I'm sure you nobody has to tell you about bobcats (or lynxes for that matter) since you live with one ... (lol) ... I wouldn't trust living with one though (I read that these things can kill a pitbull) ...
Putting this beautiful creature back in the wild wouldn't do anybody any good. It would probably starve to death or get shot because it was trying to eat somebody's pet.
They may have a better life in some respects. However, they loose their ability to survive in the wild. Their instincts are to hunt rabbits and other small game and they are being deprived the freedom to do that.
Well, as long as they don't get lost from your home, they will always have food&water&shelter. So it doesn't hurt them if they don't need to hunt to survive. I'm not saying lets bring all them out of nature, but the ones who don't have to live in nature and aren't abused by their owners are extremely better off.
@DSmith99000 So are you... I think you need to go out there and throw spears at buffalo ... maybe wear some animal skin as camouflage... wouldn't that be a better life? Why do you hide behind civilization?
@PokerVertigo Maybe your right! Maybe it would be a better life. Perhaps even a more honest one. To tell you the truth I have actually considered what you have suggested. In fact I am still considering it.
Exactly! Humans do all the work, and the animals get to lazy about, get provided food they didn't work that hard to earn, be protected and sheltered from the wilds
@VulcanXL exactly, this "better free" also means "easier to kill".
it is a target for hunters, wolves, wolverines, moose, many things that kill these things for fun. A bob car will not defeat a bear and definitely not a rifle.
at the end of the day its just a cat, albeit a big one.
@VulcanXL I agree 100%. This cat has it made in the shade! He's safe, well fed, and loved. I am sure he is happy, and doesn't yearn for the "wild". You're right. They usually have it much better in a home situation than in the wild. >^.^<
No, they don't what?.... Do You honestly think a wild life animal who struggles everyday to find food, shelter and keep them self safe from other predators has a better and more loving life than one that is domesticated and is given attention as if they were the family's baby? ROFL
@VulcanXL i agree on that, and btw i had a lynx sitting in the grass only 4 mtrs away from me outside my house while i was smokin; turned towards it and stepped forward and it ran off ( befor u ask: i live in norway, close to the forest )
You guys are like retarded? It's like you havn't heard a dog growl, or a cat attack you kinda? Dogs, and bob cats arn't that similar, but can still do damage to you. For instince, a dog can easily attack and kill you if no one were around to help.(not saying they would.). A bob cat can kill you too. The only reason they would have to attack you is, you're hurting them, or another bad reason. But, he was playing with his bob cat, and my dog growls at me when I touch his paws too, he's playing.
It may look violent, but its whiskers and ears say "Play with me, I love you!" That and the whole baiting with the stomach thing. Most domestic cats learn not to bite / harm their humans (not sure if 'owner' applies in this case) because it doesn't benefit you, and results in play stopping. I assume that Bobcats are bright enough to worm that out too, if they survive in the wild, and would follow the same logic.
@FaernFlameshine Exactly. In temperament bobcats are not so different from a typical house cat. They certainly require a great deal of respect and responsibility, but these people who seem to think they are vicious, wild killing machines have no clue how a bobcat behaves.
Hmmm... not exactly the monster AR activists make these cats out to be... would love to see a little disclaimer on the video regarding following regs and doing homework before purchase... otherwise... very cute video of your very sweet pet:)
Private breeders and zoo auctions are the most common source of exotic cats for pets. And he looks happy. The swatting is playful. You can see the same sort of behaviour in domestic cats.
If you want a big cat like this, I would recommend going with a lynx rather than a bobcat. Lynxes are generally a bit larger and bobcats tend to have a more aggressive disposition. However in many states it is illegal to own wild cats, you would need to check your local laws and regulations before ever considering ownership.
Really? I was wanting to get a bobcat specifically because they're smaller and, I figured, less dangerous than a (Canadian) lynx. Are they that much more aggressive?
Actually I should revise that; canadian lynxes are still terribly dangerous, and its not to say that a bobcat would win in a fight, but rather bobcats tend to have a more aggressive disposition. If you pissed off a lynx enough I can assure you he will be dangerous, but they are generally less tempermental than bobcats.
Start with a Bengal cat, you might not want any more after that, big cats are cool, not neccessarilly fun! My guy, Calvin, a Snow Leopord Bengal is more destructive than I ever could have imagined.
Wow! Thanks for the tip Waults! If you don't mind telling me, how destructive is he (Calvin) really? What has he done, and are you gonna keep him in spite of this?
Oh just a couple holes in the sheetrock & the sides of the furniture, Calvin really just acts like any other cat, but at 22 lbs, when he decides to scratch something, he means business. I had to wiegh down my trash can with a block of steel to keep it upright. And keep your shoes in the closet, or they get carried off and the laces get chewed. He's really big on stealing stuff and hiding it. Still a nice cat though, has to be part of whatever you do, more like a puppy than a cat.
@greytimberwolfpup I could see that being an issue, I've never even thought about having a racoon as a pet. That would be pretty cool though, have you had one?
