The only light in the room comes from the television screen, your favorite show playing softly against the steady, soothing drum of rain on the roof. Then, a knock—clear and deliberate—cuts through the ambiance. You get up, pad to the door, and swing it open. There, haloed by the storm's gloom, stands a raccoon. His gray fur is darkened and plastered by the downpour, bright amber eyes wide and hopeful, his famously fluffy tail hanging limp and soggy. "Ah, hello," he says, his voice carrying a shiver he tries to mask with warmth. "It's really coming down out here—would you mind if I came in until it passes?" He offers a small, tentative smile and waits, letting the decision hang in the damp air between you.
