- A lot of people have the opinion when they watch this video for the first time that my bobcat is being aggressive and that he wants to kill my domestic cat, but if you watch it again there are some things to look for that show very clearly that he's not exhibiting any aggressive behaviors, and is not meaning any harm whatsoever, so I'll do a little break down of the video and what is really happening. also a bobcat has never killed an animal that it was raised with from birth. So at the beginning you see a short couple second chase which sounds loud, but only lasts a couple seconds and covers about 3 feet. lol Then they stop and my domestic sits down and gives a small warning growl. Nothing too crazy, but just telling my bobcat to stop it. and notice the body language of my bobcat here. after the growl from the domestic he turns his head, then backs up. then yawns. lol and then Lets out a small high pitched "whine" sound basically saying, "come on. I still want to play. why are we stopping?" because right before I turned the camera on they were playing and wrestling. my bobcat then retreats, turns around and comes back, very relaxed, with no signs of tension, he tests to see if my cat wants to play by stepping a little closer to him, and my domestic lets out another little warning growl, still nothing too crazy, but just telling him he's done playing. and again you see my bobcat in a submissive posture, looking down, trying to look seemingly disinterested, smelling the oven, and then in complete submission just laying down. Then my domestic calmly jumps up onto the counter, not to get away like some people are saying, but just to get onto the counter because that's one of his favorite places to lay. If he were scared he would literally run away, across the house and try to hide somewhere. But he's not afraid, and has nothing to run from. and then my bobcat of course follows. Not fast, but curious. and my domestic lets out another little growl saying "stop following me" lol. then Benji lets out another little whine, then sits, then yawn number two. When a bobcat is being aggressive or is mad or wants to kill an animal they do not yawn. haha. Still nothing aggressive on my bobcat's part. and he jumps up on the counter, and gets too close and knows to stop before he gets smacked by my cat. Then yawn number 3. Then looks at me with that shit eating grin. and eyes almost closed because he is dead tired. Then you hear some sounds from my bobcat which are whiney sounds, spoiled brat sounds because he's not getting his way, and even though he is so tired, he still just wants to play. and then more sounds, that if people aren't familiar with can be misinterpreted as aggressive sounds, but definitely are not. just being a brat and not getting my way sounds Then finally, so tired, trying to keep his eyes open just slides down to lay down. .realizing that he's way too tired to play anymore and if he keeps it up he's going to get smacked by my domestic. and of course then we have yawn number 4. and trying so hard just to keep his eyes open. and people are saying he's trying to kill my domestic cat. lol. seriously? I don't know what video people are watching but it's certainly not this video. and they are now laying next to each other, completely calm and this is where they fell asleep and slept for an hour or so after I got done filming. A domestic cat would not be sleeping next to an animal that it was afraid of and would not stay there if it felt it was in any kind of danger. Hope this helps explain

i didn't know bobcats sounded like a camcorder from 1989 zooming non stop. weird.
I almost thought I made this comment but it turns out we just have the same picture! lol
watch the whole video
Hahaha!
u must be deaf
That's funny because Casey Neistat, Jesse Wellens, McJuggernuggets, and several others must have bobcats too because when they use certain cameras you can hear the same sound. Interesting isn't it? Anyway I use the Canon 70D. and that camera has been knocked out of my hands and thrown around by my bobcat. I've dropped it while skateboarding. but it still works. It doesn't matter what equipment you use, and if you watch any of those guys I mentioned they have made videos about that it's not the equipment you use. You don't have to have the best camera or set up, but it's about the content. and evidently over a million people came to this video and don't make jabs about something so unimportant about the video. Why not be positive instead of round about putting people down? That only makes you look bad. and like Casey, jesse and the other jesse and many youtubers have said, it doesn't matter what camera you are using whether it's a camera phone, a point and shoot or an expensive camera, it's all about the content, connecting to your viewers and making something interesting. I'd much rather film with a piece of shit and make a million views than waste all my money on an expensive camera and produce content that's shitty. Having a better attitude and not putting people down may help to get you more than 47 subscribers. Using broken cameras, and mid range cameras has done really well for my success on youtube on my channels over the years.

You're ignorant of these animals
Foreal that small cat gone be fighting for it live and all lmao im trying get me a bobcat
Nah..the bobcat's th ed one yhat's spoiled...he sees the other cat as a threat
@@jackbarnes9728 how so, it is a true risk
@@bluwng If raised from a young age together, 6-12 weeks, there's no more danger than having a big dog around. Animals form a resilient bond together, especially if really young. Of course there's always a story that's an outlier but if the animal isn't unusually aggressive there's little to worry about. Especially between 2 animals in the cat family. I have one and 2 house cats and when the house cats were 8 weeks old the bobcat actually treated them as a baby, cleaning them, licking their butt even and coming from a different part of the house when kitten started to meow loudly to see what was going on. The bobcat is a neutered male too.
"be nice to people"
"EEEEEEEEUGHEEEUUUUGH"
He is being nice. The other cat doesn't want him near, but I don't think the bobcat is trying to be mean. Our old man cat likes his space. The young brothers will try to sit near him, play with him, they'll even roll on their back to show they're not a threat and he just doesn't care-he'll swipe at them and hiss.
