Taking deposites now

Breeders of hand raised pet Canadian Lynx and Bobcat kittens.

Bonding with a pet Bobcat or Lynx kitten must begin at birth and continue for the entire life of your pet Bobcat or Lynx.

 As anyone who has been OWNED by a Bobcat, Lynx or any other exotic cat can tell you.  Living with, raising training and breeding Bobcats or Lynx becomes your life.  At kickapoo Bobcat and Lynx we are always growing, seeking and learning new and better ways to enhance the lives of our Bobcats and Lynx.
 
Now USDA licensed, Kickapoo Bobcat and Lynx is striving to be a leader in the pet Bobcat and Lynx industry.  Our habitats for our breeding cats give them room to lie in the sun, Lounge in the shade, hide from the neighbors and sit high and tall to observe the goings on at the farm.
 
Did you know Bobcats like tennis balls?  They also like to play catch.  We provide each of our Bobcats and Lynx with a wading pool for splashing around (and fishing) every warm afternoon.  We leave the pools for only 1/2 hour in each pen as Bobcats and Lynx like to defecate in water.  Which brings up a good side note.  When constructing a habitat for a Bobcat or Lynx, it is a good idea to mount a water dish too high for them to urinate or defecate in.
 
Our Bobcat and Lynx feeding program (diet) now includes 70% whole prey. Most of it grown here, the balance from various organic farms.  We have found that our Bobcat and Lynx breeders thrive on this diet.  Which makes sense because that's what Bobcat and Lynx hunt for in the wild.
 
Bobcat kittens have started arriving for 2010 and will be available for several weeks.  We are expecting a litter of Canadian Lynx late in May. We are increasing our Canadian Lynx bloodlines by bringing in a New kitten.  We are also expanding to include a Siberian Lynx kitten to our cat family.
 
In addition to the cats, our exotics now include Wolf-hybred puppies, Peacocks, Pheasants, ducks, chickens, goats, sheep, a miniature donkey and rabbits of every size shape and color.  All of these animals give the Bobcats and Lynx lots of things to watch throughout the days.
 

Should exotic cats be legal?  Absolutely!

 
The current lobby to outlaw people's exotic pets is fueled by misconceptions and special interests.

  The truth is that banning exotic animals results in pets being seized from their loving owners. Sometimes these animals are destroyed; the more fortunate are placed in sanctuaries to live out their lives in cages, causing a huge strain on the nations' limited sanctuary space. How would you feel if your family pet was outlawed?


Check Your Local Laws

  There are so many things you need to learn before owning a bobcat or lynx.  First you must know, if it is legal in your state to own one. State and county regulations are posted on the FCF (Feline Conservation Federation) website, at www.felineconservation.org under the legislative information hyperlink.

Once you have discovered what if any permits or licenses you will need,  the next step in your plan should be to find out if there are any legal requirements regarding caging in your area. Some areas have regulations specifying what materials your enclosure must be constructed of, what type of flooring, minimum dimensions, etc. so check the laws before you build.

If you plan to become a USDA licensed, you will have to meet the Animal Welfare Act caging standards which include a 6' perimeter fence around the primary enclosure (also required by some local laws).
