Got a couple of pics of cats on a camera I setup on a fence opening. No feeder just a pass through with a tank about 50 yards behind the camera. The first is obviously a nice bobcat. The second has the coloring of an orange tabby but doesn't have the overall look of a house cat and the closest house is probably 2 miles away. Maybe some kind of feral cat?

Ok, that's what I thought at first but when I saw the other bobcat pic I started second guessing myself. Thanks for the help!

Tail is too long for a bobcat in the second picture. Big feral cat.

got to go with this one

damn things are all over, was pheasant hunting with a buddy one morning, and out of no where he pops off a round. I look at him and while he is turning to look at me, he asks, whats the limit on those damn things.

wasn't sure of the limit, just continued walking


Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting.......holy kaka.....What a Ride!

Bobcat and then house cat. Although that is one big house cat.

Feral cat in the second pic, had a completely white one show up on our camera once. Nearest residence was miles away. Never saw that cat again. Figured with him being completely white he wouldn't last long.

Funny you mention that cat surviving the coyotes... Here's some pics off the same camera the past few weeks.

To me the ears are too small, the tail is too long and the feet aren't big enough to be a bobcat.
