A little visitor

I happened to check on the dogs when they were being suspiciously quiet outside this afternoon, and this is what was keeping them busy:

Yes, a baby raccoon in our lilac bush. Jeff and I finally managed to get it out and it's now under the neighbors' porch. Fun.

I severely trimmed the lilac so it won't be so attractive to wayward mammal babies. Cordy, however, is inconsolable that we scared away her new friend.
