I took this photo a few years ago when my dog caught this little guy up a tree. I didn't do any photo manipulation, his eyes are just glowing cause of the flash

In my townhouse complex there was a coon who's backlegs were atrophied so he had to walk funny because he could not bend them. he also walked slow. One time saw him walking past a building, went to my apartment and got a bowl of water. He saw me and stopped, I showed him the bowl and set it down away from me and him but within his sight, then moved back even further. he went and drank some water then walked on past me a few feet away. I then picked up the water and brought it to my backdoor. Shortly after I brought him some things to eat, I put them on a plate and backed off but not as far, he went up to the plate and began eating. He then lay on the plate. I brought more but couldn't put it on the plate but he did let me put them in the grass very close to him. he ate then walked off. later on saw him and he came right up to me and sniffed my shoe a bit. then walked off. later on i managed to be allowed to pet him and got some photos of it. it is silly though how two people were afraid of the coon even though it was clear that he just was out walking looking for food and water and not diseased or anything.