That's why you keep your little loved ones indoors. People who let their cats go outside are cruel. Every time I see a cat or a dog become roadkill I am even more glad that my babies never have to worry about that... or disease.
Actually, I don't keep chains on my cats. I don't think most people do. They live very comfortable lives without the risk of dangers. My cats seem pretty content with life. When I take them outside, they just want to go back indoors.
Big Kitties are much like the small ones feral, and all the small cat issues become big ones. If you get it small, fixed, well accumulated, with a big littler box, and no furniture and love cats then big kitty is not a problem. You must understand the temperament of wild and wild means don't frack with me dude because i can frack back.
lynxes and bobcats are wild cats and they re not bred for domestican. they re best in the wild. all it does take an iota of a chance and they will lunge right at u and gonna be one hell of a price to pay!
I have immense respect for people who adopt exotic animals like this while their eyes are still closed, then dedicate a ton of time learning everything they can to give it the best life possible, as well as a lot of love and respect.
I have the opposite feelings to people who get wild animals like these on a casual basis "cause it's cool."
You have no right to run your mouth off and judge others from your high horse from where you have ZERO experience.
ugh how about it being illegal in most places to own one of these and the hundreds of mom bobcats that are killed each year so assholes like this can have the kittens... yeah really cool.
hello every body heres a hint about bobcats be sure to take the cat to a vet before makeing him an inside cat some bobcats have perasites that make you sick some people died from it please remember my hint and becareful around wood areas thats where they like to attack they are very wild if you want to have a baby pet bobcat look in caves for bobcat nest and beware nomatter if its day or night the mother can still hear well and see realy good at night
can you get me 1 dude? there is no law ere in n ireland against keeping exotics, well at least there was nt, but that may have changed as some idiot let a pet puma loose & was running around the countryside killin sheep, its still at large. but i would love a bobcat they are a managable cat anything larger i think is just silly.
Nobody 'let a puma loose'. That's the lies being spread by animal rights activists, in order to frighten gullible busy-bodies and politicians into demanding laws to prevent 'children from being killed'. Those AR fanatics actually let big cats loose, call the news and law, just so they can then say that they've been say this would happen. If you have the right to have wild animal pets, fight to protect it, or sooner or later, it'll be gone. Bad owners are what should be banned.
Wouldn't take much for a bobcat to kill a pitbull, or any other dog for that matter. For all their viciousness, a dog only has their teeth. A bobcat has their teeth and razor-sharp claws at the end of all four limbs. A pitbull would not stand a chance in a fight to the death. It would be interesting to see though.
yeah man a mountain lion isn't even in the topic because we all know a mountain lion would eat a pit bull like a orio snack ... especially a full grown male ... there can get up to near 200 pounds...
Pitbulls are intimidating to humans. However, your insult aside, a pitbull would have NO chance against a bobcat. Yes, pitbulls are more aggressive, but if one picked a fight with a bobcat, and the bobcat engaged, it would be all over but the crying. The bobcat is WAY quicker, more agile, has claws that would rip any dog to shreds, and is probably even stronger than a pitbull.
Only retard is you for not knowing a dam thing about big cats.... a full grown adult male bobcat will take down a deer dude ... so yes they will eat your pitbull rather quickly ... there 10 times faster .... more aggresive when there mad ... BIG cats are the king of fighting dude ... besides a wolverine which would have fun eating a pitbull as well ...
Retard I don't have a pitbull. I simply dont believe bobcats will win.
I have two cats. Both are fair sized cats. 15-20lbs. A Bengal/Savannah cross.
Bobcats don't take down FULL SIZE deer. They take down fawns for fuck sakes. When they do take down a full size deer, the DEER is typically injured or a dead carcass never recovered during HUNTING season.
Go do some fucking reading about bobcats.
They are considered small-big cats. They aren't much BIGGER than my Bengal/Savannah.
Sorry bro, but I have quite a bit of interest in bobcats. I know for a fact that they do take down full sized deer and many other types of animals. They are vicious and usually go for the throat/back of the head just below the skull. They can bite repeatedly and VERY fast. I have done my reading. I plan to get one as a pet.
Bobcats, regardless, will attack smaller prey such as fawns. Statistically, 6 out of 40 deer killed, are full sized. They assume bobcats simply because they are feeding on the carcase.
In the rare cases a bobcat kills a deer, the deer is prone, therefore, a easy kill.
Dogs can kill deer too. However those same dogs would get destroyed by a Pitbull.
A Bobcat, albeit, a fair cat, would get killed 9/10 times. Bobcats, like cats, also run away when injured, unless trapped.
That is a wicked growl. When my cat, muffins II, gets run over or eaten by a dog or w/e I think I'll upgrade to one of these bad boys. How big do they get? If they get big enough to take out a 10-yo child I might have to tell my neighbors or something. Your kitty is cute btw!! Thanks for the video!
no we got him from the river when his eyes when his eyes were still closed it was the wrong time of seson when we got him so he prolly would have died

