I think about the cheapest reasonable solution may be a T2i with the 400mm L f/5.6 and 2x Extender.

You definitely want the high density crop camera, and the 2x Extender, mounted on any 400+ decent quality lens, to give you about the most bang for the buck I can think of.

Not sure about scopes, etc...if you have something, it may be worth a try!

I would have been able to get within 50 yds. of the cat but the little gravel road the went out that direction was posted by the Bureau of Reclamation as No Trespassing.... not sure how that works but did not want to chance getting arrested for a cat photo.

I would have chanced it. :)
