Bobcat Abandoned at the Sanctuary Gate

Moses Bobcat was abandoned here at Big Cat Rescue with no note and no one to tell us what his story was. He was approximately four weeks old and near death when his carrier was discovered just inside the front gates in May of 2001. He knew how to nurse from a bottle which is something that he would have been taught over a two to three-day period. Knowing that we assume that he was someone's failed attempt at having him for a pet.

Within a short period of time, with a proper diet and antibiotics, he was doing well enough to play with his friend Trick E., the Amurian Leopard Cat. Moses grew quickly and soon became too big a playmate for Trick E. though.

Moses now lives with his mate Bailey. They are both Native Florida Bobcats and are very difficult to tell apart. The key is to look at their noses! Bailey has a beautiful pink nose and Moses has a pink nose that has black speckles on it, so it tends to look darker. Moses has a very unique coloring that is reddish brown and white markings with blue eyes.
