About Raccoon Barn Cat

Meet Raccoon, the ultimate outdoor cat ready to tackle any rodent issues you might have. With a personality that favors independence, Raccoon thrives outside rather than as a typical house cat. As part of High Country Humane's Barn Cat Program, he is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped, making him well-equipped for his outdoor adventures. This program is specifically designed for cats that need an outdoor environment to be happy and healthy. If you have a barn, shed, or any secure structure, Raccoon would love to find his forever home there. It's beneficial to adopt cats in pairs, as they tend to adapt better together. When bringing Raccoon home, it's essential to confine him for a few weeks to help him acclimate; this can be done safely in a garage or shed. Remember to keep him fed and protected from predators like bobcats and coyotes. Raccoon is a large, male Domestic Short Hair who is nearly four years old. His brown and black coat is perfect for blending into his environment. If you're looking for a no-fuss companion to help you keep pests at bay, consider giving Raccoon a home. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
