He always wears a mask. Compulsively washes hands, and the letters of raccoon rearrange to spell corona (if you leave out one c).

One night I heard something coming up on my front porch and it sounded like a heavy person, this was around 3 am. Well it was a huge Raccoon probably about 50 lbs or more with another smaller one. They are prolific in the city and are dangerous to cats. I would always leave a bowl of cat food out for strays and they were looking for that. They are beautiful and very clean, wash everything they eat.
