Need ID: Pet,Feral or Bobcat ?

[Rat187]

Saw it hunting around the property, today my dog spotted it as is sat and observed the show. Otto was on a leash thankfully. Never got to see the tail

 

[knoxy]

Not a bobcat.

 

[BlacknRed]

Agreed. Certainly not a bob

 

[rudiewhitebwoy]

Not a Bobcat

 

[Rat187]

Ok not a Bob cat....I won't have to move

Owl

Post a clearer picture with about 90% less obstructions.

 

[MaxStravinsky]

Possibly a house cat, but it's not really clear enough to tell for sure.

 

[ccm75]

Canadian Lynx. Obviously.
Meow....

Schoot it and take a close-up. Jack.

Looks like a house cat. Maine coon to be specific. These are Maine coons

 

[Rat187]

Looked like the above suspect, no collar though...not sure about a tail yet

Looks just like the one on the right.

You found an escaped Maine coon house cat lol

 

[PL-52]

Yup looks like an older Maine Coon Cat. Mine is around 11ish

 

[Romokid]

Was just gonna say Maine Coon cat. We just put our 18 year old down 2 months ago. Being strictly an indoor cat kept him alive this long.

 

[RIFLEMAN1000]

Cat , probably feral .

 

[Boghog1]

Bigfoot

Samsquampsh!

Mystery solved: caught the beast stalking my dog who's on a tether. On a hunch walked thru the woods to ask my neighbor if they had seen a strange cat hunting in the area ? Yup: $2000 worth of Maine Coon cat.

The vicious little bastard went full retard on me when I approached him. He should put a dent in the mice and chipmunk population that is if the 'yotes' don't get him first.

 

[HorizontalHunter]

Looks like a red-tailed hawk to me.

Bob

Not a Bobcat. Possibly a Stevecat. I'd vote housecat only b/c I don't think a feral cat would sit and watch you like that.

Well he put on an impressive threat display...Not a house cat, out all day in the woods. Theres a critter Ho Chi Minh trail behind my property, tons of deer and yotes are always hungry. I wouldn't risk a 2 grand cat but not my money.

Got one deep in my woods on camera a while back.

Full disclosure - I have (4) cats, and one is on my stomach, purring, as I type this.
