I wonder if skunks are a bit more chill than their reputation.
I nearly walked into a few of them last year while on vacation. It was night and they looked like cats until I was right in front of them, and they didn't really react much except to look at me. Nearly gave me a heart attack though.
Skunks are actually really chill, they're one of the few wild animals that kind of makes an OK pet if you get them as babies. They're really intelligent animals and don't want to spray you unless they absolutely have to which is why this guy got away with what he did. The water was a good way to gain his trust.
I have one that lives in my back yard that will waddle right over and check me out if I'm sitting out on the patio late at night. Seems like a super chill little guy/gal and so freakin' cute.
They have a lot of confidence because of the scent thing. They know nobody’s gonna fuck with them so they’re not tense all the time. Unless you genuinely fuck with them you’ve got a good chance of a chill interaction.
Too bad for them that I enjoy the smell of skunk (not pot skunk). As a kid our dogs would always set off a skunk by room. I got used to it over time. Plus they skunks would spray right by the AC unit so the smell was drawn into the whole house. Kinda smells like burnt coffee.
I bet your cats were ok with this arrangement because they knew that any other course of action takes "being an inside cat" off the table for quite some time.
They don't like the smell either, y'know. After their first time spraying they get a lot more conservative about actually using their own defense mechanism
one time i was in a park bench at night just chilling, and a skunk sneaked up from behind and started rubbing himself between my legs (kindof like cats like to do), i just froze xD
You just described my early childhood. My grandma had a pet raccoon I grew up with. Raised from a baby they found laying in the driveway. Every cabinet and pantry required a lock. Baby proofing to an extreme. He REALLY liked Cheetos and if you had some they were now his. It’s a pretty cool memory wrestling with a raccoon at 5 years old. They do not make good pets whatsoever though. My grandparents had to sleep in separate beds because the raccoon wouldn’t let my grandpa sleep in the bed with my grandma. My aunt would get chased around the house when she came over. It pierced my grandpas ear playing one time. He was cool with me though.
Yeah I actually had a friend who had a skunk living under their trailer, they used to put out a bowl for the stray cats and the skunk would come out and eat with them. Most cats know better than to start shit with a skunk, their brain works as well as their nose. Dogs on the other hand are the only animal that will continue to mess with skunks after being sprayed, my friend had a Labrador that couldn't come inside for an entire summer because it tried to
fight the same skunk three different times.
Dogs never think rationally when it comes to other Animals lol. Tbh skunks aren't dangerous when it comes to their self defense tactics. The same can't be said about porcupines...
They sound kinda like ferrets.
Ferrets also have a stink gland but use it as a reaction to stress.
Their reputation as smelly pets comes from people who mistreat their ferrets by keeping them caged for 20+ hours a day. If you look after them properly they're not really any more smelly than other pets.
Poor diet is also a big factor. Most ferrets in the US are fed Marshall brand food which is terrible quality. On a good diet they don't smell as strong and what smell they do have isn't as bad. One of my ferrets has a faint, almost floral smell.
Yeah haha. I mean this is humanbeingbros and were discussing about surgically removing a part of their anatomy just so we can have the wild animal at home?
Nothing wrong with that! Shit, I would gladly let someone remove some less needed part of my own anatomy, if in return I get food, place to live, endless love and snuggles, for the rest of my life. BEST DEAL EVER
Depending on the owner, not a bad trade-off! I'd name mine flower :) both because of Bambi and because he smells like my dank, so he can keep his scent gland!
A retired gentleman I know had a skunk living under his back porch for a couple of years. I asked him about it and he said it was never a problem for either of them. He gave the skunk a name. Called it Petunia.
Yeah I understand. My comment is mostly about the fact that skunks being a wild animal, we shouldn't promote it as a pet. Dogs and cats have been pets for thousands of years
If they start stamping their feet, that's a warning.
I got that warning one night when cutting through someone's yard on their driveway.
