Raccoon was like: alright ima snake

Very interesting tactic. The raccoon opts to hug the railing and shimmy in order to only allow the cat to strike its back and top, while being able to continue pushing forward in order to force the cat up and away from the food that it wanted. It made itself into a wedge.

Ha ha , the Racoon weve & ducked like a boxer against the cats strikes

Racc was all boxer style!! Head down and taking ground!

Keeping food out constantly like that is a very bad decision as is not eliminating a possible threat to your animal.

Love how, despite the cat's sharp claws coming out at him, he just proceeds to bulldoze her out of the way and get to her food. 😀

He didn't do anything to the cat, even where it attacked. It would be easy for the raccoon to tear the cat apart, but he didn't want to hurt her, he was just hungry. :) 😘🦝 -He just pushed her out of the way. 😘🐈‍⬛

Raccoon was probably very hungry, which gives it more of a drive to get the food....

Obviously these two know eachother - uncomfortably. The cat was not clawing, just boxing the racoon's head. This was probably not the first time they've played out this little routine. Very cute.

I am a wildlife re-habber, mostly raccoons. The raccoon does NOT have rabies. In a fight situation they tend to salivate.

I was right, cats usually get the better of most animals. but Raccoons are tougher than sh*t.

Not much scares a raccoon. Backed into a corner they will take on a human.

The raccoon ate that cat’s lunch.

Racoon used the bulldozer technique

Must be a house cat, I don't think the cat would of given up so easily if it's next meal wasn't a meow away. And a good tactic by the raccoon head down and push forward. Basically the cat had no where to go accept down.

Great job raccoon! They're so cute the way they get so crunchy with their little bandito snoots 🙂

Sometimes you just gotta go for it.

Wow that was a smart move

Its time to get a Racoon for a Pet and toss the cat outside

The fluffy bandit strikes again

From what I've read, Raccoons are not really fighters and will typically AVOID a fight at all costs like he/she did here. The Raccoon just went UNDER the cat and only to get to the food and never raised a paw not even once. It's salivating smelling that cat food! 😁

"Your little "pap-paps" don't fear me!

You shall not pass! Well, okay!

They r n the coon family.💛.....Coon Cats💜

lol that raccoon took 0 damage

Raccoons don’t know the meaning of personal space

cat Might be declawed

Aw. The raccoon just wanted the food

Im glad the cat didnt get hurt.

i wondered why Groot did chose a raccoon, not a cat. Now I know

I am hoping it was just salivating over the thought of food and not infected with early stage distemper or rabies.

Racoon was hungry .Racoon great animal

One time I watched my cat slap a raccoon in the face then the raccoon just looked at me in shock.

Who knew raccoons ha fighting techniques wow I've never seen anything like that before.

I am definitely a fan of both of those two critters and really want to get two of each as pets! 🐱 🦝 🐱 🦝

Adorable and adorable 💕

Raccoons will risk life and limb for food.

I would not let that racoon get too comfortable on my front porch like that. They are much bigger than cats.

RACCOONS ARE RELENTLESS!!!!!!

This cat was pawing on the head, and almost got him in the eye, but this raccoon was desperate for food. Raccoons are tough animals with thick fur and hide, so you are right, the cats claws would have little effect on body or head strikes. The eyes and nose would be the most effective and sensitive areas for a cat to strike the raccoon. I have an 11 pound female all white cat who did exactly that to a much larger male raccoon a couple years back. This raccoon was not starving. He was probably a 20 - 30 pound animal feeding out of local dumpsters and such. I watched the entire encounter from a window facing the backyard. Our two cats were both relaxing in the yard watching the raccoon digging around in the grass for a while. Both of them had the higher ground advantage. Cali, the cat in my profile pic was up on a wood pile, and Courtney, the bigger white cat was in a yard chair. Courtney is not much of a hunter, and usually leaves the smaller animals alone. But she is very territorial, and more likely to be aggressive with larger animals in the house or yard. I have had to stop her at least three times from attacking leashed dogs walking by the house. She would flee from a real aggressive dog, but if the animal shows any timidness at all, she is likely to go into full on attack mode. She even fights off local tom cats that try to wander through the yard. I have had to go out there to break up a few of those standoffs as well. At one point the raccoon got curious and approached Courtney. She remained relaxed until he went under the chair. At that point, she stood up and began showing a more defensive / aggressive posture. The coon then meandered back to the front side of the chair, placed his paws onto the front of the seat and tried to sniff Courtney. She let out a growl that sounded like a bobcat and struck him once right in the nose. He spun around and fled the yard as fast as he could with Courtney right on his tail and they both went out of sight. I went out there to be sure the cat would be safe, but it all happened way too fast. In a little while Courtney returned, but that raccoon never has come back to this yard. There are much safer places for him to find a meal. My guess is that having the higher ground advantage, and getting the coon with a powerful strike in his most sensitive area - his nose, was what led to this outcome. Plus, as i said earlier, this raccoon was huge, but not desperate for food.

