'[I] believed it to be a regular cat': Woman finds a floofy kitten in need of help after coming back from a walk, she discovers it's actually a baby bobcat missing its mom

We had a stuffed lion toy when we were kids. We loved that thing. We cuddled it every night and took it with us everywhere for a few years. Ever since then, it's been our dream to cuddle with a real big cat. Imagine lion snuggles. Or lounging with a tiger while soaking up some sun. It sounds like heaven, right? Well, it's not pawssible. Big cats are not meant to be pets, and we would never advise you to get anywhere near one unless you were under the supervision of a purrfessional. Yes, even baby ones.

No matter how cute, how tiny, and how floofy they are, they are not friends. They are friend-shaped, but don't be deceived by their cuteness, they are wild animals. So, we have to give the woman in this post a big round of appaws. She found a floofy kitten in need of help on her stairs after coming back from a walk, and after discovering it was a baby bobcat, she called wildlife services. We would not have been so strong.

It's all fun and games until your 6-month-old kitten destroys your entire bedroom because it needs to exercise its hunting instinct. And imagine how much food you would have to feed it. We're not sure we could financially afford to have a bobcat as a pet.

Okay, maybe we wouldn't keep it for months, but a few days wouldn't hurt anyone, right? No. No. Wild animals are not pets. Don't succumb to the floofiness. Just take it away, already. Please, before we change our minds. We're not strong enough to keep saying no!
