I'm new to trapping, only caught one bobcat in 2016 and 2017. However, I did get some good pictures of cats I wanted to share with you. I have 15 cameras on my 183 farm. Don't have any idea how many cats frequent the farm but they do show up now and then. These are from 2017 and I did get a picture of a cat with a squirrel in 2016 also.

Notice the orange flag on the left side of the cat with squirrel. I set a trap there later and caught a cat, probably this one.

I thought the one with kittens was pretty neat. I've only seen kittens one time and that was in Nebraska years ago.

This is the only one I caught in 2017. I've also been trying to thin the coons on my farm to help the turkeys.

Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Author Trapper, I don't know about the den. I also got a picture of a cat with one kitten (might have been another one out of the picture)and that was 1/2 mile from the picture with two kittens.

These were taken with a trail camera. I have 15 cameras on my 183 acre farm. I really enjoy seeing the wildlife activity through the summer and most of the fall. I usually pull them in January.

I think we have a few cats on the farm. Not many coyotes and I'm glad. Lots of coons. I've taken 91 off the farm in two years and I'm a total rookie.

Got a picture of this big boy in September



Caught what I believe to be him in early January, was my biggest Tom, 25lbs



Had this picture of a female early fall



Took her late December, my biggest female, she was 20lbs



I love running game cams, it can really help you pick location and find cats IF you pay attention. Ended up with 7 cats this past year, my best year to date, 5 of them were due to using cameras so I knew exactly where they were.

Preperation is key, and failing to prepare is preparing to fail laugh

Endangered specie according to the state of NJ. We have more cats than foxes in my trapping area
