Now this is a great thing happening here. I love when The Great Spirits creations are welcome in the world and watched over like one of our own family. I Geronimo Rubio LOVE all of creation and respect it completely. Read below and enjoy the joy I felt when reading this article...
Love for the Earth
A few decades ago I was walking around in the New Hampshire woods, when I saw this beautiful spotted cat. I didn't know it was a Bobcat. I walked over and stoked his back, just like I would any house cat.
Well, if I hadn't had my Tai Chi reflexes, I'm pretty sure he would have taken my face off when he leaped at me. As it was, he sailed just past my head, when I twisted out of the way. When he landed on the ground he looked very surprised that I could move that fast
No. The Bobcat wasn't rabid or anything like that. He was just very insulted that I would take such liberties
The Moral :
Leave Bobcats alone. They are tough enough to beat you up, although they'd rather not bother

Californians Welcome Bobcats
to the Neighborhood

A bobcat and her two kittens have been spotted around an Orange County, California neighborhood for several days. Earlier this week, sheriff's deputies and Orange County Animal Care officers paid the little wild family a visit ... then they left. Ryan Drabek, interim director of OC Animal Care, said there's no reason to move these native animals since they're not sick, injured or aggressive.
In an era where police shoot deer in backyards, and several states are responding to human-bear encounters with expanded hunting seasons, it's pretty remarkable that they've decided to leave the bobcats alone.
Bobcats are predators, although the wild cats rarely cause any trouble with humans. But that doesn't protect them from being a popular target for hunters, especially since their coats so closely resemble the coveted pelts of their endangered cousins, the lynx. Yet, in this particular Orange County neighborhood, there seems to be a peace treaty between the species.
The Orange County Register reported that "residents mostly think they are getting a cool opportunity to see the animals interact. Though some are concerned about small pets and children, and others worry the bobcats will be harassed."
The bobcats seem to have taken up residence in a nearby greenbelt, but Mom spends much of the day perched on tree limbs or fences, in plain view. She appears unfazed by passing traffic, dog walkers or amateur wildlife photographers. But residents shouldn't be fooled into thinking she and her kittens are just large housecats. Drabek has warned people not to put out food or water, or get too close.
Even though the bobcat seems comfortable in the neighborhood, she'll most likely move out as soon as her kittens are a little older. It's critical that people keep their distance, both to avoid any conflicts and to allow her to raise her kittens in peace. As long as the truce holds between the bobcat family and their neighbors, we might actually be able to score a point here for human-wildlife coexistence.

For licensed Georgia rescues there is no charge to pull a cat, but no veterinary services come with the cat. Out of state rescues, please contact us for details. *LAST DAY means the date the cat is scheduled for euthanasia. If we have a cat posted whose last day has passed, that cat should be considered extremely urgent. Please call about those cats immediately as they may be subject to euthanasia at any time. We remove postings on available cats when they leave the building or their adoption has been completed. If you are a rescuer who has spoken for a cat or a person with an adoption application on a cat, do not take offense. We have had rescues and adoptions fall through in the past and we work hard to make sure no cat falls through the cracks.