can you get me 1 dude? there is no law ere in n ireland against keeping exotics, well at least there was nt, but that may have changed as some idiot let a pet puma loose & was running around the countryside killin sheep, its still at large. but i would love a bobcat they are a managable cat anything larger i think is just silly.

Nobody 'let a puma loose'. That's the lies being spread by animal rights activists, in order to frighten gullible busy-bodies and politicians into demanding laws to prevent 'children from being killed'. Those AR fanatics actually let big cats loose, call the news and law, just so they can then say that they've been say this would happen. If you have the right to have wild animal pets, fight to protect it, or sooner or later, it'll be gone. Bad owners are what should be banned.

there is a comparison, in a death battle a bobcat would either bite his neck and kill him or ferociously claw him to death. pwn

A Pitbull would own a bobcat.
There is no comparison between the two.

Exactly, prove that a pitbull has been 'killed' by a 15-30lbs bobcat.
nixtux2003 3 years ago
Wouldn't take much for a bobcat to kill a pitbull, or any other dog for that matter. For all their viciousness, a dog only has their teeth. A bobcat has their teeth and razor-sharp claws at the end of all four limbs. A pitbull would not stand a chance in a fight to the death. It would be interesting to see though.

im sorry but you may be mistaken for mountain lions... they have killed some dogs in the town i live
yamahonda450 3 years ago
yeah man a mountain lion isn't even in the topic because we all know a mountain lion would eat a pit bull like a orio snack ... especially a full grown male ... there can get up to near 200 pounds...

there is no way this cat could kill a pitbull

I ageree, but you get thumbed down for thinking that.
Apparently, retardation is rampant on this video.
nixtux2003 3 years ago
Pitbulls are intimidating to humans. However, your insult aside, a pitbull would have NO chance against a bobcat. Yes, pitbulls are more aggressive, but if one picked a fight with a bobcat, and the bobcat engaged, it would be all over but the crying. The bobcat is WAY quicker, more agile, has claws that would rip any dog to shreds, and is probably even stronger than a pitbull.

Only retard is you for not knowing a dam thing about big cats.... a full grown adult male bobcat will take down a deer dude ... so yes they will eat your pitbull rather quickly ... there 10 times faster .... more aggresive when there mad ... BIG cats are the king of fighting dude ... besides a wolverine which would have fun eating a pitbull as well ...

Retard I don't have a pitbull. I simply dont believe bobcats will win.
I have two cats. Both are fair sized cats. 15-20lbs. A Bengal/Savannah cross.
Bobcats don't take down FULL SIZE deer. They take down fawns for fuck sakes. When they do take down a full size deer, the DEER is typically injured or a dead carcass never recovered during HUNTING season.
Go do some fucking reading about bobcats.
They are considered small-big cats. They aren't much BIGGER than my Bengal/Savannah.
nixtux2003 3 years ago
Sorry bro, but I have quite a bit of interest in bobcats. I know for a fact that they do take down full sized deer and many other types of animals. They are vicious and usually go for the throat/back of the head just below the skull. They can bite repeatedly and VERY fast. I have done my reading. I plan to get one as a pet.
Mushinronjya 3 years ago
Bobcats, regardless, will attack smaller prey such as fawns. Statistically, 6 out of 40 deer killed, are full sized. They assume bobcats simply because they are feeding on the carcase.
In the rare cases a bobcat kills a deer, the deer is prone, therefore, a easy kill.
Dogs can kill deer too. However those same dogs would get destroyed by a Pitbull.
A Bobcat, albeit, a fair cat, would get killed 9/10 times. Bobcats, like cats, also run away when injured, unless trapped.
Just my thoughts.
nixtux2003 3 years ago
Man I have done my reading ... RETARD ... maybe you should do some reading because you talking out your stink hole ...

Clearly you lack an ability to read since I have a pit bull (sarcasm.)

Where did you get your Bobcat? My Dad is interested in buying one for a pet too.

That is a wicked growl. When my cat, muffins II, gets run over or eaten by a dog or w/e I think I'll upgrade to one of these bad boys. How big do they get? If they get big enough to take out a 10-yo child I might have to tell my neighbors or something. Your kitty is cute btw!! Thanks for the video!
