    So many nightly visitors.

    I’ve got 4 raccoons that come by. 1 with a messed up tail. One with a big fluffy tail. And a pair that are always together. One of those is super shy the other super bold.

    1 black cat (rare visitor) 1 orange tabby (daily visitor) 2 medium gray tabby cats but one has brownish red tummy (1 is daily visitor, other is rare visitor) The rare one has actually came inside a few times. My cat was friendly with her. 1 light gray tabby with a bell (multiple times a day visitor). 2 gray squirrels sometimes bury things in the front porch flower beds. They come up on the porch sometimes. Never eat anything I leave out (,fruit or vegetables).

    There is a female possum that comes multiple times through the evening. I’m pretty sure it’s the same one but I thought that about the racoons until I paid more attention.

    If it’s multiple possums, they all appear to be females. The hanging pouch is visible from the backside.

    I’ll have to get a camera set up.

    Also I thought originally it was like 2 cats. Maybe they told all their friends. I had to make a limit with myself on how much food I put out cause I’m not rich.

    5 scoops of cheap cat food. Plus any leftovers that are safe for them. (Leftover pasta ).

    Plus my dad says racoons love marshmallows. This appears to be true so I put some out.

    I have water bowls out too. And two food bowls separated so one animal can’t guard one against the other animals.

    Here are a few pictures I’ve taken. I’ll have to get some of everyone.
