Wow, he's a lucky man to be here to talk about it. Thank goodness a cool head prevailed and he knew what to do.
It's always sad to see an animal suffer with rabies, maybe this was the most humane way for him to pass on and not spread the disease any further.  Thanks for the update ((((((((((((((((((PrettyPetunia)))))))))))))))) Hugssss J |

WOW! Good thing he's had some experience! Like they said, it could have been a child that couldn't defend him/herself!
He really doesn't look all that worse for wear. Good for him! __________________ Psalm 119:105 Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. |

It's my impression that bobcats are very shy of humans and almost never encountered. Too bad this one had rabies. That is probably the reason for the attack. I'd actually love to see one in the wild, but would keep my distance!

I guess the neighbor who helped the man who was bitten, also had to undergo rabies treatment because they were concerned he might've been in contact with the blood or saliva.

AWWWWW! Poor thing! He sure looks skinny, doesn't he? He's certainly no "kitty, kitty", though!! Now, HE looks worse for ware! Wonder if he'd suffered long?

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
