My Uncle Otis used to catch raccoons ( ages ago),
following the same routine of taking them home, putting in cages outside.
Told me and cousin Stuey not to play with the raccoons.
As soon as he got into his old blue pick-up and headed into town, we got em out of the cage, into the house and had so much fun watching them clean: apple cores, cigarette butts, change----actually anything got cleaned by the raccoon. We thought it was funny watching the adolescents antics.
All the raccoons escaped back to the wild and my Uncle probably recaught the same ones on each succeeding hunt.
I really don't advise handling a raccoon, by the way, because you can get rabies.