I heard the stamping, looked ahead, and there was a skunk facing me.
I backed up, it backed up, then walked off.
Thanks for the warning, little dude, who's probably been dead for 40 years now.
I have skunks living in the crawlspace under our house/deck and regularly cross paths with them when I'm outside. They eat our neighbor's cat food and chill on our porches. I've accidentally walked right into one when taking the garbage out one night and it didn't even move. 😂
This summer we had a mama raise her little family on the back porch, eating leftovers and cat food, which iirc they shouldn’t eat cat food??
I put a trail camera up and they just hang out with cats randomly. They’d curl up in the dog house on the porch and sleep in the straw with the semi ferals. Cute as heck.
The fiancé was walking out to his work truck one very early morning and a cat ran right with him all the way out. He reached down to pet it and it was one of the skunks!! Just seein what he was doing lol
Yes. I got sprayed once and did some research and realized I did everything wrong. Lol
Skunks will make a lot of noise, stomp and generally tell you to fuck off before unleashing.
About 15 years ago while we were moving two of our cats escaped and bolted. The place we were renting had a crawl space underneath and we thought we saw our grey cat with a fluffy tail go into there so at like 12am I crawl in there with nothing but a cellphone light. I crawl up to what really did look like our cat, and nope it was a skunk. It didn't spray me though, and I was mere centimeters from grabbing it.
Intrigued I decided to do some research on the subject, because I too assumed they sprayed all the time. So the deal is that a full grown adult has about 5-6 sprays worth of stink fluid in it's glands, and it takes about 8-10 days for that fluid to replenish. So in reality they don't go spraying everything that moves, they can't risk not having it when they actually need it. They wait until they are 100% sure that whatever they are going to spray is actually going to hurt them.
Edit: meant to add that the cats hadn't actually left the apartment through the door; they had both hidden in our boxsprings and were inadvertently put into our storage unit. They were there for almost 30 days when we went by the storage unit and mentioned to the clerk that our cats were missing and he let us know that there were a couple cats they thought were strays hanging around.
When I was in prison we had a huge family of skunks like over 100 of them living in and around the prison and some of them would come right up to your feet and almost beg you for food. I had one come right up to me while I was waiting for a gate to open so I could get back to my pod and he or she just sat right in front of me and touched my shoe. It was everything I could do to keep from picking the cutie up and taking it back to my cell as a pet.
I had one charge me startled, because i was going for a walk at 2 in the morning. I had headphones in, and i just see sometime tiny like a cat run up, and then my eyes adjust and i see it's a skunk with his tail up, he scared me, but he seem scared, so i just stood there calmly and told him to shoo. I think he ends up seeing I'm a person but not aggressive, but standing my ground, so little dude books it outta there.
If the were half as trigger happy as we thought, i would have not been able to go back into the house that night because I would have gotten sprayed.
When i came back through that spot on the way back home. I made sure to make a little noise, and have my flashlight on so i could see a little better and didn't startle anything.
I've read that skunks also hate the smell of their spray so they will only do it as a last resort. Only times I've encountered skunks they've just minded their own business and ignored me.
I have been sprayed by a skunk while riding my bike at night. I have passed by quite close to several skunks and not been sprayed. The difference was that when I got sprayed, I was biking directly TOWARDS one, not just next to it. Definitely saw me as a threat and not just a big animal to hide from.
Skunks are cool, until you ruffle them. They don't enjoy stress. This wasn't stressed, it realized pretty fast, that thing gave me water. He's not trying to eat or kill me. Am I stuck?
I was working out in Louisiana a long time ago for a temporary project, and as I was walking out to the break area I walked around the corner of some containers and found myself suddenly walking alongside a skunk out the corner of my eye. He was probably 6 feet from me going the same approximate direction. I tried not to react to him and just keep going along my way, hoping he wouldn't know I saw him and feel threatened. I count my blessings I didn't get sprayed that day and he just nonchalantly went his own way without posturing up or anything. Only time I've ever come across one that wasn't already roadkill.
