I fed a feral cat and her kittens at work after she gave birth in a large storage room next to my machine shop. The little ones were fine but mama would never stop hissing and spitting at me even when eating the food I gave her. Totally wild animal. Zero chance of taming. But one of the kittens bonded to me and ended up coming home with me after the mother left with the kittens for good one morning and this one refused to go with them.

Yeah... Even the most spicy feral cat can eventually be tamed though. I've seen it happen. Sometimes they live their entire kitty lives and then suddenly decide to become friendly when they're very old. I've had this happen.
Bobcats are a bit different, lol. Any non domestic animal should be left to be wild in their own habitat, but my grandmother has taken care of stray cats and kittens for years. Just yesterday I helped her bring one to the vet and he was honestly the chillest cat I’ve ever seen. Didn’t meow or growl at the vet once and was completely quiet the ride over. She found him after he was attacked by a dog. He had almost no fur due to a severe skin allergy, but ever since she started taking care of him he’s been really healthy.
@@brookeb4563I have too. Even tamed a few ferals. But this one was so wild that it must have had a hard life. Never lived around humans as far as I could tell. No chance of taming her.
@@user-dq5xx9hi4q yeah, there's a certain point even a domestic animal like a house cat just can't be tamed. Especially if it had little to no exposure to people as a baby when it's most impressionable.

Stray cats come to my place always, it seems.They know a cat daddy when they smell him. I have a feral black cat I've been feeding for over two years now. He knows I'm his father, yet he still won't let me touch him. It's funny. He sniffs my toes and then runs. But comes right back. He's even taken a step or two over the threshold.

I know, look at those _"kittens"_ , so cute. But then when the mother bobcat starts to hunt to feed her babies, it's kind of dangerous to cats and dogs around the area. And when the _"kittens"_ all grow up, they will attract more bobcats to that area. 😛😱 Btw, it's 2 year video. I wonder how the bobcat community over there doing right now 😁

Yes, the bobcat kitties are cute as heck, but I honestly think this sweet couple are even cuter! Lol They seem soooo sweet and like really nice folks. Awww. ❤
I've got a whole family of bobcats living on my land in South Carolina and it's common enough to be sitting in the front yard when they show theirselves. I'm not afraid to go outside and if they come close I just look at them and talk and let him know I see him and they watch me with all the curiosity that a cat of any kind possesses. Before the bobcats came I had a problem with venomous snakes rattlesnakes and copperheads in particular now there's not a single snake anywhere on my property so the bobcats are most welcome and very polite guests. I should say tenants since they earn their keep by destroying snakes and rodents especially squirrels which destroy house wiring in the attic.
yep! They are a good thing to have around. We have a female Great Horned Owl living in the big Juniper tree on our 5 acres. She is over 4 ft tall when sitting. HUGE bird. Gorgeous. We have no vermin problems at all.
Such a beautiful bobcat family. I would feel honoured, too, if they chose my home space to bring up their family. It's lovely to be able to coexist with nature's creatures.
When I was a kid we lived on the edge of a wilderness. A batch of 4 bobcat kittens and their mother began coming onto our back porch to clean up left over cat food. The kits were very tame and friendly and played with us kids just like our cats. The mother cat wouldn't come near, always stayed off in the yard watching. They got larger and began showing up less often when us kids stopped playing with them, and finally we didn't see them any more. When they are little kittens they are very much like common cats but when they get larger they are more aggressive in their play.
Yea other than one in nature where her kits can learn to hunt and survive in their natural world free from completely foreign threats like cars and human waste.
Crazy to think something so cute & tiny will grow in to a dangerous predator in a matter of months. I’m thankful the homeowners are so kind & understanding. This land belongs to the animals too so it’s only fair that we share when possible.
They usually don’t stick around too long. As stated, she basically just needed a quiet safe place to give birth and feed her kitties. They hate noise like radios and they can’t stand motion flood lights coming on at night. If there’s no kids around or no immediate use for the patio I would just wait it out..
@@ILOVEMARILYNMANSON89 the neighbors are also in their natural habitat and should be aware that their pets are at risk of getting caught by a bobcat anyway. If not their porch they would have chose someone else's porch.
Glad you accept them and respect them what a wonder full experience you both had so much of a treasure I hope you will enjoy their habitation and magnificence Bob Cats are American native beauty
I had a Bob Cat Kitten when I was 20 yo. She was a sweatheart. Like having a Doberman with claws! She was my running buddy and protector. I had her until she was full grown. She thought she was a Domestic Cat! She left all the chickens and other Farm Animals to themselves. A great pet, because I raised from a baby. She didn't know anything else. I eventually gave her to the local Zoo and they loved her, because she was so gentle to be around. She loved to cuddle and sleep in my lap while I watch TV.
