Rabies Threat

Just about every night before I go to bed I hear thumping next to my bathroom window.  There is a family of raccoons that seems to gather in the nook where the roof meets the wall to the upstairs there.  They are like my own little rabies forcefield against bad intruders.  Makes me happy.  Although, it also makes me feel kind of watched when I'm going to use the restroom.  Beggars can't be choosers, I guess.
