SEE ALSO:This 'Infinity War' tune was the throwback jam of 2018The post describes how Oreo came to his life at Quinta Layla just a few months shy of a decade ago. His whole litter had just been born, but their mother had no milk. The farm's proprietor was at a theater in London when they got a call asking them to come pick up a raccoon.
"We whizzed back up the motorway and spent hours trying to get you and your siblings to drink from a bottle," the post reads. "We chose you because you were strong and took the formula first little knowing then that you would be such an inspiring animal who would make people from all over the World happy."
In the days since, Quinta Layla has shared a number of other posts reminiscing about Oreo.