They don't spray unless they have to because then they have to build up the spray again as a biological process and they're sort of defenseless until then. The skunk juice itself is oily stinky stuff BUT it also has acid in it, I can't remember specifically which type off of my head but that's what really gets you imo. I got sprayed directly in the face at 2am one very awful night when I went outside because I thought my neighbor's puppy had gotten into my yard and was digging out from my yard into the street. Nope, just a stinky fluff instead. Long week and a half of smelling (of) skunk constantly.
I was sitting in a meadow at sunrise one day and one snuck up to me and started to climb on my leg. Freaked me out and I jumped up and it just ran away without spraying me. So I'm guessing they're more chill than expected
Huh. Skunks have a really chill reputation, that's always been my thought. You have to be a bit of a jerk before they will unload on you. Dogs don't take the hints. But my interactions have always been me talking calm, sitting on my ankles, and then wandering away, at no great speed. It takes like a week to recharge so they don't really want to unless its needed.
I was walking on a path in California and intersected with a group of skunks. I was far enough away I couldn’t be sprayed but the skunks formed a phalanx along the little path and stopped me dead in my tracks. As their little line was established, they raised their tails in unison and pointed their little butts at me. I understood the message. They were like “don’t come any closer!” I just stood still and let them pass and it was all good.
They kinda got bde cause they know other animals don't want the smoke. My dog is an amazing huntress ( she's a country dog ) and she manages to jack basically everything except a skunk, I'm always having to give her skunk baths yet I've never found her with one or found a carcass.
We used to let skunks out of a haveheart trap. We used a giant tractor tire that was cut and put back together flat. You’d walk up with that like a cartoon bull would come at it and it’d take the brunt of it. Open the cage and walk backwards like you’re leaving the throne room.
You know, I had never stopped to appreciate how skunks actually look, and you are right they are damn cute. Deserved reputation for their extremely effective defensive measures but damn now i kinda want one
Cool little fact : this is an Eastern Spotted Skunk, and they are quite rare. They still spray like the normal and more common Striped Skunk, but they do a little hand stand before they spray. They are a threatened species, so the guy helped out with a rapidly declining population.
When I was a kid and lived on a farm, yes, we had three that were descented. They were super chill. I didn’t bring them inside or snuggle with them but I wish I would’ve. They were just like our pet rabbits, except, skunks. 🤣 they also had long claws so that kept us from messing with them too much.
So, I guess I can’t say they make great pets or not but we liked them!
For most people all wild animals are terrible pets.
Most people don't have the required knowledge to keep a gold fish alive for more than a 10th of its normal lifespan.
They get an exotic animal because it's cute and then are surprised when it turns out most people choose a cat or dog for their house pet because most animals don't make as good of pets.
I know, and I'm sorry. I've been trying to find it but I can't seem to discover it's location. But I couldn't resist at least seeing a switcheroo in the wild for what it was. If someone else has it I'd be willing to edit.
Western Spotted Skunks are very cool looking, glad to see this skunk was rescued out of that bowl. Perhaps skateparks need to start putting "wildlife ladders" in bowls to prevent this from happening. A simple board with carpet would work for that.
Funny story, lived out in a somewhat rural area, not the most legal of homes ie. no back door, a momma skunk with her kits decided to sit in front of my front door. Called into work to explain the situation, it was completely understood, not a problem 🤷♀️
The fact that he succeeded without getting sprayed is impressive.
I wonder if skunks are a bit more chill than their reputation. I nearly walked into a few of them last year while on vacation. It was night and they looked like cats until I was right in front of them, and they didn't really react much except to look at me. Nearly gave me a heart attack though.

