Thankfully, I don't have to put out water for them because the wildlife feeder with all the cat food leftovers is right next to a stream coming from the waterfall.

How can they get the water so dirty? Even just one raccoon makes a mess of the water. They are cute though. I was tossing little bits of a banana to one once and after the banana was gone he slowly walked up to me then bent over and sniffed my shoe and then walked away. I was scared he might bite me but I was too curious about what he was going to do to move. But, they can be a problem too when they're tearing things up and eating the cat's food and you feed 50 ferals a day and don't have money to feed them too. Just read that the babies leave the home range after a certain age. So that's why they disappear.

I loose a lot of suet feeders that way. My outside water bowls are always dirty in the AM. One has to wash their food before eating it. I think they also take a bath before eating. >
