C. E. Cole and Mary Hullinger have been friends all their lives. They lived together from 2001 to 2011 in Colorado and had many pets, including dogs, cats, emus, ducks, and chickens. They also had wild deer, geese, and rabbits that would stay in their yard. One day a friend gave Mary a raccoon he had found under his house. Mary and C. E. raised Leonard Raccoon from a tiny baby till he was full grown. Then one day he left them to find his own family along the Colorado River. He will always be welcome back and loved.
