Couple Raising a Raccoon as a Pet

I've heard of people having some strange pets over the years, but this one truly takes the cake...

Lexi Quigley, 23, and Blake Olson, 26, say they are raising a baby raccoon as a family pet. The Tampa, Florida couple found the abandoned baby raccoon in their friend's backyard. They estimate he was just two weeks old when they found him. The couple rescued him, bottle-feeding him until he was big enough to eat. According to Olson and Quigley, he's now a part of their family which also includes more traditional family pets: two dogs and two cats.

He's cute and all, but personally I'll just stick with my dogs!
