Petunia,

The bobcat I saw in our backyard, the first year we moved here, was about three-feet tall.

On a lighter note, when I lived in Florida, one of the women who was an important source of information for one of the projects I worked on, told me this story. She lived out in the country, and she saw this tall cat hanging around her house.

The tall cat came into her kitchen one day, and she fed him some food. Everything was fine, until she closed the outside door, and the tall cat went bezerk.

Many of you have probably already figured out the tall cat was a bobcat, and when she closed the door he felt trapped, and his wildness emerged.

She opened the door, and he left, without anybody getting hurt.
