I agree. There's only so many hours in a day. This has become quite a time consuming enterprise with everything that is going on in the background (to say nothing of the late hours feeding). Almost time to get a trusted friend (secretary ?) to help co-ordinate everything and maybe even make some of the food runs etc.just to free up a few hours a week for yourself Jim. Relieve a bit of the stress. Just a thought.
@@clossemarin3201 I do not find the babies scary at all. If they learn from an early age that a certain person is a FRIEND, they will never bite that person!
I absolutely agree with other commenters, Jim. Don't let your channel engulf you. If you do, it may cause you not to be able to enjoy it, and will become an overwhelming task to try to appease the masses. And i know i speak for many, as much as we so enjoy watching your videos and you sharing this lovely gift, you've got to put yourself first. I think the daily taping is burning you out. TAKE SOME DAYS OFF, I IMPLORE YOU!
In some ways fame and unexpected success is a curse, especially for someone as responsible and dedicated as Jim. Everyone puts demands on you, and you open yourself to criticism. There is a lot to be said for anonymity.
I put together a party platter for my guys with tiny sandwiches and a bunch of cereal at each end. When l came out mama and one of the babies saw me and ran. I put the plate down and put some kibble in the cat dish and filled up the water bowls. When l looked out half an hour later they were all there munching. So great, and then l come in and get to watch the patrons of Jim's diner. That makes my day.
YOU WOULD NOT HAVE IMAGINED SAY TWO YEARS AGO THAT YOU'D BE WHERE YOU ARE NOW, LOTS OF SUBBIES, A BOOK, POSTER OF YOU AND BUDDY. AMAZING JOURNEY. 👏 💜 CAMILLE 🇦🇺
Remember: Christine said that Crabby probably had post-partum depression- and THAT'S why she's always "shooting her face off", as Jim says! 😂 Three babies put her over the edge, perhaps! 🦝🦝🦝🤪
I sure wish she'd find somewhere else to park her bum other than Jim's Diner - until she can learn to get along with the regulars. I feel bad for Woody and the babies. All of them really. She's that party crasher that everyone wishes would get arrested so she could spend a few nights in jail to adjust that attitude a little.
Aw the little fella down by your lower left is so scared and keeps shyly trying but gets scared back. Hiding by bucket of water and hind leg of bench. 🐹
I know! I felt so much anxiety about that. He did try. But he was too shy to come out far enough like the big ones do. And he was too far back for Jim to see him. I'm sure he must have gotten something to eat. But I didn't see it happen. I'll just tell myself that his mama will bring him back for dry food later. And hopefully next time he'll feel a little braver. 💖🦝🐾
Glad to hear you had a fun jam session, Jim! I'm a drummer too so if you ever find yourself in Flint, Michigan, let's make some noise & feed some raccoons!😁
awwww that poor lil baby crying for his momma, made me tear up. I've been trying to figure out what the little chortle the babies make sounds like, and tonight I finally figured it out! If anyone is a Trekkie, you'll remember the episode called "The Trouble with Tribbles" - that's exactly what they sound like!! Thank you Jim, for another great video, and for all you do for everyone in your life. There is no one else quite like you! 💖💗❤️💙💜💝
@@kathybouziane5269 Yesssss it was LOL! They have the new SciFi channel on cable now, and the old shows from the 60's are there. It's fun watching the old shows!
@@kathybouziane5269 I used to watch Star Trek every day as a youngster, too. And yes, youth disappears before we know what happened. Just one day it's gone. Lol.
@@kathybouziane5269 I watched all of them lol Topo Gigio awwwwww I loved that lil mouse!! awwwww Edeeeeeee LOL I'm a bit younger than you, but I remember the 60's and 70's shows so much, and yes the Brady Bunch, the Partridge Family, Family Affair, The Munsters LOL - all of them! Sigh is right!
All the raccoons are so cute. Worry about the little babies … so cute, but scary when they lose track of their mom. Glad the mom came back to that sweet baby.
PEOPLE: Please don't send stuff, (although much appreciated) to Jim as he has no more space for it. Please also respect his privacy, what little he has. Thanks folks.
It's amazing all the things you do in one day and you still find time to share these videos which I am so grateful for!! Thank you, Mr.Blackwood. 😘🤗🦝🦝🦝🐈🐈⬛💖❤💖
