Just curious as to how big the average cat is, both in weight and in length.

3ft 20#

Thanks. I weighed a male yesterday and I thought it would be heavier. Eighteen pounds and thirty inches from nose to base of tail.

Caught em 14 to 30#

30 pounder is 40" from nose to base of tail tanned.

I would guess your Aroostook Co. 'cat is a young-of-the-year tom. That is about what a young one here will weigh.

I've caught 3 females that weighed 17, 18 ,18. I've caught one male that was 28#. Don't remember the lengths.

Big toms out in western Oregon will go around 25 Lbs or so. Females around 16-18 lbs.

I have caught them anywhere from 8 pounds (yes, 8) to low 40's. I think we have bigger than normal cats here but they are butt ugly.

i'm 6-2,200--picture don't do it justice.messed with quite a few and this one was just bigger than all of em.had horse shoulders and hips.

Grown toms 31-33" tip of nose to base of tail, 25 to 33 lbs.

Didn’t weigh this cat, and I kick myself for it now. but I know there’s not a bobcat or a lynx form big enough for it, taxidermist said we’re gonna have to cut one in half and lengthen it by a couple 3-4 inches and cut the head in half and widen it. Dnr officer that tagged it said it’s the biggest cat he’s seen in 14 years and 3 different states. Taxidermist said the same thing.

I’m 6’1” for reference, I know I can swing a 30-35 pound dog in the truck with one arm no problem, this was a two handed operation for sure

There is a large variation in size here.

Is that measurement on the carcass? I would assume so. 31-33” is very small for a stretched and dried bobcat.

Last one I killed in Maine was about 32, a Grand L:ake Stream 'cat.

Now I am just posting kitty pictures for fun.

never have too many cat pics to look at.

Wow you guys have some big cats up there

Most of the toms here weigh over 20. I've had two that weighted 25 and this is one of them. He must have been a fighter as both ears were pretty much chewed off.
