If you are anything like us, then you absolutely cannot resist precious little animals taking a bath. There is just something about tiny, furry animals splashing around in a bathtub that is guaranteed to induce anyone into a state of total cuteness overload!
And the video of these two adorable raccoons splashing away in the bathtub like there’s no tomorrow is no exception. Honestly, watching these feisty little raccoons do their thing, you could almost mistake them for tiny human children in animal outfits, LOL.
These precious little raccoons are absolute darlings! We know that some animals (dogs come to mind here) really do not like bath time, but that is clearly not the case with these two raccoons.
These feisty little creatures are letting all of their joy out on full blast, LOL. We couldn’t imagine them being any happier, hopping and splashing all around this tub in what we can only describe as a state of true ecstasy!

They almost look like a couple of bunny rabbits with their happy little hops around this tub. And they are just oh so curious too, which only makes them that much sweeter.
Not only are these raccoons excited to explore every inch of this tub, but they also want to explore everything that is in it, too.
That includes one of these little rascals removing the suction cup grab bar from the bathroom wall, putting it in their mouth, and hopping across the tub with it while splashing around to their furry little hearts’ content.
Quite comically, this little raccoon actually ended up dropping and forgetting about the suction cup grab bar by the time they got to the other end of the tub, LOL.
The other raccoon did take a momentary interest in it before also forgetting what made them so excited about it and immediately rushing to join the raccoon at the other end of the bathtub.
Honestly, we don’t really know how to make sense out of this, which is a good thing because if these raccoons’ behavior made total sense, it wouldn’t be so adorable and funny!
Raccoons Love Water
Unsurprisingly, raccoons love water and will often use any that they can find to wash their front paws or food before eating.
Since they do not discriminate about what type of water they use, they are often drawn to pools in people’s backyards since they are a convenient and abundant water source.
Homeowners should keep in mind that the CDC has warned that raccoons can spread a lot of germs in swimming pools, especially since they have a penchant for relieving themselves while taking a dip!
Fortunately for whoever brought these rambunctious raccoons into their bathtub, these feisty little forest bandits do not appear to relieve themselves in this video.
Or if they did, that was not shown in this footage. Hopefully, all these raccoons did in this tub was splash around, LOL.