The raccoon will win every time

The raccoon didn't even intend to hurt the cat just wanted to get to the food, such a sweet animal.

Wild vs domesticated in a nutshell.

Coon said " Get outa my way!"

He just wanted the food lolll

I would really worry about that raccoon drooling like it was and its' aggression. If that was my cat I wouldn't have been filming but running out the door screaming to scare off that raccoon to protect my cat.

Called the cats bulff.

Rocket's gotta eat

Raccoon Federation vs Cat Nation

Just a little sniff!!!

So, they really are "robbers" huh? lol

The standard rule of thumb is as I have been told: Whenever a feral, or domestic animal is bitten, or scratched by a wild animal, it is automatically classified as having rabies. In my older videos, I have two rabid cats that was euthanized by the veterinarian after animal control picked them both up, and were observed. A rabies declaration was issued. The black cat had a racoon claw swipe on its forehead with fur missing. Both cats were in two different stages of rabies. One was muddled, the other was aggressive. The video is in my sort by date added (oldest) video drop down list.

Another ignoramus that doesn't need Animals .....here here Peta 💪🤗

Raccon will destroy a cat to pieces in a minute without warning

I tell you what my dog wouldn't take that ...

The fight i didn't expect to see

All about who is hungriest!

I know a guy who killed a raccoon with a chain. Ten cats couldn’t have shredded his arm the way that raccoon did. He’ll Carry the scars to his grave. It’s foolish to try and compare the two animals.

I had this problem once.....bought a 22 caliber.

Clever❤❤❤❤❤

I watch this when it only has 12K views

Depends on the breed of cat, demesticated or feral

Strong move

0:33 + 0:56 hahahaha thats disgusting. i love raccoons.

I was always told that if you see a raccoon in the daytime it had rabies

Racoons are smarter than cats and this one had some practical knowledge. It hugged the railing because it knew a cat's strategy is always to knocks things down!

They are not cute animals. My barn cat has been close to death twice due to raccoon attacks, both times requiring vet visits, so I started stepping in and evened up the score. Human 3, raccoons 0. Plenty of wild country out there for them. If they want to attack my cat it will cost them.

it takes a few hits to take the prize.

this was amazing

Peek a boo fighting style

Rabies thru Silva?

I hope you helped raccoon with food and water.

1:12

All roddens are petrifyin

It has rabies

It's drooling, it's out in the daytime and does't run when it sees a human. Beginning of rabbles maybe?

No way would I of been filming my cat with a raccoon wanting to eat the cat food. Raccoons are very territorial and will kill a cat over food when they are hungry. Who ever filmed this your lucky your cat did not get hurt bad or killed.

You think that’s funny. Raccoon can’t really hurt your can’t🤣🤣

This could have ended really badly for the cat.

Well..wonder what happened to the trash panda. I know what I would have done.

that raccoon is a bully. That cat should've stood its ground....it's that CAT'S food, not that thievin' raccoon's.....i agree with the comment about getting a 22 caliber to take care of the problem.

Yak she mash ?! is it a panda?

😻🦝💖

My old neighbor cats would have eaten that raccoon

22lr pop pop

Raccoons are scavengers and farmers in WI consider them a nuisance. I was told that if I saw one on the road to run it over. Too many of them cause a lot of damage. They are very good eating. So if the prices get too high in the grocery store, you may want to hunt them. Cute yes but they also carry rabies. If you see one out through the day, they may have rabies. Raccoons are normally nocturnal. This one was after the cat food.

This content is uncomfortable! I fear for cat's safety. Shoo away coons! Discourage their presence! Keep pet food away from them! Rabies is highly contagious & common in coons. Also the strain of worms (Baylisascaris) that 60-95% of them carry have eggs that are nearly indestructible, stick to everything (including pet's paws) & are contagious to humans. Raccoon urine can contain harmful diseases that can kill or make pets seriously ill. Leptospirosis (also contagious to humans) is one such nasty illness. Discourage raccoons near your home! Dogs & cats lick their paws; every single thing they walk thru is lapped up by their tongue. This is so irresponsible!

I never liked raccoons. Chase them off with shovel. Im a cat person!

I would've beaten the crap of that raccoon for trsdspasin

Why would you let that NASTY Animal eat your cats food??? And then just sit there and allow it to continue? Nasty Animal Racoons!!! Nothing good about that Animal, does nothing to help other than destroy things!

y’all think that shit all funny and u can record all u want till that raccoon decide to kill your pet. think twice and protect your members have a good one