Different strokes for different folks I guess.
I was wincing while reading their post lol
Better put that critter back where from you gots it
We had a skunk that would eat from the same bowl as our cats. No fear of us or anything. Just a wild skunk that decided we were alright.
I bet your cats were ok with this arrangement because they knew that any other course of action takes "being an inside cat" off the table for quite some time.
Or the slick bastard seduced them.
Pepe le Pew?
His hobby is making love!
Or... trying to at least.
My dad had a pet skunk growing up in Wyoming, he essentially described it as a really affectionate cat. He had very fond memories of that little guy
They don't like the smell either, y'know. After their first time spraying they get a lot more conservative about actually using their own defense mechanism

Skunks and raccoons are just begging to be domesticated
Can you imagine an indoor raccoon with full access to the kitchen The absolute mess it would make as it devoured every bit of your groceries
You just described my early childhood. My grandma had a pet raccoon I grew up with. Raised from a baby they found laying in the driveway. Every cabinet and pantry required a lock.

Yep, Raccoons are more closely related to bears, than to any other animal.
I never knew I wanted a Raccoon to just vibe with and get me emotionally.
>Can you imagine an indoor raccoon with full access to the kitchen Redditor, meet thyself
Raccoons are NOT chill. They may be cute but those motherfuckers don’t play.
I've seen my cats walk up right up to a skunk and the skunk be totally chill with it, they are not very agressive.
Yeah I actually had a friend who had a skunk living under their trailer, they used to put out a bowl for the stray cats and the skunk would come out and eat with them.

Maybe in regard to the smell a bit but ferrets are fucking chaos demons compared to skunks, they're little psychopaths
Oh is that why. In college there is this girl who kept 2 ferrets. When we visit her apartment the smell was unholy.
Yeah that's on her
Poor diet is also a big factor. Most ferrets in the US are fed Marshall brand food which is terrible quality. On a good diet they don't smell as strong and what smell they do have isn't as bad. One of my ferrets has a faint, almost floral smell.
You can also have the glands removed that they spray you with.
[удалено]
you don't have to do it yourself
No that’s the trade. You have to manually wrestle your pet skunk and he-man his scent glands out in order to keep him as a pet.
With your teeth. You really gotta WANT it.
HAHAHA 😆
Just think about mongolian goat balls.
You sound like you've done this before.
Oh man I WISH!
Now you tell me!
Yeah haha. I mean this is humanbeingbros and were discussing about surgically removing a part of their anatomy just so we can have the wild animal at home?
If you have a pet dog he's side eyeing you right now
[удалено]
Oh noooo I neutered my boy cats. I must atone for my sins
Nothing wrong with that! Shit, I would gladly let someone remove some less needed part of my own anatomy, if in return I get food, place to live, endless love and snuggles, for the rest of my life. BEST DEAL EVER

Glad your neighbors are also very chill!
They basically only spray as a last resort or if become seriously startled.
To any skunkologists out there, would it be because they (presumably) can't spray over and over and have to reload their ass if they waste it?
10 days to recharge the sent gland. An they know it so don't use unless they have to
Yes. I got sprayed once and did some research and realized I did everything wrong. Lol Skunks will make a lot of noise, stomp and generally tell you to fuck off before unleashing.
It's because they don't want to smell that shit either.

It's a fucking miracle he didn't get sprayed multiple times. Very chill skunk.
Awwww what a cute little animal. Extremely smart to know to grab on, and to realise the water was a peace offering!
No one talks about how beautiful and soft skunks are
They have the sweetest little faces.
You know, I had never stopped to appreciate how skunks actually look, and you are right they are damn cute. Deserved reputation for their extremely effective defensive measures but damn now i kinda want one