I'll take "Noises I don't want to hear in my house in the middle of the night" for 1000 Alex.

Clearly the domestic cat has more confidence than the bobcat! So cute haha
It looks to me like the whole situation is dangerous and sressful for all the animals! The demotic cats did not look comfortable at all, it’s ears are pressed back and the dog looked like it was concerned about the situation.
Now imagine hearing that when you're camping out at night.
I can't wait.
...what would you think if you hear the snicker of a hyaena in the middle of the night?
Sounds like me when taking a shit

The yawn is a way to brake tension for all cats :) Hilarious.
The yawn is him showing his teeth he's saying look little dude my teeth are bigger then your's
All mammals yawn to indicate a desire to not fight but are still under stress and feel threatened enough to try and break the tension with a yawn. The cats teeth are a bonus.
James Kenway Cats also yawn to perceive the odors of the environment.
James Kenway Very true!
Actually, even with my domesticated house cats, I’ve seen the yawn used 3 different ways...
1.) As you stated, the yawn can be used to show the cat is bored and is uninterested in fighting.
2.) One of my cats uses the yawn in the context stated above - as a TRICK to make the other cat THINK he’s disinterested. Then when my 2nd cat lets her guard down, he pounces on her in a sneaky but aggressive way to get the upper hand (kind of how we might interpret a “sucker punch” between humans).
3.) Then of course there’s the yawn that’s simply a yawn.
okay okay who has the talking cat who said WHY it is yawning lol
Growls menacingly.
Then yawns.
Haha. Yes.
mad respect for this man knowing the body language of his cats and knowing that neither are in any danger. i personally did not know what the two cats were “discussing” before i read the description, and though i did not think the bobcat was trying to attack the domestic, it’s nice to know that their owner knows exactly what his pets are doing and is willing to educate others. i love people like this :)
Thank you Hannah. I've been helping to educate people for many years about wildlife and conservation. Some people don't understand or they think they know everything even though they've never even seen a bobcat other than in pictures on the internet. Lol. Thank you again.
@@egroegartfart you need to upgrade to a Fujifilm XS10 camera
I admire that too. He’s definitely a loving owner who would take the time to know hits cats behaviors this intimately. I’ve had cats for as long as I can remember and when you spend years with them you learn cat body language. I could easily see they are friends just having a little spat over personal space! 😂
The power of Christ compels you!!!
lol calm down

Thumbs up, the bob cat sounded like reagan
hahahhhhahahahahahahahaa
My friend made that exact sound when he got kicked in the nuts as a joke by another friend..... so my friend's a bobcat!
David Y 😂😂😂😂
David Y Like that Home Alone scene where Kevin shoots Marv in the balls. lol
David Y -- Incorrect, incorrect! Does your friend walk like a bobcat? Does your friend smell like a bobcat? Does your friend eat like a bobcat? Your friend makes the sound of a bobcat, but apparently *only* in certain circumstances. Your conclusion about your friend's animal type is based on insufficient data.
this cat got kicked in the nuts then
Nailed it lol
That noise is otherworldly. Creepy yet fascinating 🤘
Lone Wanderer like a nazgul
Cat: I own this house and these humans...
Bobcat: The cat era is over. Humans belong to me now...
Bobcat is also a cat. Still cat era.
@Peter M
its still a "cat era" for humans of that house... just a ... how you say? ...

Ma’iq, you dirty little liar......
This one needs something
just like a cat to growl and yawn at the same time
Braca Ganon Any animal, human or otherwise, yawns a lot after having a stroke. I know. 10.5 years ago my stroke left me not able to get the oxygen I needed, so for about 7 years I yawned about every 30 seconds. I don't growl much though, unless it's my turn to wash the dishes. ;-)
Cristos Palabras Hahaha nice comment
Cristos Palabras omg you yawned non stop for seven years?! the doctors couldn't do anything? and didn't your eyes water ALot?
Jasmin Morris When I cut onions, yes.
A cat yawning (dogs also do this) is trying to diffuse tension. Even though the bobcat kept pursuing the cat, he also wanted to show that he really wasn't interested in a conflict, so he kept yawning to show this.
The domestic cat has kind of co-evolved with us to produce a friendly, high frequency sound that gets our attention more, whereas wild cats have stuck with a sound that is more threatening and aggressive
Cheetah- Allow me to introduce myself!!!
And this Guy had to find a Neutral and that's why he sounds like he's a Chain Smoker
But they still look cute though
@@johndoherty487 , Cougars also can make pleasant meows but they're also notorious for that iconic cougar roar.
True! @@suckmybic6197 Even though a cougars roar is technically not a roar. But still sounds threatening. Cougars can also make sweet pleasant meows like house cats. Especially big Derrick's friendly pet cougar Cassie.
I most certainly would pee my pants if i heard that sound coming out of the woods.
Sk P I think he said sh*t my pants. But don’t quote me
@@SneakyyAhkk_ you think who said that? Lol what?
I didn't pee my pants or shit them, but I did get stalked by a bobcat on a short hike in the NW Montana hills one fine August day. My two dogs and I were just walking along a little trail when something made every. one. of. my. cells. freeze.