Those babies are just so darn cute abd live their little noises! Poor little one crying for his Momma and amazingly enough she came back fir him. Wish Crabbyvwoumd calm down but at least she's a caring and protective Mother. Poor Woody, always waiting in the wings. Miss Scooter zipping around. Jim, what a nice treat that you got to have a little jam session tonight. 💕🦝🦝🦝🦝🦝🦝🐱🐱💕
Thanks Jim super cute video. Take a time out for yourself,we could take a little less of you rather than you hitting burnout. No One can replace what you bring to the table.🙏💯❣️ “ U S “👨🏻🦳🧑🏻🦳🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦HAPPY CANADA DAY FROM ONTARIO YOUR WELL LOVED!!!!!🫀 OF GOLD!
I’m watching random videos. Couldn’t sleep. Your videos always relax me. I just ordered your book from Amazon. It should be here tomorrow! Yay! Great video tonight. Thank you Sir once again!! 🥰🥰🥰
Thanks Jim for the close-up shots of the babies eating and munching. They are so cute...I never realized racoons made so many different sounds. Some sound so pitiful.
The little raccoon learning to climb is so cute! I love the babies’ little trilling noises. But we can live without them for a few nights so Jim can get some rest.
Poor little Woody stood there waiting to for you in the beginning. Too bad Crabby ran him off. The one little one that hid under the railing behind the bench seemed to be in a blind spot. They are just too precious. Fame does have it's price Jim but the joy you share is priceless. Thanks!
Jim, please take care of yourself first or you won't be able to care for your furry kids as you like. Tell people "No" and they Will understand. No disappointments. NObody expects OR wants for you to keep up this pace. May God bless and keep you all healthy, happy and peaceful. 🙏🙏🙏🦝😸
I'm the adoptive mother of a 34 year old profoundly autistic adult son. Everyone left as soon as they realized how difficult my poor precious son is and I have been alone with him since he was 2. I'm sorry that your grandson has autism too and pray he will find some happiness in his life. He sounds high functioning though which is great!!! My son is non verbal and still in diapers. He is 6 foot 3 inches and 260 pounds. I bet he would have been a pro football player if he had had a different birth mother. She did drugs we found out well after we adopted my son and I loved him fiercely already and still do. I would not return a dog to the pound let alone turn my baby back over to the state!!! People actually told me I should can you even imagine!!! Thats just evil I think...
Sweetest little things in this World OMG. Cuties Standing on their hind legs. Thank you for feeding these adorable critters. You are a Dear Sweet Man Stay Safe and Blessings to you ❤💕🐾😘🐾🐹
It is amazing how Jim never misses a raccoon waiting for a hotdog. No matter what else is going on he is still passing out the hotdogs and the raccoons wait their turn so patiently! He is the best daddy any fur baby can have!
Aww. I love the raccoons and feed my own here in NY but I get so anxious when you scold them. Some are just nastier than others - but it’s natural. I have one that charges at me and gnarls a lot. I try to feed her in the way back (she doesn’t wanna share).
Sensational video, lost baby calling out for momma and reunite. You called it, Jim, you knew she'd be right back. Thank you for sharing. I've never seen baby racoons or heard such adorable sounds from them. And the chewing, is just too cute! Oh my, this Santa Claus pic of you! You have been so involved and just so driven to give!
Love love love your films Jim. Especially the fur babies sweet sounds. Your commentary is always interesting. Stay well stay healthy stay the beautiful person you are. Greetings from England.
There are many comments below, Jim, AND I will mirror them. Please take some time off. Please don't listen to the trolls. Rediscover just enjoying spending time with the raccoons. Please rest and take of yourself.
It's so amazing to see how polite and well behaved they are, aside from being gorgeous. Thank you so much, your videos never fail to make the day much brighter! God bless you.
We have baby raccoons here too that we feed. I love the sounds they make, but they've been getting quieter each visit. Guess Momma is teaching them to be stealth.
“Happy Canada Day!” As a New Subscriber from Cincinnati, Ohio, Love your videos and so jealous of your interactions with those beautiful “Rascally” raccoons, especially Scooter, Sammy, Buddy, Woody and all those little babies around you.