@@V.E.R.O. It was either give her to someone who would raise and feed her, ir put her down. You just don't set domesticated wild animals loose. They won't survive without humans. And she won't understand how to survive as a feral animal. And most humans will not see her as a pet. The Zoo gladly took her in and made sure she had everything she needed. Human interaction, red meat and safe shelter. She lived almost 15 more years. Funny side note: I ended up divorced 18 years later and was single for 10 years. I actually dated the Daughter of the Head Vetrenarian at the Zoo. She rememberd Vanessa and spoke of her fondly. She was a young teenager when I gave her to them.I even met her father and he remembereed her. Her family were great people and I spent many days with them at their house.
I understood there plight when he was talking about all the entities he’d hoped might provide a solution. I’ve been in similar circumstances. I think most assume someone somewhere is designated to help with all wildlife matters than you have a matter you need assistance with and find you’re alone. I’m glad they have a kind and compassionate attitude about the whole thing. Hope all worked out. Hope the kittens all grew up and are thriving. Hope no one ended up going through any paper shredders. Blessings to all involved.
Exactly I can't imagine being given the run around by government agencies. Stupid bureaucracy. I like how Americans turn to the News to name and shame bad actors and it usually gets the problem solved afterwards. 😁 They raised valid points about neighbors' pers. I also worry about neighbors' kids, their grandchildren and the couple's safety and comfort they are not exactly young and agile
They are respectful to nature because I would 100% have gone outside and fed them and tried to make friends with a whole group of bobcat kitties, I could not resist the urge
@ᕼᗴY! ᕼᗩᐯᗴ ᗩ ᘜOOᗪ ᑎIᘜᕼT. by the statement of stating something visually identified "WILD " WITH FAUNAS IT meant they all are by nature unconventional,it's safe to REGARD IT A HOSTILE ENCOUNTER .
A cat will never lay her babies where she knows they will not be safe 🙏 thank you wonderful beautiful kind soul for allowing them to roam freely as they should❤
They can be litter box trained just like a house cat. But, with Momma around that will be a challenge until they can train Momma. And since Mommas wild, that probably won't happen.
They're all over the place in North Texas. In River Legacy park I would see them so frequently while cycling that one of them walked up and "marked" my front tire with his cheek. I guess my bike belongs to him now!
This couple is so sweet and compassionate- Momma bobcat knew her and her babies would be safe, I bet they'll be free from raccoons, rodents and moles- hope more people see this story and learn from their goodness.
my papa had foxes under his deck for three years straight. they would come in the late winter, then leave mid summer. such playful little creatures. they love apples, too
Upstate New Yorker here - when I was a kid, a bobcat decided the little loft in our garage was a perfect maternity ward and nursery. We were surprised that there didn't leave - we didn't stop using the space. While Mom would go nowhere near and I was told to stay away, Dad just made sure to make enough noise that the mama wasn't startled when he needed something. They eventually left when the kits were old enough. No harm done...
What’s precious is this couple! What decent people! Thank you for being kind to the wildlife and keeping a respectful distance. I hope a humane resolution is found.
"I don't want to look like I went through a paper shredder"....lol yup! That's a perfect description of what would happen. Kudos to this sweet couple for letting this family use their backyard and patio as a bobcat jungle gym. They are definitely getting a great start in life. I hope we get an update on this story. I wish they had a camera set up for live streaming these beautiful babies. 😉👍🏻❤
They are adorable,but what a predicament,I cannot believe that they cannot be safely moved ,but hopefully as people have commented they will move on,it isn;t really safe for them or domestic pets for them to stay there
Be patient. The mama bobcat is just protecting her babies. They're wild. I'm sure they'll move on in time like all wildlife eventually does. Please let us all know how it goes. 🙏❤Thank you for your kindness.
Me too. Honorable of them to allow the kittens and Mom to stay there. They're surely cute little bobcats. I'd like to adopt one as a pet. Of course, he or she would be a mostly indoor cat.🐈🤗🥰

@@ILOVEMARILYNMANSON89 you shouldn't let your pets out unsupervised
*runs to the hardware store* “yes uummm, do you happen to have a sign that says, beware of bobcat momma?”
Better try Staples , they make custom signs.
Glad you accept them and respect them what a wonder full experience you both had so much of a treasure
I hope you will enjoy their habitation and magnificence Bob Cats are American native beauty
This woman is a lovely person godbless her
Well, at least nobody will try to rob the house.
At least not successfully if attempting thru the backyard or patio door.
🤣🤣🤣
You underestimate today's urban gangs / Biden voters.
@@railfanningpoints2.045 We have a zombie problem already?
@@railfanningpoints2.045 what??!
Wow 😳
That momma bob cat sure knows her squatter’s rights.
