So, I had mom and the babies on our back porch checking them out as the bulb in our garage finally gave out. I needed a place with more/stronger light hence moving them to the enclosed porch briefly. Our door is broken and doesn't close tightly anymore so while sitting there inspecting mom and babies I hear the door pop open expecting it to be the wind like normal.. nope raccoon.
It paused when it saw me then did a quick 180 disappearing into the dark, I could not see which direction it disappeared into and am now freaking out as the garage door was open at the time. I have no clue if it slipped inside while I was hastily popping babies and mom into their respective carriers. I transported them back to their cage placing babies into their nest and mom into the cage with the nest.
Now I am antsy and just know I am going to go out there to check on everyone every 2hrs. There isn't a whole lot of places for a raccoon to hid in our garage but I have this paranoid feeling it could have slipped into the walls for some reason. Probably stemming from the fact some of the dry wall is not secure to the garage frame on the inside.
