Spooky moment raccoon reaches its hands through the gaps in a wooden deck to steal kittens’ food
- Two kittens had an uninvited dinner guest while eating outside earlier this month
- Cheeky raccoon stuck its hands through decking and pinched their cat food
- Another raccoon then walked straight up to their plate in Dothan, Alabama
A bold raccoon came up with a clever way of finding its next meal by poking its hands through decking and stealing food from some kittens.
A cat owner from Dothan, Alabama, filmed the cheeky pest earlier this month pinching dry cat food straight from the cat’s plate while they ate their dinner.
Two small hands appear through the gaps in some wooden decking as the hungry animal got a smell for the food up for grabs.

The pesky raccoon uses its long fingers and claws to grab the kibble and scoop it under the deck where it is hiding.
As it quickly makes its way through one side of the plate it feels around and stretches out to find more.
The two small kittens seem unfazed by the uninvited guest, pausing to take a look for a while before returning to their dinner.
Soon enough the cats are joined by a raccoon which walks straight up to the plate to tuck it.
