I thought I saw a puddy tat

I went to the convenience store in our apartment block, at about 9 o'clock at night. On the way back, I saw a cat - I thought it was strange that someone had a cat that was out - the apartments are (AFAIK) for temporary accommodation, and although pets are OK (we've got one, after all), I wouldn't have thought that anyone was here long enough to get one.

Anyway, as I got closer, I noticed it was a really big cat. With a pointy nose, and a long bushy tail. With stripes. It was a raccoon. Which I thought was kind of cute, until I read about them on Wikipedia. Seems they are a bit prone to giving people stuff like rabies.