Check and Mate! ♟
I would put poison bait out
These are dangerous animals
@@steelisthemeal I really hope you're trolling. There's no need to kill them. Also you do realize domestic animals are likely to die from poison bait?
@@queenbunnyfoofoo6112 Yes. A bad idea, no doubt. I hope the couple contacts a zoo or animal shelter to get some advice.
@@giovanna8187 I imagine they'll all move on when the kittens get a bit bigger.
@@queenbunnyfoofoo6112 That would be grand :)
Those cubs are the cutest things ever!
blessings to those two families❤
It's clear why the mom trusts these people. They're wonderful! ❤️
I had a Bob Cat Kitten when I was 20 yo. She was a sweatheart. Like having a Doberman with claws! She was my running buddy and protector. I had her until she was full grown. She thought she was a Domestic Cat! She left all the chickens and other Farm Animals to themselves. A great pet, because I raised from a baby. She didn't know anything else. I eventually gave her to the local Zoo and they loved her, because she was so gentle to be around. She loved to cuddle and sleep in my lap while I watch TV.
Keeping wild animals as pets usually ends badly and is not something to be encouraged
I would've kept her and if animal control came by asking questions I'd play dumb and tell them I thought she was just a big, fuzzy cat.🙂
Why did you give her to the zoo, were you forced to?
@@falcoperegrinus82 Depends entirely upon the "wild" animal. How many millions of people have pet birds?
@@V.E.R.O. It was either give her to someone who would raise and feed her, ir put her down. You just don't set domesticated wild animals loose. They won't survive without humans. And she won't understand how to survive as a feral animal. And most humans will not see her as a pet. The Zoo gladly took her in and made sure she had everything she needed. Human interaction, red meat and safe shelter. She lived almost 15 more years.
Funny side note: I ended up divorced 18 years later and was single for 10 years. I actually dated the Daughter of the Head Vetrenarian at the Zoo. She rememberd Vanessa and spoke of her fondly. She was a young teenager when I gave her to them.I even met her father and he remembereed her. Her family were great people and I spent many days with them at their house.
They are a beautiful bunch of wild cats 🐈
I understood there plight when he was talking about all the entities he’d hoped might provide a solution. I’ve been in similar circumstances. I think most assume someone somewhere is designated to help with all wildlife matters than you have a matter you need assistance with and find you’re alone. I’m glad they have a kind and compassionate attitude about the whole thing. Hope all worked out. Hope the kittens all grew up and are thriving. Hope no one ended up going through any paper shredders. Blessings to all involved.
Exactly I can't imagine being given the run around by government agencies. Stupid bureaucracy. I like how Americans turn to the News to name and shame bad actors and it usually gets the problem solved afterwards. 😁
They raised valid points about neighbors' pers. I also worry about neighbors' kids, their grandchildren and the couple's safety and comfort they are not exactly young and agile
Such a nice couple !! Anyone else would’ve tried to sell them!
Anyone else would have tried to sell them? We have them all over the place and no one ever tries to sell them, lol.
I've never seen anyone selling bobcats before either. This is the que for other commenters to lie about how their neighbors sell them all the time.
I’d have challenged Mama Bobcat to a life-or-death cage match, easily snapped her neck, THEN sold the kittens to a Chinese restaurant.
Including me
Who buys bobcats...?
The Roses seem like really kind people. God bless them!
Such a blessing from Jesus, to have those precious babies!
They are respectful to nature because I would 100% have gone outside and fed them and tried to make friends with a whole group of bobcat kitties, I could not resist the urge
It's all fun and games until they get the keys to the house...
😂😂😂😂😂
And then call Grub hub for dinner delivery…
Right!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😅🤣😂🤣😅😅🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
They are so adorable.
Until one attacks you. You people are stupid. It's still a wild animal.
@ᕼᗴY! ᕼᗩᐯᗴ ᗩ ᘜOOᗪ ᑎIᘜᕼT. by the statement of stating something visually identified "WILD " WITH FAUNAS IT meant they all are by nature unconventional,it's safe to REGARD IT A HOSTILE ENCOUNTER .
I guess I'd better be careful not to ever say any wild animal is cute, otherwise some jackass will attack me and call me stupid.
Those baby bobcats are darling. Please keep the mama cat and the babies safe.
They are so happy and enjoying life. Beautiful creatures. Hope they are safe
I love how that woman said it was a blessing I believe it sure is!❤️
i read that title wrong at first. i was like, "what is an alien couple doing talking to the news about bobcats?"
Hahaha
A cat will never lay her babies where she knows they will not be safe 🙏 thank you wonderful beautiful kind soul for allowing them to roam freely as they should❤
Wonderful people you are. ❤ Thank You!
The cats will move on on THEIR own...
@China Boss it's free Fertilizer Delivery...