I look down ~ both dogs frozen pointing in different directions. WTF wazzat?? It took several long moments to get moving again but we carried on. 3 times our blood, muscles, organs, brains froze. I couldn't pinpoint what the sound even was much less where it came from. I mean I'm looking up, around in front behind everywhere--WTF WAS THAT??! I was remembering the denim blue poop I had noticed next to the fire pit at the beginning of our hike and I'm slowly thinking Oh SHIT! That was somebody's jeans! Digested and shat out. Omgomgomg. It wasn't until several weeks later, reading about bobcats that I ID'd our stalker: They cough when they're watching you. I tell ya, my Jungian collective consciousness screamed OH SHIT every time that S.O.B. coughed. There was no fight. No flight. Only freeze.
@@aaaaaaoooommmm ohhh oh my god
aaaaaaoooommmm I can definitely relate; I was bivying last night and heard this thing screaming and snarling, circling me, it’s the worst sound I have ever heard
Sounds like me when i am tryin to shit
XD
thanks for the pleasant mental picture
lmfao!!!!!!!!!!!!
You might want to see a doctor then....
-" why are you being mean to everybody? "
-" umm cuz im a bobcat, duh "
the bobcat isn't being mean, it tries to show that its friendly, thats the reason it yawns. As a way to show it's not hostile. The problem is that the cat and the bobcat are speaking two different languages. It's like comparing english and chinese.
Yawning is a threat display actually. Animals don't show their teeth if they are friendly. I think he is just bullying the cat a bit.
Kaiser Frost nah dogs do this too. They yawn to relieve stress and show they aren't looking for a fight.
Kaiser Frost
You mean baring the teeth when their lips curl back. That’s different.
I never noticed that a bobcat sounded like a screaming goat but quietly
That SMILE when it gets up on the counter, LOL
My Kid has the same smart ass smirk. "Haha, I got away with it!"
reminded me of bela lugosi as dracula just staring at his next victim.
Sounds like me when having hard to poop

@@stylin60es yes
HAA!!!!!!!
Oh my gosh. Ive been sad for hours and you just made me remember it feels so good to laugh
To much cheese ???
That house cat's like really? I have to live with a bobcat?
It's pretty clear when he lies down on the floor and the on the counter he sits that he's not being aggressive.
It's cute with that twitchy tail and yawning though that he knows he's being a nuisance and/or is the younger sibling to boss housecat 😆 I don't know why UA-cam keeps suggesting these animal videos but I can't stop clicking now!
House cats like "cous, you NEED to chill!"
"Who brought your big wild ass in this house? They need to be throwing you outside..where you BELONG!" LOL
Wow, people in foreign countries speak better English than you. What grade did you drop out of school?
That sound... I haven't heard that since John Carpenter's "The Thing."
Or when the garbage disposal went out.
I was thinking that as well.
GET OUT THE BLOOD TEST
This poor animal has to face a bully every day.
timewarped2the80s LOOKS LIKE KITTY IS STILL ALIVE...BOBCAT IS VERY RELAXED....
Yeah the poor bobcat gets picked on by the domestic
Read the descriptiooooon
My thoughts exactly...what a dick this guy is for posting this
Thanks for sharing. I'm not to familiar with keeping a pet Bobcat, but I'm very familiar with domestic cats. And your Tabby was very chill. He even loafed on the island which is one of the most non threatening/relaxed positions a cat could be in. I saw no danger here.
Thank you foxy. Yes. I'm not sure what it is. I think maybe most people are seeing his movements and hearing the sounds he makes and are just not used to any of that and just assume he wants to kill my domestic cat. I would not have them together if there was any danger or if my domestic cat was suffering at all mentally, emotionally or physically because of Benji. They were best friends. They slept next to each other, groomed each other all day long and played together. And they played very hard. Bobcats are rough when it comes to play but my domestic kept right up with him. But he tired out a lot faster. Just like in this video. I tried to turn the camera on while they were wrestling so I could show that but almost as soon as I turned it on of course my domestic had had enough playing. And then what you are seeing here is their daily ritual and aftermath after playing. Benji never wants to stop and wants to keep chasing and getting chased and wrestling but my domestic was pooped. So eventually he had to let Benji know he was done. And Benji never had any idea that my domestics were done playing until they smacked him on the head and hissed at him. Then he would immediately roll onto his back and submit or give up. He gave up here and then they laid down and took a nap for an hour and then continued right where they left off. My domestics were all alphas to Benji because they were older and we're there first and that's how bobcats see things. So they are subservient to them. When they put their first.......or paw I'm this case down. Lol. He would listen. It was an interesting pecking order. Kind of similar to what you see with wolves. He didn't know it but if he wanted to hurt or kill them he could have in an instant. But when bobcats are raised with any other animal they love them and do not hurt them. Or want to hurt them. He killed ground hogs, possums, raccoons. Tons of birds that got too close to his enclosure outside and he would have killed their neighbors huge dogs if they would have gotten too close. But that's only because he wasn't raised with them. They are very protective of their habitat and their family. His habitat just so happened to be my house and property. And his family was my animals and I. He was amazing. And I miss him every day. The most amazing thing to me which still amazes me today was my deer. We rescued the deer and him the same week. They were both 3 weeks old. The deer was not planned. But we took her in with the intentions of finding her a home after she was better and old enough and before