 Coatimundi get along with other pets such as dogs, cats, ferrets and monkeys (as long as your dog doesn’t eat your coati). They are opportunistic feeders in the wild, so use caution with prey species. I would not trust a coati around anything you would call “cat food,” such as hamsters, guinea pigs, birds, rabbits, etc. Coatimundi housebreak pretty well, although sometimes mine make mistakes. I use a cat litter box with a sheet of newspaper instead of cat litter. Their poop stinks, (Pshew), but they have no body odor or scent glands. Guess that’s why they like perfume so much.

Coatimundi are not the ideal pet for everyone. They are an exotic animal and should be treated with respect. If you hit one, it will come back at you. If you take something away from one you will get bit. Try to trade for something they want more. All your little breakables have to be put away or they will become broken. These little guys don’t do well caged a lot. Letting them out for an hour or two a day just isn’t enough attention time. If it’s going to have much cage time you might consider getting two coati.
