1. At first I thought those were raccoons

but looking closer I don't think they are. What are they?

2. Baby raccoons

My little brother had one as a pet back in the 70s. He was the sweetest little thing - mischievous, but no more than my little brother. He used to crawl up on the couch when I was sitting there reading, and take my glasse off. The he would run off and I would shake my head and put my glasses back on and continue reading. In a couple of minutes he would appear on the other en of the couch and bound along the back of the couch to where he would jerk my glasses off and then disappear. This would usually go on for 4 or 5 times. LOL

3. must just be raccoons from a different area, then

because ours had black running down between their eyes all the way to their noses.

5. Like a lot of animals, the babies

don't have all of the attributes and or coloring that you'd associate with an adult.

4. The picture of mischief...it's amazing how something so fucking cute can cause

so much chaos; we have a bit of a problem with them on our deck. On several occasions one of my roommates has called me out of bed to let him in the back door because there is one raccoon ( huge sucker ) that seems to have taken up residence out there, and he usually hangs out on the steps.