he matured and saw her as prey as bobcats hunt deer in the wild regularly. But they followed each other around all day. They groomed each other. I don't know if you saw that in any of my videos. We always said he was tenderizing her for when he wanted to have her for dinner. Lol. Just no. Stop grooming. She would be soaking wet from his saliva from grooming her. Lol. But he just loves her and he protected her. If my domestic animals went up to her he would run and get in between her and them so they couldn't get close to her and then outside in the enclosure people from my town came to visit them every single day. To feed her carrots and talk to Benji and just watch them interact and play. And all my animals would be in that enclosure playing, chasing each other. Jumping in the pond and swimming and wrestling. My rottweiler. My deer, Benji, my boxer, and four domestic cats all out there just having a ball. And people loved watching them interact. I had a barrier so that people could not get closer than three feet away from the enclosure just for safety because bobcats are very dangerous. But if he thought someone was getting too close to Athena my deer,. He would sprint over just like he did with the domestics and stand in between her and the people protecting her. It was amazing. And the most amazing thing.....and this is the last thing I promise. Lol. Sorry this is so long. But the most amazing thing was bobcats are food aggressive. Every single one. Just because they are a wild predator. You can see him eating a chicken or rabbits or deer in my videos. Not my deer. Lol. But when he ate he growled the entire time. And if you got to close he would scream and snarl and even lunge at you. Eventhough two minutes before that he was on my lap purring and. Being lovable. Food just makes them very aggressive. So when I fed him I would put him out in the enclosure and lock the doggy door so none of the other animals could go out there with him while he was eating. Every animal except for Athena, my deer. And it happened by accident. Somehow the one day when I fed him I didn't see that she was already in the enclosure. So I actually locked her in the enclosure with Benji while he was eating a big chicken. I just happened to walk outside maybe ten minutes later to see how he was doing with his chicken. He wasn't growling. Just eating calmly and I saw her laying literally touching him right next to him as he was eating that bloody chicken with organs and feathers and blood all over the place. She's laying here licking Benji's back. I freaked out. But I realized almost immediately what was happening. Nothing was happening. He was just eating. And she was laying right there next to him. I almost made a huge mistake there by not making sure all the animals were out of the enclosure. I got very lucky. But from that day on she was always in there with him when he ate. It was just crazy. But anyway I just wrote a book here. Lol. Sorry about that. I'd love to make some more videos telling these little stories about Benji and my other animals. Not sure people would want to hear them but I have so many. He was just constantly doing something funny or crazy or just amazing. So I have a ton of these stories like this. Anyway thank you foxy. Hope you have a nice day.
What a stressful situation for the cat...poor kitty :-(
read the discription the cat wasn't stressed
READ THE DISCIPTON PLZ
Stressful for the cat ?... The cat looks completely relaxed through the video. He looks like he is saying "go away, I'm too tired to play", and then trying to decide if the counter is a good place for a nap.
Besides, if he felt stressed or threatened, he probably wouldn't stay on the counter lying down next to the "threat". Nothing is stopping him from leaving, running away, or going to hide somewhere. He probably stays there because he wants to. Or, knowing cats, more likely because he's just too lazy to move : the bobcat isn't bothering him enough to warrant expending energy by moving elsewhere.
"BLREUGHGBBLREEUGHH REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE READ THEEEEE DESCRIPTIONNNNNN BLEEEURGGHNGBGBGBG"
Lol fucking morons actually think that this is a defence
@@quaesitrix881 you don't "run away" from a wild animal are you kidding me?
I agree he doesn't look mean or aggressive. But your cat does look stressed by the bobcat - who is a different breed & size and has a very different, more aggressive way of playing. That's the issue I have. Your cat doesn't like it and it's not just about the "spoiled" brat getting his way. All feelings need to be respected. Even fed up, stressed cats who don't want to play. They're both super cute btw.
Thanks Maria. But they are best friends. If you saw my other videos you would see that. If you have pets, they will have disagreements and get pissed at each other once in awhile. My domestic cat was already asleep when I turned off the camera and my bobcat fell asleep soon after. It was nothing. They were up and wrestling and playing like usual an hour later. animals will have little spats.
Maria Rohmer, I do agree with you... the poor cat 🐱 is very much intimidated 🥺🥺🥺
@Jordan Patrick It's a cat, you little nerd. God help any pet you have if your response to someone pointing out an animal is distressed is to call them a snowflake. Watch less angry youtube white bois, and leave the house once in a while.
@Jordan Patrick I like you. You make good sense. Also love that you chose to let the bobcat live despite what it did. You sound awesome, have a very nice day, week, month, and year.
And no that's not sarcasm. I mean that :)
I bet they were playing chase games, one chases the other until it gets to a certain spot like shoe pile then they reverse rolls and the chased becomes the chaser and it goes back and forth until they are tired.
CATS ON THE COUNTER!! This is why I dont like pot luck with coworkers.

Cat : wtf are you doing owner, can't u let me live in peace
Bob Cats are wild, and although very beautiful don't really belong in a house scarring the hell out of domesticated pets that happen to be living there.
