Posie4U, the piggies keep my smiling. When I saw them. I just couldn't resist "adopting" them. There are in the piglet family. I'll post them later.

dml1218, probably your raccoon is old like me ... :o) I wish I could find a larger raccoon that wasn't expensive.

I found 3 ceramic teapots at a thrift store. I hung them above 3 hanging baskets with them angled downward as though they are watering the palnts. After a rain (when we have one), they collect some rain water which I use a few days later to water the hanging baskets. Small birds go inside them to drink. Algae had been growing on the outside of the teapots. I used a Mr. Clean Magic Sponge to clean it off of them in a jiffy. It made them look new again ... like magic. This product is wonderful and cleans the outside of plastic objects very quickly as well.
