We spent the rest of the day scouring the mountain trying to find his den to see if he had any brothers or sisters but had no luck. Will keep looking but as weak as he was the chances are slim.

Even though it was a ltl sad it was so cool to get to hold a baby bobcat! His ltl face was so cute that I'm def in love! I hope the ltl guy makes it!

awwww, lookit that face!

Very cute - hope he makes it. Keep us posted.

Dear lord that face! The cuteness it hurts!!

I would be so tempted to keep him. I'm sure it wouldn't take long before that little guy made me change my mind.

Update.....

Pisgah is doing great! He is strong and eating well!! He was transfered to Blue Ridge Wildlife Institute. They are now looking for a friend for him. Today he caught a mouse!!!!! I wish you all could have heard the ltl growls he was making. It was adorable. They thumped the mouse on the head so he was a ltl disoriented (that way he wouldn't run away to fast) and my boy ponced on him!!!!! He struted around with it in his mouth and I swear he was grinning. That means he has enough of the wild instinct to stay wild. No zoo or cages for my boy!

I am so happy and excited. I feel like such a proud mama

Those blue eyes and cute face just captured my heart. I can't wait till he's big enough to turn loose.

We're still looking for brothers or sister but I think we are to late to help them. *sniff* We'll keep looking for another couple days just to be sure.

That's awesome!

That's great! I'm amazed that such a tiny little cub can still be a killing machine

Did the vet have any idea how old he was?

I think I had the 243 that day. I don't think I was using my cousins 300 Ultra Mag that day.

What a cutie! Glad to hear he's doin' well.

We have many bobcats here. I've seen a few. Jumped outta the car to try and pet a baby once. My husband just sat behind the wheel, shakin' his head! LOL
