One night I was feeding the oft-neglected next-door office cat on my front porch. He liked to be out at night, but he also liked somebody “watching his six” when he was eating.
I glanced down the sidewalk and this huge raccoon is marching up the sidewalk, towards the stairs and us. I grabbed the cat and ran in the house, leaving the food for racoon. I probably had the same look as the pictured orange cat.
After that, Jackson ate inside, if he wanted to eat. He got used to it :)