@China Boss You could never find meee... Nothing is at my name...🔎🔎🔎📸😂😂😂.
This is not my real name...
@China Boss clean it then
They can be litter box trained just like a house cat. But, with Momma around that will be a challenge until they can train Momma. And since Mommas wild, that probably won't happen.
@China Boss you might be boss. But I am Grand Marshal Leader.
Mamma trusts her babies with these ppl.
How cute! Adorable and huggable!
Beautiful animals...God 🙏 bless this couple !
They're all over the place in North Texas. In River Legacy park I would see them so frequently while cycling that one of them walked up and "marked" my front tire with his cheek. I guess my bike belongs to him now!
@Jim Eagle Bobcats don't have talons, they have claws just like any cat. Just bigger.
@Jim Eagle barely? I said they're bigger.
@Jim Eagle Well....a bobcat is a lot bigger than a domestic cat, so its claws are going to be proportionally bigger and longer. How's that?
This couple is so sweet and compassionate- Momma bobcat knew her and her babies would be safe, I bet they'll be free from raccoons, rodents and moles- hope more people see this story and learn from their goodness.
good point! Ricky Rat and his family have been removed from under the deck.
Enjoy the uniquite life event. I am actually envious:) Good luck and many prayers!! Thank you for being kind to them
Sweetest couple! Both are precious. And yes, it is an honor.
my papa had foxes under his deck for three years straight. they would come in the late winter, then leave mid summer. such playful little creatures. they love apples, too
Actually humans moved into Bobcat's backyard. Now humans need to behave.
Actually, under Darwinism we're just doing what comes naturally to us.
Actually I’m really f’n high 😎
i'd like to see the bobcat title of ownership. yeah, i didnt think so. try harder.
@rico yungboy 401 you first
@rico yungboy 401 If you really believe humans are bad for the Earth, you have a moral obligation to "go first"
I love watching them play with one another. Nature is wonderful.
Upstate New Yorker here - when I was a kid, a bobcat decided the little loft in our garage was a perfect maternity ward and nursery. We were surprised that there didn't leave - we didn't stop using the space. While Mom would go nowhere near and I was told to stay away, Dad just made sure to make enough noise that the mama wasn't startled when he needed something. They eventually left when the kits were old enough. No harm done...
It's a cute problem, at least.😍
I know they are wild animals, but they are so cute! I would probably be sitting at that window watching all day.
Right! I’d probably try to run out and grab one to play with when momma is not there
❤YOURE WONDERFUL PEOPLE, what a joy!
This is beautiful….😊and the family is so kind to the family. Much respect folks.
How wonderful to be able to see them play up close in safety !!!
What’s precious is this couple! What decent people!
Thank you for being kind to the wildlife and keeping a respectful distance.
I hope a humane resolution is found.
Thank you for giving the bobcats a safe place. You are good people❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
It IS a great honor! Get them on film as much as possible before they grow up & move out!
"I don't want to look like I went through a paper shredder"....lol yup! That's a perfect description of what would happen.
Kudos to this sweet couple for letting this family use their backyard and patio as a bobcat jungle gym. They are definitely getting a great start in life. I hope we get an update on this story. I wish they had a camera set up for live streaming these beautiful babies. 😉👍🏻❤
They are adorable,but what a predicament,I cannot believe that they cannot be safely moved ,but hopefully as people have commented they will move on,it isn;t really safe for them or domestic pets for them to stay there
They are territorial. When the kittens get big enough they will go hunting with their mother and eventually move out.
Be patient. The mama bobcat is just protecting her babies. They're wild. I'm sure they'll move on in time like all wildlife eventually does.
Please let us all know how it goes.
🙏❤Thank you for your kindness.
What a nice couple. “I don’t wanna look like I been through a paper shredder” lol
How incredibly lucky 🍀 they are to be able to watch them up close! 👍☮️🌞🐾❤️
I love this couple. They know they are blessed, and are respectful of wildlife.
The housing market is really tight, both rental and ownership. Bobcats have to have homes, too.
Adorable family😊
How SWEET!❤❤❤
SOOOOO adorable!
We humans need to share our spaces with animals ... it's their planet too!
Omg, they are extremely cute tho...
Thank you Allen couple for being so kind to animals......
They are absolutely adorable I can’t say I wouldn’t want to keep one!!!!😂❤
So adorable!❤
You are good people! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
So cute,..we did invade their territory. Kool the couple are hip about it and trying to help the critters.X
In the mean time take as much video of them as you can and enjoy watching those 5 cute bobcat kittens play and grow up on your patio!!
Me too. Honorable of them to allow the kittens and Mom to stay there. They're surely cute little bobcats. I'd like to adopt one as a pet. Of course, he or she would be a mostly indoor cat.🐈🤗🥰
