Bobcat Junkies

Bobkitty was just throwing down her first cheek rub when she spotted the flashing cam trap.

So, of course, she had to check it out.

And, deciding it was harmless, went back to enjoying the catnip oil I'd dabbed on the moss fern.

For 3 more minutes.

5 days later, Bobkitty came back and left this photo:

For those interested, the moss fern is Selaginella bigelovii, and the cool coffee fern on the left is Pellaea andromedifolia. The bob-tailed cat, of course, is a female Lynx rufus.

  1. Very cute. I imagine the cat was very please that you put that on the soft moss, instead of a rock!

  4. Very nice photos and the Bigelow's spike moss I just recently wrote about in my Biological Soils Crust piece last week or so. Wrote another one on the Swedish version of Soil Crusts.

    Very nice photos again, thanks for sharing this

  6. "Capture" of the very best kind! and this kitty has probably, through your sharing, captured more than a few hearts.