raccoons standing on 2 legs are just too cute
I know, that's the best!!!
I know I just love when they stand on two legs. It’s so adorable. 🦝🐈🥰💜🇨🇦
@@mycatalby630 I wish Jim would hold back a little while feeding Woody...so he'll stand up to beg!! Because that's what makes him so adorable!!
I couldn't agree more. It's like looking at little bandits begging.
When it gets to be too much for you Jim just say no. You don’t need to please all these people and their requests.
I agree. There's only so many hours in a day. This has become quite a time consuming enterprise with everything that is going on in the background (to say nothing of the late hours feeding). Almost time to get a trusted friend (secretary ?) to help co-ordinate everything and maybe even make some of the food runs etc.just to free up a few hours a week for yourself Jim.

Love when they stand on their hind legs 😆😆👍🙌🙌🙌
I do too, so cute
Jim you really should take s few nights off from filming. We will miss the videos but i think your health is more important. I wish you the best Jim.
Agreed take some time for you, you NEED that. We can wait
I truly hope anyone that reads this, will be blessed with good fortune!! 🦝
Thank you
Blessings to you as well
Thank you and wish you the same. To God Be The Glory!
The babies make the cutest trilling noises ... just adorable.
Very impressive , indeed ! 🙂
They do so
@@clossemarin3201 I do not find the babies scary at all. If they learn from an early age that a certain person is a FRIEND, they will never bite that person!
Jim, push some of these interviews off. They will wait. I hate that you can't get any rest. I'm worried.
Yes, Jim, you're a very kind man, but you don't have to do it all.
Amazing to hear their little baby "twirly " voices! They almost sound like birds
@@FuzionHyperX 😂
I thought the same things-"like birds almost". I love that sound.
Jim's having a great night he has 6 babies and Charlotte and Connor and his other furry kids God bless his heart thank you again
Yes , may God bless Jim !

I don’t think the babies are afraid of you Jim. I think they’re afraid of crabby.
So sorry life has gotten so complicated for you Jim. You take such good care of the Raccoons and are especially sweet to the babies. 🦝🦝
Sometimes things build up and take over before you know it and you need to take time out. We want you around for the long haul Jim.
The little noises they make are so sweet. Cuteness overload. Thanks for sharing. Precious. 🍼🐾🦝🦝🐾🍼🥰
Jim should take a night or two off to relax!
Well He still has to feed them a few times a night, but as far as filming, he could. Im sure he could use it.
Or a week, or a month even!

Hello little babies and all the raccoons. Good to see you Jim hope your doing well. Hi yo Connor Cat and Ms Charlotte. Take care.

All the raccoons are so cute. Worry about the little babies … so cute, but scary when they lose track of their mom. Glad the mom came back to that sweet baby.
A superhero for Raccoons and Cats. Jim this is your gift to the world 🌍
I love the noises the babies make!
I never heard a raccoon make a noise, I'm so glad mama came back!!
Those are the noises babies always make.
Your grandson is adorable. I bet he'll be thrilled to see all the airtime he got!
I just love the babies chatter. Thank you for the video Mr. Blackwood.
I bet once Crabby's babies are more independent...Crabby will turn into a sweetheart. She's just a cautious mom.
Six babies !!!! Look at all the babies. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
That's a VERY CUTE MUG! Happy Early Birthday!!! 🥰🎂🎉🎉🎉💞
Babies everywhere!! Look at those faces! And the chirps...so pitiful but still very CUTE!!!!

Always a pleasure to watch your videos. Thank you Jim. You may want to invest in a referee whistle and referee shirt to break up those fights 😉
Bless your heart MR James thank you for your videos and caring for the Animals, Your videos make my heart happy God Bless
Send some of that rain out to California - BIG drought. Again!
Just love watching Jim interact with the raccoons and now with the babies coming over too. Crabby needs an adjustment goosh how she complains.
Oh my they are so cute and i like how there is someone standing up like is mr jim coming out

I love their little faeces. They are so beautifully marked. When you speak they reply. Adorable. From New Jersey.
Wow crabby is bad maybe she has a hormone overload and where are her babies.
Her babies were on the deck, and that's why she was freaking out.
It's so amazing to see how polite and well behaved they are, aside from being gorgeous. Thank you so much, your videos never fail to make the day much brighter! God bless you.
I love hearing the babies calling to their mother. They are adorable and already love you!
We have baby raccoons here too that we feed. I love the sounds they make, but they've been getting quieter each visit. Guess Momma is teaching them to be stealth.
Crabby has a naughty streak for sure! Happy Canada Day tomorrow.
🌴Hi Jim thank you for sharing this video...your grandson is a very handsome little boy...God Bless...🌺
The babies are really cute n sound so sweet when they are calling for their mommy. aww, its amazing how she hears them and come back for them.
Your magnets are great! Your grandson is a handsome young man!
First the lip smacking now the little trilly noises!!! Too cute for words!! 🥰
