(Felis rufus) The cat is named for its tail which appears to be bobbed. They hunt in stealth fashion and will deliver a deathblow with a leaping pounce that can cover 10 feet. The bobcats in our care have lots of personality and are full of fun antics. What does the Bobcat eat? Bobcats are carnivores. They eat rabbits, mice, squirrels, chipmunks, birds and other small game. In the winter when other prey is scarce, the males will even hunt deer, or if near human habitations, sheep, poultry and young pigs. Bobcats will cache large kills.
