I have a home office and put in a few hours every now and then working....lately I have been entering my office and discovering the outside office door open....I blamed it on my son, etc etc.....a few weeks ago I figured out our cat was climbing up the door and opening the latch to get in and eat, I keep the cat food inside the door....well, last night about 2am the door is shaking like crazy...I am sitting there cussing the dam*ed cat and all at once I realize the dog AND cat are looking at the door also.... I ease over to the front door and open it a little and the biggest raccoon I have ever seen is hanging on the door latch and starts growling at me....I tried to shake him off the door but he just growled louder each time.....now you gotta understand, it's 2am, I am in my BVD's(not a pretty sight either) and a dam*ed raccoon is trying to break into my house....Our house has 2 front doors, so I went to the other door which opens up behind the raccoon...armed with the only thing I could find, a plastic snow shovel, I commenced to beat the crap outta the coon.....I walloped him a few good ones and he finally falls to the porch, then sits there and growls at me and now our dog has entered the frey .....the dog was smarter than me, he kept a distance.....now, after beating the coon till my arms are tired and having him pinned to the concrete with the blade of the shovel, I yelled to my wife to get me something to put his body in....well, He was not ready for a body bag at all.....he just about tore the end off my shovel and went up a tree in the front yard with the dog chasing and barking....a few minutes ago I returned from lunch, parked at the curb, walk towards the house and that same dam*ed coon is standing by the tree growling at me again.....see what tonite brings I guess....

I would suggest you call an exterminator who will capture it and release it somewhere away from your home. Or call the DNR and have them come and get it. If it is that agressive, it might have rabies or something and would need to be put down. We've had this problem before.

I get Raccoons and Possums in the summer. I borrow my neighbors trap and dump them a couple of miles away in the woods. They just be hungry. I know when my neighbor catches them... I hear his 22.-- The A.C. way.

Found this for you you may need to cut everything in half.

Illinois Raccoon Supper
3 to 4 raccoons, 4 to 6 pounds each
5 tablespoons salt
2 teaspoons pepper
2 cups flour
1 cup shortening
8 medium onions, peeled
12 small bay leaves
Cut prepared raccoon in serving pieces. Reserve meaty backs and legs for baking. Cook remaining pieces in water to make broth for gravy and dressing. Add small amount of seasonings. Simmer until meat is tender; strain, and use only the broth. Sprinkle back and leg pieces with salt and pepper. Dredge with flour. Heat shortening in heavy skillet. Add meat; brown on all sides. Transfer pieces to roaster; add onions and bay leaves. Cover. Bake in 350 F. oven 2 hours, or until tender. Make gravy by adding flour to drippings in pan. Use raccoon broth for liquid. Serve pieces over dressing (below), pass gravy. Serves 24. Dressing
3 loaves day-old bread, crumbled
2 ½ teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon pepper
2 ½ teaspoons powdered sage
4 eggs, beaten
1 1 ½-ounce package dehydrated onion soup
4 stalks celery, chopped
½ cup raccoon broth
Bake in large shallow pan in 350 F. oven 30 minutes.

Larry, I got a live trap that he should fit in unless it is like the pet coon we had as kids that weighed 50 lbs (now that was one big coon) Al is right it is hunger and probably smells the cat food. They are really smart and can be very mean, be careful and if you need the trap give me a call

Tangled,
Cool story, are you sure it's a racoon. I've seen the scary movies. Did someone bury this coon in a "special" spot a few days ago ?

About 5 years ago I made a bag of microwave popcorn and did not finish the entire bag. The next morning (or possibly afternoon) when I got up and walked into the living room, I noticed the screen door to the patio was standing wide open. I was a little surprised to say the least. Apparently I had left the half full (or half empty) bag of popcorn sitting next to the loveseat. When I walked over to the patio I could see the bag lying out in the grass. Apparently one of the many raccoons got hungry. I was lucky nothing else got torn up and now I at least lock the screen at night.

When i was a kid i used to go coon hunting with a friend (20 years older then me)I would carry the Basket on my back walk around the woods for hours chasing a coon dog treeing racoons. Believe me when i say they are very visious fighters. they can rip a dog apart. This friend used to buy the coon dogs down south and he had good ones.They would get the coons by their necks and kill them.(After he shot them out of the trees) I've seen some real big ones. I wouldn't suggest using a plastic shovel!!! 9mm???

I would call DNR and have them trap it before it has little ones in the spring.

Wildcat - You had a pet coon as a kid that weighed 50lbs???

Butchchee has rats in New York that weigh 75lbs

That is a big coon,,,,,Granny Clampett could make lots of stew out of him
