Sometimes, miracles happen.
Most here know I have a couple of hounds and we run lions when we can find them, but I run a lot of bobcats when I can't find a lion track. Bobcats are far more difficult to tree, but these dogs were bred and born to run, so I run them.
The first bobcat my dogs ever caught on their own was a very heavy furred female. Didn't know what it was in the tree. You can't tell with a bobcat.


Decided to have it mounted, since it was my dogs' first. Gave it to a guy a buddy recommended, right before Christmas. He said if I paid in advance, he'd cut me a deal. I did. And then nothing but empty promises for years. I'd given up. Stopped bothering him. 2 weeks ago he messages me on Messenger and says it is done. 5 years after I gave it to him. It isn't exactly what I wanted, but I have it.
I've had a run of trusting taxidermists I shouldn't have that was epic. 5 to be exact. At least one eventually followed through, and he didn't ask for any more money.