You're right Anna. Unless a person has the experience. Hands on training and all the coursework needed. Along with all the proper permits and licenses. And a proper approved and inspected outdoor enclosure then they should not have one. And definitely yes about not having one that is scaring your domestic pets. That would be a bad situation. But I do know many wildcat owners around the U.S. and all seem to be very responsible owners. Of course there will be one here and there that allow things to go on that shouldn't or don't have the experience or training. But yes. Domestic animals should be very happy and comfortable in their own house. Just like you see mine are here in my videos. They are all very happy. Thanks.
Anna P - Agree. Sad ..
I agree. Yes they're beautiful and amazing but they are wild animals that are meant to be in the wild. They're not domesticated animals, and they're not supposed to be, period, unless injured and incapable of surviving in the wild, they are predators, not pets for selfish dicks.
@@egroegartfart no it doesn't matter all the licenses and training you have you should not have a wild Bobcat in the house with a domesticated cat you're wrong for that the domesticated cat is frightened you should separate them now
I've lost domestic cats to these wildcats and I've found the pieces of my cats that were left over, needless to say, a bobcat comes on my property I got a 20 Ga slug ready for it between its eyes
The bobcat made that The Exorcist sound?
Have you heard a mountain cat 😂 sounds like someone women being murdered... Man felines are crazy with the sounds.
your poor house cat is very stressed
This happens even with domestic cats. Some of them like their space and feel threatened even when the other cats are being playful.
Its a bobcat it has that wild mentality.
get the cat to a safer place
That bobcat is gonna ending up hurting the other cat. Only a matter of time. Too wild. Can't help it.
Because it is wild or an animal? Dogs kill eachother and humans till this day. Animals stay animals, like human who murder.
Guess they are all wild too. Just because its wild doesnt mean it is going to kill eventually. Thats mainstream thinking.
Even a cat attack humans, can they kill you? Probably not. A lion that attacks the same way? Yes because it is, i dont know... much much larger?
Davida Majako
No, it's gonna do some harm because it's WILD. Dogs and cats are *domesticated*. There's a difference. It's true that wild animals can be raised as pets and be real gentle and it's true that cats and dogs go ballistic at times but *THIS* bobcat looks like he means to hurt the cat and the cat looks like he knows it.
@@AereForst exactly. I fear for the smaller cat. if it has any sense it will hopefully leave its owner where it's clearly very distressed, and find a nice kind owner who will let it live in peace without threat of being eaten
Janis Campbell
People that put animals in this situation really don't seem to understand the kind of stress it creates for them and how unhealthy that can be.
@@AereForst I totally agree. I fostered cats and kittens for the RSPCA along with hvg my own cats and u learn a lot about cats emotions and body language. I was horrified to see the video and the way the owner found the situation entertaining though the domestic cat was clearly very distressed. Some people shouldn't be allowed to own animals
Aww he's so cute u can tell it's a sibling relationship between the cats and a very well mannered bobcat
Thank you majin. You're right. My bobcat sees my domestic animals as his siblings. Because he was raised from birth with them. That's one great thing about bobcats. If raised from birth they will accept any animal on the planet. I have friends that have hamsters their bobcat was raised with. It's so funny to see him playing with them. It's kind of ridiculous. But cool.
Your dog is broken.
Now that is funny...
I thought it was a cow
Dark GT look at all those chickens
Dark GT the dog is the wise one there. Poor dog opted out because it knows that bobcat can eat everybody in the house. The human is dumb to try to domesticate a wild animal. The house cat is gangster because it ain’t scared of anything.

Those beautiful animals look dangerous mate! Are you sure it's safe to have your dog around them? They may be tame but you can't change somethings instinct and nature.
Thank you.

Shut the fuck up mate.
@@joshuagavaghan224 very nice observation. lol
The house cat would never have allowed the bobcat behind it unless it was comfortable. The cat relaxed as soon as bobcat found a comfortable spot instead of pestering. Very neat tribe you have there.
@Anal Rampage you don't have to be mean. It's Christmas for goodness sake! Merry Christmas, Anal Rampage 🎄🎁
The house cat is Intimadated by the Bob cat , the.house cat knows its damn dangerous.
The house cat is not comfortable at all. He's scared as fuck. Even the doggys watching his ass real closely. They know this thing can do some damage. Esp to the person who's trying to domesticate this animal. Poor cat.
daddy Dingas did you bother to read the description like you were told?
youtubeyouser BULLSHIT
How long did it take until your Bobcat killed your cat .........and your dog.
Maybe no recent videos because the bobcat ate him/her.
I love the way the dog just looks at the both of them like 🤷🏾♂️ You guys are gonna be is so much trouble for jumping up on counter tops lol 😂
For that domestic cat this must be just how it feels like to have Tarzan living alongside with them - wild, untamed, semi-aggressive, and with strange habits. 😂
Seems like an uncomfortable environment for the cat.
Definitely not a fair fight with those fangs the bobcat is showing off.
