Thank you

I guess I never realized that Exotics react to cat nip the same way as domestics.

I will have to bring some for Carmelo to enjoy. You should see a cougar on catnip

Do you feel like kitties seek you out? It seems like little Baxter was sitting under your car for a reason

Yes I do. My mom was a huge cat lover and we always had cats. My mom passed away 10 years ago, but I feel her spirit is still here, telling all the cats who need a home or just need something to eat, to "stop by that house ove there". He will love you and feed you I have a number of people around here who have cats, but just let them run free. They all come here for a snack and of course, I give it to them So, my mom gave me this gift of love for cats and all animals. I just wish she was still here, to be able to be see our bobcats and cougar. That is something she would have loved very much

Carmelo is just a great big handsome boy but then all your babies are

I am sure your mom is looking down and watching you caring for all those beautiful kits and she is very, very proud of you

Awe Look at all those bellys!!! Just right for a good rub! That catnip mat sure does get good use. Very smart investment on that. Baxter sure does look like he's very happy to be with you guys! (looks like he conquered that box too!) Thanks for all the great new pics!

As always gorgeous pictures!! You need to put some up of you and your wife interacting with everyone! Espeically Carmelo! He is so beautiful!!! BUT my new love is Tommy Boy... that belly is to die for!

Carmelo hasn't knocked me down yet, but when I lay down on the ground, he lies next to me and begins grooming me. But I have to tell you, that tongue hurts!! It is so rough, that I can only take a couple licks in one spot. He loves to groom my head, but he will lick me bald if I let him groom me in one spot I just love that big boy to pieces. He will put his paws around me and purr his heart out. Since the ground is covered with snow, it is to cold to lay there that long. But when it warms up, I can't wait to lie down in the shade and take a nice cat nap with him

Since my wife and I work a lot of opposite shifts, it is hard for me to get some pictures like this. But I will try

I envy you. I truly do. One of my fondest wishes is to work with exotic and/or large cats. They are so beautiful.

They never fail to delight, John. Thanks for the fix.

Oh my these latest pictures are just gorgeous!

Monday, I spent the day with Carmelo and all my other big cat friends. I took a few more good pictures. However, I just took some real adorable ones of Nakoma. Can't wait to post them. He is so cute

Me biased? Not at all I don't have the time at the moment to upload the pictures, but I will try a little later. The ones I took of Nakoma will have you saying...awwww. When I see him like this, it makes me feel so good. I know how his life was before we rescued him. With these pictures, you will know he is one happy relaxed bobcat boy

I will wait patiently for them and then goo- and gah at the screen probably! Like the crazy cat lady I am becoming!

I feel bad that Carmelo is not with you, he is just the cutest sweetest looking baby. It's sad and I can't imagine how you miss him.
Cinnamon looks like my Cammie all that hair

I had a little time before work, so here are a few more pictures
Very sleepy Boris.

Awww, sleepy Lil Roar.

Say hello to Shadrock cougar. This is the first time I took pictures of him

He is a bit over weight. Now that the warm weather should be arriving, we will try to get him to drop a few pounds.

My boy, Carmelo

Getting ready to stand up and give me a hug.


Give him a big kiss

Ok, here are those cute pictures of Nakoma I promised
Time to sun myself

This sun sure feels good on my belly. Time for a belly tan


Hey, can't a bobcat even get a tan around here with out someone taking all these pictures

Awwwwwwww they are are gorgeous as you promised!!! I LOVE the look on his face - he is in pure ecstasy

They are such amazing creatures - they blow me away with their beauty, they really do. Carmelo is such a handsome boy...

Aww... Nakoma is so fluffy! Does he let you give him tummy rubs or is he a belly tease?
