Thank you for your attention in this matter!
Possums are next
If they lived for more than a few years I’d be amenable to it.
I’ve seen quite a few reports of them living for like 10 years as pets.
Possums make good pets actually. They are already very cuddly and sweet and don’t carry most diseases we humans need to worry about.
Some people say they can live a pretty good lifespan but in reality you should only expect 5-6 years tops.

@Dort_Owl@hexbear.net do you have a nice barn or something to protect yourself from the elements? Or a hole in a tree?
Or a nice hole in the dirt?

Raccoons will sort through your trash so you don’t have to compost, saving you precious seconds of your life.

Domestication isn’t necessarily an objectively symbiotic affair. Pets are already a much more commensal thing tha they were.
I might argue Raccoons may just be parasitising on us by overflooding our dopamine receptors with cuteness. I think animals all over the world are slowly doing it.
And I’m not complaining.
But if we get our dopamine receptors juiced from the deal, surely that makes them symbiotes
domesticating humans so that we allow them access to our magnificent garbage.
Raccoons are really funny and cute lil guys
I don’t need something as smart as a raccoon in my house. Get up at 3 AM for a snack and Rigby is digging around in the fridge, no thank you
It’s his fridge now, get used to it.
They see the sweet ride the dogs and cats are getting and they want in
Uh, hi. Can I come in?
Aw get in here little one, I was just about to take out the trash. Have at it!
