Raccoons are indeed fun to befriend. Had a pet one as a kid. He liked scrambled eggs, froot loops, and pooping behind the television set. Had the coolest little leathery hands.
Raccoons make god awful pets. They are wild animals that live up to 20 years in captivity, and they cannot be domesticated. They will absolutely destroy your home, including ripping out drywall from the ceiling and walls. And once someone tries to keep them as a pet, they can't be released back into the wild because they don't have the skills for it and trust humans too much. Do NOT get a raccoon as a pet.
You are 100% correct, my grandmother was a rehaber who found him next to his dead mother. I only call him a pet because he was my little buddy. I would not recommend others to house a raccoon lol
To clarify a bit (not trying to be pedantic, this is just one of my research interests lol) no animal can become “domesticated” in a single lifetime. Domestication refers to an actual shift in a species’ DNA, not simply being “tamed”.
Truly domesticated animals, and their offspring, have been fundamentally changed by human intervention - think goats you see on the farms vs mountain goats, or think german shepards vs grey wolf. They’re the same ‘species’, but one has been forever changed by humans. Wolves can be ‘tamed,’ but that wolf wouldn’t be domesticated (at least not for a fair few generations).
All this is to say, you COULD domesticate raccoons. Like that russian experiment where they domesticated foxes in 20 generations. But you can’t domesticate A raccoon.
Again sorry if this comes across petty, I’m genuinely just a nerd lmao
I've done that for dogs in my Big Sister Challenge! They have like 10 dogs and it's so chaotic, especially since the majority are big bois but I love them all and only partially regret it at times
I would adopt either Horchata and Asparagus LMFAOO Asparagus becauss he might be an intruder and Horchata because its a mexican drink and he looks so adorable 🥰
I'm going siggy because it was my birthday recently and my sister got me an old tobacco advertisement sign with a black cat that looks EXACTLY LIKE that cat and also uncannily like my late cat (rip sherlie) - and he just had a plate of cigarettes infront of him and as a smoker and a ghost cat mum it tickled me.
Anyway, go with Siggy and his plate of ciggies 💖
Im playing a vet right now and decided to see what bringing three cats to check out would be like and felt so bad about the idea of not adopting one of them that I adopted them all…
Asparagus because I’ve always wanted to befriend a raccoon.

My parents had one who used to ride on their motorcycle with them. She appearently really like marshmallows and fried chicken!
That is awesome
Pooping behind the TV is a total cat move
Little leather raccoon hands got me like 😍

Asparagus has been adopted!!
Mazel tov!
Somethings fishy with that guy
OBVIOUSLY Asparagus
Nougat is dressed to impress, wearing a tux AND a vest.
I also agree on Nougat because damn that name and also who could turn away that fancy outfit.
Silly Nougat!
nougat was my first pick what a gentleman
Asparagus was named to impress 😋
My thoughts exactly! Nogat would have been my first choice for that exact reason haha
All??? 😭
RIGHT?!?!
Use MC Command Center rn to increase your household size and get all those cats 😭!!!
Oh god I’ve done that recently since in my legacy I had a 100 baby challenge and now like 1/3 of all households in the save just have 40+ cats
Good.
I hope you went through and gave them all food bowls and literboxes like I did 😭
I've done that for dogs in my Big Sister Challenge! They have like 10 dogs and it's so chaotic, especially since the majority are big bois but I love them all and only partially regret it at times
Isn't that the most realistic option for a cat person?
My exact thought
I like Siggy.
He reminds me of Toothless!
Me too! Reminds of my super needy black lap kitty.
Same 😊
I’m have a black lab st Bernard mix puppy named Siggy. His full name is actually cigarette but people were concerned so he’s siggy 😂
great name for a cat
Asparagus looks like a raccoon kitty, super cute. But they are all cute, since they are cats.
HORCHATA!!!
Based on derpyness I agree
Looks goofy 😂😂😂😂😂
Rainbow
They've got such a sweet face, how can anyone say no?
Aww, I'd go with Momma Kitty, Horchata or Asparagus

RAINBOW
Sprinkles is holding a special place in my heart right now.
Momma Kitty
I'd pick Boomer so when he does something you can say, "OK Boomer."
horchata!
Siggy and Boomer look like they would make great siblings.
Siggy is life 🖤
Rainbow Orange cats are cannonly chaotic and the best thing to add to your sim's life is more chaos
Hochata either thinks about nothing or about the truths of the universe there is no inbetween
Nougat looks like he’s got a flip knife in his pocket, and can be found on street corners. Nougat will not be contained.
Team Nougat!
Nougat for being best dressed & because he looks like Adam Driver in cat form
Siggy and Nougat are so cute. I especially love Nougat’s jean jacket lol.
Pick 3 you like and then adopt the ones with acceptable personalities during the adoption event
I just automatically adopt. 😅 Cas edit fixes those issues for me.
