raccoon rescue!!

well, mr raccoon has been a frequent visitor on and off the last several days but he usually leaves on his own..last night i think he moved in! 430am this morning we hear rustling around in the garage, so we are hoping it is the cats, but no it is mr raccoon up in the corner of the gargae ..somehow he was up on the garage door, you know the one that opens and shuts with the garage door opener...i didnt have my glasses on but he was just a normal size one, so up and down, up and down ,up and down, over and over we did this to the door until he climbed or sorta slipped down the wall and then he runs to behind the floor to ceiling shelves..great..so i stayed home from work due to the heavy snowfall and we had to put the cats in the laundry room which they like with their new litter box as we are no longer leaving the garage open at night...anyway, we called the normal places that get rid of rodents..no dice today due to the bad weather, so i called the wildlife rescue and they said their sister company is a choice that humanely gets rid of wild animals...the guy-dave was so great, he talked and coaxed the raccoon into the animal carrier like he was his pet...what they do after they catch the animal they release the animal onto your property..not this time~mr raccoon was injured so dave will take him to the wild animal rescue center and their vet will take care of mr raccoon until he is better and then release him in a similiar setting...the cost was minimal and goes back to the rescue and then we wanted to donate money but the guy said just join the ohio wildlife center as that money goes to the center also..doing that was still cheaper than those other places that would not be humane with the animal..so all in all everyone won...and the cats have their garage back....
