Well, I must have not injured the raccoon nearly as much as I thought, as he is still coming back, and he is still VERY AGILE! I can't get him. Every time I go out to confront him, he scrambles off my porch like a rocket!
I give up. I am going to have to just live with this little rascal. I'll just have to lock up my garbage cans, and avoid feeding my cat during darkness hours. I live in a small city, so shooting him is out of the question, and I can't set out any traps either.

Raccoon wins.
