July 18, 2017

On July 18, 2017, a mother bobcat was struck and killed in the 33803 zip code area of Lakeland, FL. People who work in this area, sent photos of the 2 pound, orphaned baby on July 21 to us and we have searched the area and set up humane traps to try and capture the kitten.

He isn’t old enough to survive on his own and needs several months of rehab before he can be safely returned to the wild.

If you see this kitten, please snap a photo with your phone and text it to: 813 493-4564

Please do not touch the kitten! If you are bitten he will be killed and tested for rabies by the CDC.

To learn more about this baby’s story go to https://bigcatrescue.org/bobcat-kitten-rescue-attempt/

If seen, contact:  Big Cat Rescue 12802 Easy St Tampa, FL 33625 Cat@BigCatRescue.org

If you live in the 33803 area, would you print out and distribute this flier please: Have You Seen Me

Update

Carole made multiple trips out there.  She scoured the area but could not find the cat.  She made and distributed flyers.  It was heartbreaking to have not found him.  We have to hope for the best for the little guy.

Clover Bobcat on the left and Lucky Bobcat on the right are cozy under the Coolaroo hammock, but they've been spied snuggled up on it too. These guys are here for rehab and release back to the wild, where they belong.