Read the desc, people
They have no intention to kill each other
@doja smk uh.. I'm not in a mood to argue so nevermind
Merey Orynbekova cuz ur wrong
@doja smk exactly. It's so cruel of the owner of the domestic cat to put it through this. Poor thing was terrified
Your low IQ ass clearly doesn’t understand reality!
Just a disclaimer. My domestic cat was in no danger here. Yes, benji sounds all mean and nasty, but when he gets too rough with the cats even though they are less than half his size all they have to do is swat him or bite him and he immediately submits. He is submissive to every animal here because they were here before him. Yes he does pick on them, but he wants to play, but his play gets a little out of hand after just a few minutes so they do not put up with him a lot of times. He could hurt them if he really wanted to, but he has never ever tried hurting any of them. I do keep a close eye on things though just in case. Thank you for all the kind and funny comments.
Benji sounds more like he's whining about not having anyone to play with. It's pretty funny actually. Like a little kid.
it honestly looked like he was trolling the kitty lol
how did u get him?
It's just a matter of time. That was not a friendly stare towards the end.
He's definitely submissive now, but he may not be forever.
+Benji The Bobcat what did you do about that case of feline herpes that the bob cat has. ??
1:13 look at that smug look, a cross between a handsome devil and the phrase "what a ham"
1:14 THAT SMILE
That sound is not of this world.
RJ Lamere perfect sound for a horror movie
Listen to the sounds that a Lynx makes, horrifying.
Your house cat looks extreamly uncomfortable
Haley Folsom all cats look like that when one decides it wants to end a playing session. The other keeps trying to play until it realizes the other has had enough and then it stops. That's why they both sit down and chill at the end of the video.
@@peoples2296 exactly
@@peoples2296 my cat doesnt look like that
@@peoples2296 Bullshit, that poor cat is stressed to the max and going through Hell so that this delusional idiot can keep a Bobcat in the house.
@@jonm3131 my older cat (little boy in picture 😍) looks like that after playing with his kitten friend. He gets annoyed with her easily and wants to stop the playing
Thank you for the explanation - it gives the viewer the necessary background to be able to understand what we see. Having first read the description, I completely agree with you - the Bobcat (bless him) is indeed being a little brat (in a nice way). I have to say, he is utterly MAGNIFICENT. Too much of a handful for me!!!!
Thank you stony. I appreciate your words. Benji was such a character. And yes. Sometimes a little brat. Lol. But he was always awesome. I had to write that description because although most people understand what they are seeing the ones that don't see it as Benji wanting to kill my domestic cat or hurt him. And they think my domestic cat is stressed and living in fear. It's frustrating because those people have no idea what is going on in this video. They haven't watched my other videos where these two are cuddling or others where they are grooming each other or sleeping next to each other. Or the ones where I'm talking about the animals and that they are best friends.i think the description has helped some. But some people still are just convinced Benji is going to kill my other cat. Lol. If he was going to do that he would have don't it years ago. Thank you again and I'm really glad you enjoy my videos. I wish Benji was still here because we had so much fun making them everyday. It was so funny. It was like he knew when the camera was on just like an actor. He would turn onchia acting and comedy and just let it rip. It was always so funny.vc
Aww what a cutie! Such a big fluffy playful boi!
Great example of cat communication. The slow blink the bobcat did is also another sign he isn’t being aggressive. That slow blink along with the yawns say hey I’m not a threat or play please. Great video
Thanks Michael. You're one of the less than ten people out of the three million that have watched this that understand cat body language and communication. lol. Thank you.
Benji The Bobcat my degree is in Evolution, Ecology and Organismal Biology. My emphasis was on vertebrate behavior. Mostly the canine and mustelid families. Mink and Coyote here in Ohio. I did run into a few wild bobcats during my research assistant days at The Ohio State University. You don’t see them for long usually, maybe 5-10 seconds if you are lucky. Them and Badgers are in Ohio but rarely seen due to their nocturnal behaviors.
Looks like your domestic is the dominant cat. She obviously wasn’t afraid to put Benji in his place. I have 5 domestics myself and have one cat that the others don’t mess with.
Bobcats are cool.
Dean Welch laughing i got the girl
Dean Welch he's hungry aww
for those who think this is dangerous, it's clear they're playing and know each other, and the bobcat decided not to get smacked by the domestic cat you all seem to pitty. maybe watch and get facts before shooting off a comment. you won't, but it's a thought.
I love this video the way benji talks is to the world is amazing xx
Thank you so much Emma. I agree and he loved to talk and communicate. Bobcats are big talkers. They have one of the biggest vocabularies of alot of animals. They can make 26 different vocalizations. And every one means a different thing. It's pretty cool. Especially when you learn to understand what they are saying or asking for. It's really cool.
I think it looks like the bobcat just want to belong and be friends and is frustrated by the cat's rejection.
This is equivilant how you and your roommate argue about who gets the last beer
you've got to reconsider your priorities with your roommate
That bobcat is so impressive! Absolutely stunning. It just wants to play watch it's body language and his ears are not laid back flat so he is not in attack mode.
Now I get where they get all the sounds in horror movies.
That poor domesticated feline. They are not meant to cohabitate with a bobcat. Very stressful for both of them but the weaker one must be going bonkers with the stress hormones.
