A bobcat has been spotted on the small side of the neighborhood. Please be aware and to watch your small pets closely while outside. Bobcats are known to stalk small animals for food.
Though the bobcat prefers rabbits, it will hunt anything from insects and small rodents to deer. Prey selection depends on location and habitat, season, and abundance. Like most cats, the bobcat is territorial and largely solitary, although there is some overlap in home ranges. It uses several methods to mark its territorial boundaries, including claw marks and deposits of urine or feces. The bobcat breeds from winter into spring and has a gestation period of about two months.
