Raccoons are actually highly employable, mainly as weapons designers or auto mechanics.

A few people keep raccoons as pets but from what I hear it's hard to pull off, they won't learn commands and will escape at the earliest opportunity. Also they are dextrous enough to unscrew jars so unless you're really careful they will get into your household cleaning supplies out of curiosity.

This and all the other raccoon stuff is making me feel better. It's good to know I have a future as a mechanic.

Also: You can domesticate a raccoon, if you're okay with having a clever 15yr+ old toddler with opposable thumbs in your house that thinks it's funny to flush your keys down the toilet (note: It is)

Back in the 90s, my Oma used to feed raccoons (by hand as well as by catfood bowl).
Thems was trainable.
The issue right now is finding my scanner. I know my folks have photos.

When I was a janitor I'd have to help those guys get out of the dumpsters a few times. A wooden pallet and some leftovers, and they'd be on their way. The little ones would want to climb on you sometimes if you were sharing snacks, but gently caress that.

Kinda-ish. They'd be better outdoor pets than indoor pets, although most municipalities don't like people keeping them around because they breed pretty fast and are particularly susceptible to rabies.
