New Pet

Picked up my new pet coatimundi last thursday. Little hard to find these guys. I have been trying to get one since about this time last year. They are basically a south/central american raccoon. FAR more mellow than the north american cousins.

8 weeks old, still on a bottle. And slightly insane if it's play is any indication.

What the... Is that just a free-roaming animal like a cat or does it have a cage?

Cool.

It has a cage, but when I'm home it's "free roaming" as you put it. It's young so when I go outside it will follow me around. But when it gets older it's going to need to be on a leash and harness.

how old does it have to be until you can eat it.

jk looks neat.

Is that a glimpse of you in the 2nd picture? Pretty cool pet. Is it going to cuddle with you while you sleep? Name?

I still think you're crazy for wanting one.

Looks like an overgrown ferret. That's tight though.

1) Nope. Not me. Co-worker.

2) It may cuddle with me when it gets older. They are diurnal so they do sleep at night. It goes to bed when I do and wakes up slightly before me currently.

3) No name yet. I'm still debating.
