It’s solid black, I’ve seen it twice now. It’s supposed to dip to 0°F or lower this weekend so tomorrow I’ll be setting up a shelter with a heat lamp. If it decides to stick around I may try trapping it to get shots and a vet visit in the spring. I have 6 cats at present so I really don’t need another but if it stays outside I don’t see a problem, I like cats.
I don’t really have raccoons around here but if something else calls the shelter home, so be it I guess.
