THERE GOES THE NEIGHBORHOOD!

Here’s a family that is not only unfazed by the ongoing mortgage crisis, they’ve actually benefited from it!

In the upscale Tuscany Hills neighborhood in the foothills of Lake Elsinore, California, a family of bobcats moved has into an empty luxury house that was foreclosed on and made themselves right at home. The family, which consists of at least two adults and three bobcat kittens, appears to be enjoying their new digs… there’s even a koi pond in the backyard for tasty snacks. Yum! And best of all, the neighbors don’t seem to mind the new tenants, so the bobcats are safe from overzealous, gun-totin’ humans that might have other ideas.

Animal experts predict the bobcats will move on when the kittens are big enough to travel, but right now, the family has no immediate plans to leave... and, hey, can you blame them? Talk about pouncing on a good deal!

I wonder if they’ve figured out how to call Domino’s yet?

Aren't they booooootiful. I do hope humans don't interfere with them or kill them. Humans are worse predators than we cats, big and small. They kill the cowardly way - from a distance.

Oh wow, those bobcats have found a most interesting place to live! Bobcats are so beautiful. I think they would make excellent neighbors.

Purrs and snuggles from Marilyn!
