Bobcats are just cats.

Woman unwittingly rescues injured bobcat - Yahoo! News

This story...is ridiculous! Check this quote from the vet:

Veterinarian Andy Duke said the women were "extremely lucky" that the bobcat, which had a broken paw, did not panic and injure them.

They were in "a lot of danger," Duke said.

Ok. An eleven-pound bobcat kitten that has been lying on the road, probably starving, is not going to put up a fight. An eleven-pound bobcat is the size of an average house cat, which any cat owner knows could be just as "potentially dangerous" as handling a bobcat, especially if the cat is hurt.

Then comes the psychic bobcat mind-meld from the rescuing lady:

Eldred believes the bobcat didn't harm them because it sensed they were trying to help.

It sensed? Oh dear. It was probably really HUNGRY because it couldn't hunt with a broken paw. Hunger will make any living thing weak and unable to move.

One of our cats just scratched my husband and drew blood. See? All cats are potentially dangerous.
