Im personally in the metroplex...the center is out east. BusyBlonde, I wish more people saw it the way you do. It is my responsibility to protect my flock, not to dispatch a predator just trying to survive in an ever shrinking habitat.

No, I have never had one lash out at me. Bobcats are actually extremely gentle if they are raised thoughtfully. I have sustained far worse injuries from domestic cats than I have ever recieved from any bobcat. however, I will say that they are very smart, and are very good at bluffing you. The...

Here in Texas, The Texensis subspecies gets to be around 25lbs, but bobcats look bigger than they should for their weight. Lenny is around 33lbs.

Just a little something to brighten your day....Bridgette, as a baby. She had a big meal, and fell asleep in the chair. Too cute!

like I said in the other thread, a happy big cat is a FULL big cat! ...which is why Lenny and Hoover are a bit on the porky side...but don't tell them I said that! They are sensitive about their weight!

Well, I would strongly suggest you first talk to your local game warden and sheriff's department...as well as your local city laws, AND then your neighborhood laws...you will be answering to ALL of them. If there is no problems there, then you need to decide what kind of big cat you want...as a...

haha they are my kind of kittes too! they are SO unbelieveably smart....*sigh* WHY must I be in love with an apex predator, AND chickens?

Lenny has two room mates in the "bachelor pad". Here is Hoover. he is our oldest bobcat, and just stunning to photograph...when he cooperates! Did you know bobcats can choose wether they want to wear their cheeks puffed or slicked? cool, huh?

well, most of our diet is donated (good thing too! We have around 30 bobcats in our program right now. Most of them are in the release program, a few in the education program, and a few in the sanctuary program). We have to be careful about feeding live...rehabbing predators puts us in a tough...

...and there is a lot of really expensive suplements that we provide in addition.

ha ha not even close...a happy predatory cat is one that isn't hungry! Bobcats eat about two pounds of meat a day...depending on the weather, they can eat more. Ours get as much whole natural diet as we can get either donated or purchased (which, purchased is rarely, because we are non-profit...

Yep, he is super big for a member of the southern sub-species...they get bigger and beefier the further up north you go. He gets HUGE in the winter time. They aren't as interested in food in the hot summer months.

he is a doll...if you are me he is kindof a poo to everyone else...

I inadvertently hyjacked a thread by someone about their adorable kitties playing in a shallow bathtub of water by posting a picture of my "kitty" lounging in a shallow pool. So, I figured I would start a thread about the one and only Lenny the bobcat.
