He NEEDS to go to a rehab center. Baby coons have very delicate digestive systems. Without a license from the Fish and Wildlife it is illegal to rehab wild animals without a permit, unless working under another licensed rehabber through the Fish and Game.

Racoons do not make great pets so I am hoping he will find someone experienced to help him care for the coon and set him free when he gets older. He needs as little human interaction as possible. There is also a very high chance this baby is infected with distemper, rabies and worse yet, roundworms. All coons should be dewormed as soon as possible if being in a domestic situation. Roundworms from coons are highly contagious and can be transferred to both cats, dogs and humans so it's vital he keeps a very strigent cleaning regimen after caring for this little one. Coon roundworms are about the most fatal roundworms you can get and claim hundreds of dogs and cats lives a year.

If it is not illegal to keep coons in his area and he is planning to keep it, it must be neutered at a very early age in order to avoid sexual agression. I have raised many coons, and have had two domestic coons in my company (both female who got along wonderfully) but have seen too many turn agressive come mating season, and it's not pretty. But I am hoping he does what is best for the coon and set it free, where it belongs.
