Hmm… phone… he could see them via video chat or something I guess. Give Lily a smartphone. Just brainstorming here.
Erm, is he order a new lamp for ideas?

Ikr? Whenever I get an idea, an LED lamp appears over my head. Woo is old-fashioned.
@ Trimutius:
He is ordering a pizza. To be delivered to the woods.

I have the feeling that Woo’s “Great New Idea” might Not meet with Lily’s approval.
Throwing a “Surprise Party” for an Overprotective Raccoon Mom in Full Warrior Mode might be just a Bit Risky.
.
Will a clever plan be crafted to thwart what appears to be another absurdly over the top stereotyped female character? Time will tell!
He’s ordering from Acme Co. Plans never go awry when you order from them.
I hope his plan is a good one and succeeds. He’s in a no-win situation through no fault of his own.
If he’s ordering something, I’d have expected to see Richard’s credit card lying on the table.
To paraphrase the classic New Yorker cartoon, “On the Internet/Telephone no one knows you’re a raccoon.”
Prolly because I have the sickest sense of humor, but I can imagine the call goes something like this. “Hello? Local Deforestation Association? Ah, yes! I would like a certain portion of the forest turned into a shopping mall. But, uh, quick thing. There’s a female raccoon there, she just gave birth recently, I would like it if you don’t kill her, or her kits. Rather, I’d like it if you tranquilize her, and deliver her, and her kits to the home of Sandra North. Okay, thank you! Buh-bye!”
Panel 4: “Hello-o-o-o-o-o, bay-ay-ay-bee!”

Well she’s a raccoon and the males typically have no role in raising the children.
Maybe Richard’s credit card is off camera. I really like the idea of pizza as a peace offering . . . or at least a distraction.
Come to think of it as he Can speak human nobody needs to know its him on the other end.
Clever ‘coon. Deliveries will be interesting to explain though…
Mr. Woo has a plan. Thanks, Sandra!
I think he’s calling Butterfly.

What’s he ordering; a telescope?
This reminds me of Boldric from Blackadder and the line:-
” Mr B, I have a cunning plan”
well I have a problem with pro-skub antiskub question…
I think programmers should develop software that can solve mathematical software analyticaly and in continous, rather than discreet domain.
Hes ordering a suit of armour in raccoon size so he can visit in safety !

Really? Don’t you think he might have been just a little involved with the situation? Hmmm?
Hello- is this Michigan J. Frog? Can you do me a solid?
I hope Lily will come back to her senses, I really want to see what the kits look like!
@ TheSkulker:
He’s the father. He’s not denying it. Which shows more responsibility than some humans do.
But Lily’s attitude IS unreasonable. 3+ years?
(OK, her attitude might be reasonable if they were “real” raccoons. Someone wrote that males eat kits. That might be a sound evolutionary strategy for “dumb” animals who don’t recognize their offspring carry their genes. Woo and Lily do know, so Woo doesn’t deserve this abuse.)
Earlier in the comic they said that the average raccoon lives for about 3 years. 3 1/2 years later, Woo will be dead, if Lily meant what she said, Woo will never be able to see his kits.
Am I correct in assuming Woo’s idea involves bribing Lily with food? I remember food being her soft spot.

That will not end well.
At least not for the Pizza Delivery guy.
Lily will appreciate the Pizza but will also be annoyed that the Delivery guy’s Screams woke up the kits.
Staging a fake attack and then coming to Lily’s rescue to get into the home. Classic Woo.
This is such a great comic! The best i’ve ever read! PLEASE NeVeR stop updating.
a phone?? who would Woo be calling that actually knows he talks??
@ Not needed:
“Local deforestation association” have sold it’s equipement a few chapters ago, remember?

Average raccoons don’t die of natural causes. Woo is not an average raccoon, he can expect to see 20.
OTOH, that might be what Lily intended to say.

OTOOH… Lily -is- an average raccoon. I would expect her to automatically think “3-4 years.”

A house dog only lives for 12 years. Woo should die when Sandra graduates from high school.

Actually it depends… big dogs can live 8-10 at most, small dogs even 15… a wolf, if properly fed, can pull of 15 in human controled environment… (mostly because it is not messed up by crosbreeding… but old wolf bones will be in terrible conditions)
He would never pull that off naturaly…
Racoons have average lifespan of 3 years in nature… however as pets 15-20 is acutally possible. They die mostly of environment hazards and by fact they heal quite slowly.
Small cat lifespan in nature is 5 years… domestic cat, can manage 20. (I remember having a cat at my greadparents house… 15 years… the smartest animal I have ever seen… never climbed the fence when mewing was enough to open the door so he could pass through… never crossing the street when cars were around… (perfectly willing to climb where there was noone to open)
never had a name… (well it is pointless to name a pet that won´t come when you call him)

That would Realy End Badly.
Lily is Already Paranoid. A Fake attack would put her into Hyperdrive.
Remember that DePelter she bought?
I wonder what he has planned…
I’m guessing he’s got a cell phone stashed at the den and he’s trying call them to talk with them.
