Well if finally happened. I forgot to put down the doggie door when we left last week. Got back yesterday to find something got in and helped itself to the can of dog food. Fortunately it had the good manners to finish dinner and leave without further disruption. We have lots of critters come through our yard at the bottom of then hill but this is the first evidence of something coming around the cabin.
So, can we tell what it was by the punctures? One set is 1/2" apart, the other 3/4.

Worst case Ontario, I'd say you had a rakin break-in, but since they left it's water under the fridge.

Thanks jhp, seems to be the consensus around here too.

LOL
I forgot a couple of gallons of drinking water (kind in the store-bought milk jugs) outside overnight last fall, woke up to them both ripped open with similar teeth marks.
The trail camera agreed it was those crafty rakins.

I give up. What is a rakin?
I googled it and got this
“A gay brown person, who like white guys, and has bad taste in girls.â€
Somehow I don’t think that is what you are referring too

You'll need to get on Netflix and get caught up on your Trailer Park Boys.
Rakin is a "Rickyism" for racoon.

Lucky it wasn't a bear. They seem to always pick a different way out then the way they came in.

Ha, no bears around here. I'm a raised in the suburbs pussy, if I saw a bear I'd shit my pants.
My dog has been pretty curious looking under the cabin, might be the racoon hanging around looking for another payday. I'm going to put the Spypoint under there.

Clearly I’m out of touch
Paul I had a small bear that even you wouldn’t have been afraid of walk out to the front of my cabin
I chased him away but first he just climbed a tree so I had to back away until he came down then I finished chasing him back into the bush
Just last year’s cub kicked out by mom looking for his own territory. Hopefully I convinced him it’s not right here