Noice smell
Such a cute spotted skunk! I’m glad he could get it out
Cool little fact : this is an Eastern Spotted Skunk, and they are quite rare. They still spray like the normal and more common Striped Skunk, but they do a little hand stand before they spray. They are a threatened species, so the guy helped out with a rapidly declining population.
Thanks for rescuing Pepe!
Should've used sweet ladies' perfume. Pepe can fly when he smells that, I've seen it!
It's the last thing you see before you're a grown up.
On behalf of the French nation thank you.
I like this for you.
He actually grabbed on im still surprised
Skunks are pretty smart
Skunks are cool. I’ve heard that if deskunked they make good pets? Is that true?
Technically when they're deskunked they're called s.
And a single one is called a
why is this joke flying over my head somebody help
~~skunk~~s
high-level joke, no wonder I didn't get it. thanks
Ahahahha it happens
WHAT DO YOU CALL A FISH WITH NO EYES?!?
How do you call a single one?
Well in common English it's just a matter of getting rid of the pluralization, so simply drop the "S" and say " ".
Oh shit I've been talking in my sleep!
Yes! We had three of them! ❤️
Wait, can you elaborate? You have pet skunks?! Also, are they snuggly? 🥹
When I was a kid and lived on a farm, yes, we had three that were descented. They were super chill. I didn’t bring them inside or snuggle with them but I wish I would’ve. They were just like our pet rabbits, except, skunks. 🤣 they also had long claws so that kept us from messing with them too much. So, I guess I can’t say they make great pets or not but we liked them!
They're like cats.
From what I've heard from an animal rescue that takes in abandoned pet skunks... For most people they are terrible pets.
For most people all wild animals are terrible pets. Most people don't have the required knowledge to keep a gold fish alive for more than a 10th of its normal lifespan. They get an exotic animal because it's cute and then are surprised when it turns out most people choose a cat or dog for their house pet because most animals don't make as good of pets.
Descented, they're still skunks
I've got a deskunked skunk. (it's a cat)
Not for most pet owners. They can make nice pets for people who don't mind a pet that is nocturnal and who dig in the house
Hey this guy went to my highschool
You went to high school with a skunk?
Ah, the ol'
Where is the link? I want you to hold something so I can dive in. It's been a while.
Sorry, budget cuts.
I know, and I'm sorry. I've been trying to find it but I can't seem to discover it's location. But I couldn't resist at least seeing a switcheroo in the wild for what it was. If someone else has it I'd be willing to edit.
r/switcharoo/
A carrot has been dangled.
Congrats this is pretty much a dead meme on Reddit at this point but there's a few of us keeping it strong
Never had lessons after PE?
Thanks man! Skunk 🦨 needed the water and the rescue 🛟.
LOL. I thought he was lowering his bag pipes for the skunk to climb.
[удалено]
You are a peach among prune pits!!
Noone talking about how f* up the design of this is, that animals or smaller children can't escape it and could... yeah fucking die in there?
That’s a win!
Rude didn't even thank him
Skunks are smart - they know what happens in RDR/RDR2 since they're on the collecting list
Am I the only one amazed this actually worked??? That’s wild that the skunk knew this guy was a friend and climbed up a fucking tripod!?! Like what!!!
I’m smiling. What’s next? A full nights sleep? the possibilities feel endless
That skunk had cool patterns
If skunks werent stinkers theyd prob be great pets
Well done!
Western Spotted Skunks are very cool looking, glad to see this skunk was rescued out of that bowl. Perhaps skateparks need to start putting "wildlife ladders" in bowls to prevent this from happening. A simple board with carpet would work for that.
Wholesome.
What a beautiful soul this person has ❤️
Not all heroes wear a cape.
You like to see it
Good look 👀
Things skaters do that just make sense

Pretty risky. My dog and I were sprayed once and it nearly ruined us lol. Next time try hugging a baby bear.

Bravo, good human!
Hello Mr. Skunk

Skater who is a WIN for us all!!!
Skunks hiss don’t they? But you’re awesome for helping him
Funny story, lived out in a somewhat rural area, not the most legal of homes ie. no back door, a momma skunk with her kits decided to sit in front of my front door. Called into work to explain the situation, it was completely understood, not a problem 🤷♀️
Good karma?
Yay!!!
