura on the arm and then runs out and bites Jack’s paw when Jack tries to get him. Jasper then runs off into the woods. Laura is upset because she wants to keep Jasper, so she has Mary promise not to tell about Jasper biting her and Jack. She knows her father won’t let her keep Jasper if he finds out he bit her.
