I celebrated end-of-fiscal-year by adopting a raccoon. For a while I wasn't sure I was going to survive the insanity.
I didn't want the typical raccoon names like "Rascal," "Ringo," "Bandit," etc. but I kept close to roots. He's named after Sterling North, the author of Rascal, a literary name after all.
As an adoption gift, I got a flying carpet! I've always wanted one. Pity most of the critters are still sliding rather than walking—including this new guy. Neewa is still walking, though.
I notice Sterling says he "likes camping," so when is Ganz going to oblige all the raccoons (not to mention bears) and create a camping/Northwoods theme?
The quickest way to give a raccoon a health boost is give him a bath...LOL. So I did. Result: happy raccoon.
