Nice shtos! They look so much like a house cat, you think they would be cute, cuddly and harmless! lol

Skade, I know two people who do own them, in addition to regular cats. They will always remain wild, but can be "tamed" enough for a childless home environment if gotten as infants (and it is legal where they live, although not legal most everywhere else.)

Me? I just want my 5 housecats...no bobs for me!

Great shots, thanks for sharing.

The male Bobcat (1st 2 photos) had been illegally owned as a pet before coming to the Convservation Center. Also, the illegal owner had him declawed.:(

Good grief. Why on earth do some people do that? I am very glad this cat now is in a safe place.