This bobcat UA-cam's just wrote my comment a trigger book. In the video he's saying b nice. Even says being mean. People are full of shit
Why are you letting that animal terrorize the domestic cat ?..what an a-hole.
This guy who posted this sh#t should be in jail for animal cruelty...
You bunch obviously didn’t read the description 🤦🏻♂️
Oh my god! Heaven forbid That Life have stressful moments!
Gtfoh.
That's a cute Bob cat... he sounds like an old lady trying to take a dump!🤣🤣🤣
Oh wow
So fascinating! I have not seen an interaction like this or heard those particular sounds from a bobcat. Thank you for sharing this. How in the world did you decide to raise a bobcat?
Thank you so much Elizabeth. Bobcats actually have 26 vocalizations they can make. I tried for years to record the sounds but it's so difficult to do because you just never know when they are going to say something. I would always just miss a sound. These were just a couple of the sounds. But they are just amazing to hear. The have happy, sad,. Mean, scared, and immitating sounds. The mean or mad sounds are so scary it will make the hair on your body stand up. It's really funny. Campers each year call 911 on average 50 times each year reporting hearing a woman screaming. Saying it sounds like a woman is being murdered. Of course the police have to always respond to the call and investigate the calls. Alot of times it's at campgrounds where it's happened many times so the cops already know it's a bobcat doing it. But it sounds exactly like a woman screaming. It's the males that make that sound when there's a female in heat. I've heard it many times and it still makes the hair on my body stand up. I heard it the first time in the middle of the night several years ago with Benji my ex and I woke up immediately hearing this blood cuddling scream. I and it kept going as I walked through the house. Sounded like it was right outside my house in the back yard. And that was because it WAS in my back yard. Lol. So I found the culprit......Benji when I went outside. When I was fully expecting to see a murder scene out there. Lol. I also see that my neighbors were outside on their back deck looking over. So I apologized and then I quickly brought him back in the house. From that point on at night I made sure to lock the doggy door so that he couldn't go outside at night and wake up the entire neighborhood.2 other neighbors said they came outside when they heard it also. Luckily nobody called the police that night. Haha. But yah I always wished I could have gotten other sounds on tape. But it was just impossible to do.thsnks again and have a. Good day. :). I forgot to answer your question. I decided to start rescuing them after I had volunteered for two years at an exotic animal sanctuary. I just loved working with the bobcats so when one came up for rescuing I decided to do it.
"Also a bobcat has never killed an animal it was raised with since birth" that's a mighty big statement and there's literally no way for you to know that as a fact.
I'm sure he means it's never been documented as happening in captivity/domestic setting
I feel for that other cat...it clearly scared, and for good reason.
@Joyce Woodruff
I also noticed there weren't anymore videos with it. Poor kitty...
Literally... favorite word of the ignorant
Richie Rich Yawning can mean very very different things depending on the animal in question. Now if you’re talking about baboons or other monkeys, yawning and smiling are signs of aggression/showing dominance. If you’re talking about dogs, they may yawn to show stress or excitement, or to say to another dog, “chill out, i’m done playing.” When a parrot yawns, it simply means it’s tired. Now to the animal in question. When cats yawn, it could mean they’re tired, obviously, or it could mean that it’s very relaxed and comfortable. A cat would never ever yawn in a stressful situation. See how this differs from dogs? Yes, yawning means, “i’m tired,” but it can also mean many other things.

This comment is so underrated
🤣🤣🤣🤣
It really is
He sounds like some shit from a horror film.
Or my grandad standing up after being sat down for a while.
Bobcats so adorable..n so respectful.. he just wants to play but knows its bigger.. that dogs like help!
“Wild” bobcat.
Next up: Sir Attenborough exploring life in my kitchen.
Is it me or is Benji smiling here? 1:13
yeah, he smiled
hahahhahahahahah i died from laughing
smug smirk on his face haa
lmao he did
Smug ass Bobcat.
Bobcats are absolutely gorgeous but holy shit, that sound.
Are they domesticable? Or are they completely wild?
Alejandroo I'm not the person to ask that, unfortunately.
They are a wild animal. They are not domesticable, but when raised with people they love people. In the wild they want nothing to do with people.
Benji The Bobcat Thanks for the help!
But do they attack people when they are still wild
+Alejandroo if they feel like they are cornered or threatened they will attack. yes. bobcats are ferocious hunters and will hunt prey 5 times their size. in the wild they avoid humans. people think they are scared but they just want nothing to do with people. attacks are rare but they do happen.
That’s fantastic, love the look he gave at 1:15
Nice to see their personal side.
Thanks Dan. There really hasn't been alot known about them up until ten or fifteen years ago because they were nearly extinct for many years since the 1700's through now. They were so heavily hunted. But since breeding programs started to reintroduce them into the wild and heavily restricted hunting was implemented their populations has really grown. They can live with humans although it's basically the same exact thing as living with a lion or tiger but just on a smaller scale but they have the exact same personalities. Instincts and reactions to things as those larger cats do. So it takes training and experience to do it. But for me I love it. They are really smart and very affectionate considering what they are. Thanks again and have a great day.
Bro you know this domestic cat feelin like Gary off that one episode of spongebob where that crazy ass thing tries to eat Gary and spongebob thinks he will be his “friend” 😂😂
Bro I hate that episode so much.
