Do Raccoons Eat Cat Food. By nature cats are secretive animals, they do not pay too much attention to raccoons. Raccoons do not scare easily, and are quite happy to protect “their” food from creatures as large as a bear.
I would say about 4 times the size of my largest male cat. The raccoons and cats eat right out of the same dish. Is it ok to be feeding the raccoons this way?
Always have your animals come inside to eat their meals.
Raccoons who live around people supplement their diets by visiting nearby homes on a regular basis, looking for their share of any dog and cat food that has been left out. Raccoons will eat your cat if they do have other food resources around them, but there are cases where they will only get into quarrels with them over fight or territory. Also, raccoons like cat food, and if they get used to eating from a cat’s bowl, the fight is inevitable. Like a lot of wild animals, they are opportunists.
