Bobcat as a pet?

[GhostSkull]

Anyone ever had a bobcat as a pet? I've come across a couple kittens! These are city bobcats not that it would matter. Lol!

We had a boy mix and when he hit maturity he went wild on us. A fixed girl would be ok I think. It will want to sleep high - ie - on your mounts etc. A friend had one he finally moved to a big cage.....

Cantexduck has one! Hopefully Mike will chime in on this.

my uncles brother in law had one. He could pet it etc. but no one else could. It was on a tie out between two tree or cloths line or something and a dog got to close and it nearly skinned it alive is story I was told....

I had a pet coon and it could be mean as heck when wanted so I cant imagine a bobcat

I wouldn't recommend it if you have little kids. It'd be kinda cool though...talk about a heckuva barn cat!

I've raised several....and have the scars to prove it. I've personally never seen a tame one, heard of em, but never seen one.

Better get some welding gloves if you're gonna try to grab that li'l guy! And a video camera!

I would think you could transplant those back to a natural preserve or something and not take the risk.....i sure wouldn't want to 'tie' any animal dog, cate, horse especially something that is a wild animal

My MIL had one for about 10 years. It was a really neat pet. She also had a pet coyote.

Bobcats do REALLY well in town.

Can be done. Declawed and neutered. But they're still a cat.

I dated a girl in high school who had one. Name was"bites" for good reason.lol

Yupp...there is a girl in Tilden that runs around with it sleeping on her dashboard of her truck...Seen it several times cool cat appeared to be a big male didnt ask...I think it depends on how young you get them and how much time you spend with them to tame them right...