That sound like a zombie from walkin dead serie.
"Then looks at me with that shut eating grin" lol
That looks like a disaster in the making. I’m sure the bobcat understands “you need to be nice” 🤪🤪
Great description...
Amazing majestic animal.
Just a tired kitty that doesnt know when to quit playing.
Jm Fowler you got it Jim. One of the few that does get it.
@@egroegartfart When he gets hungry enough he'll eat that other cat.
@@darrellknox6435 thanks Darrell. I'll keep that in mind. I guess it's just been luck then over the last 20 years of living with bobcats that none have ever gotten hungry enough to eat my domestic cats right? Lol.
looks like he needs to stop picking on cats smaller than him. makes life for your kitty kind of tough. probably a real anxiety problem for your domestic.
ya my dog barks at my cat every time she lies around peacefully or when she jumps on couches, or when shes trying to come close to people hes with xD he never hurts anyone though, the cat tears my pants and bites my leg and meows all day for no good reason, the dog looks cuter than any human baby.
yeah really, that poor cat probably wonders everyday if today is the day it dies
Sundays Comrad fucking idiots, I swear...
Bobkitty wants to just sit beside the normal kitty. How is that picking on someone?
Plus the bobcat even gets scared when the kitty hisses.
Sundays Comrad hilarious!!!! And true! Poor freakin kitty!
Interesting vocalizations. I saw nothing but playful calm. The vocalizations sound creepy but the body language says otherwise. Your bobcat is beautiful!
That other cat is having nothing to do with that Bob. Lol
Your domestic is really stressed out. Your bobcat is a bully. Dugh.
Yeah the domestic cat really seems stressed out by all this.
Kvothe: 99% of the people on here have tried to bring that to his asshole's attention, but he purposefully plays the "babe in the woods" routine like "ohhhhhh, it's no big deal." the scary thing about it is, people who like to torture animals have REALLY REALLY darker things in their mind, usually involving humans....... I have a feeling he is one of those (and yeah dude, I know you will delete my comment, b/c you don't want to hear the truth..... that's another pussy assed move)
He was not stressed out. He simply didn't want to play anymore. You see the bobcat stop and lay down when he realizes the cat doesn't want to play anymore and they slept right there next to each other. They were best friends.
Found another irrelevant comment.
If this were a dog instead of a bobcat, the behavior would be considered normal. My dog messes with my cats as play and eventually the cat makes it known it does not want to play anymore. If the cat were really overwhelmed it would leave the situation or fight.
During the enormous number of years I spent in the field of animal training and medical care and accumulating invaluable experience with a wide variety of critters, I saw many examples of unusual cross-species relationships in which one of the animals involved was disproportionately physically superior to the other. And/or in which one was wild and the other domestic. And/or in which one would have normally been classified as "prey" to the other. These relationships were friendly and even loving..... until they weren't. Every pairing of animals that would not under normal/natural biological conditions occur but which has been arranged by humans *always always always* places the lesser one at serious risk. I've personally been familiar with at least a dozen of such pairings that lasted peacefully for as long as five years (and one that lasted for over eight) - but terminated in one causing the death of the other. When these relationships do not result in death or serious injuries, *please* believe that is a rare situation - and I beg you to provide your animals with companions who are appropriate and safe for them and spare yourselves a potential tragedy! While we tend to view these uncommon relationships as being something of beauty and as being enjoyable to watch, the fact is that they are dangerous for the animals involved - and often to family members who may find it necessary to intervene in an attack. I wish I could adequately explain how traumatic these situations can be for everyone involved. Trust me, you do *not* want to see these things happen - especially to your own pets....
Okay! Explained that way, you make a legitimate counter-point. Thank you, Ms. Brown, for the further information.
the house cat was scared shitless!
Not scared at all.
@@egroegartfart youre in fucking denial. the minute you started petting the bobcat and the cat saw you as a barrier he GOT THE FUCK OUT OF THERE... the whole video is the bobcat chasing the cat and the cat hissing at it.... its not rocket science... RIP IN YOUR CAT... your dog might have a chance
@@youtubevideos3963 bro do you even have a cat? Like my cat hisses at my 15lbs 10 year old dog, if she doesnt wanna play she doesnt wanna play. she'll hiss a me just for playing a little to long. And guess what my dog will do? He will lie down and cry at her and she'll turn her back and go to sleep. Legit what these two did. Which is why i was surprised at the amount of comments here making outrageous claims that this bob was being aggressive. I dont think the lot of you owned many pets.
Dude the cats fine it held it’s grown if it was terrified it would have never turn its back to it, it would have hissed and attacked it’s called fight or flight the cat knew he was ok it was never in danger yes the bobcat could kill the cat but then agian so can the dog, you all just soft💯
@@youtubevideos3963 I wish I could punch you. Stupid prick.
ok, you got me there - awesome explanation. beautiful cat!
Thanks fazor. Yes. He had a stroke at birth and I rescued him and agreed to provide a home for him for the rest of his life because he could not be in the wild. I have worked with alot of bobcats over the years and I've never seen one happier than him. He was such an amazing little guy.
