I lived in Tucson area for 5 years before relocating here to the Chicagoland area. The first year there I stayed at a home that my sister had and was treated to almost daily visits by a pair of Bobcats. They were siblings and they were born right there at the house and have stayed there in the area ever since. This is the male. He was not phased by me sitting on the porch taking his picture. His sister was shy and would run off every time I went outside. James Newman

Last May 20, 2015, I was surprised by a visitor who lingered for quite a time, first napping then stretching before sitting up and eventually heading for the neighbor's fountain. There was nothing in the yard but cool grass and quiet. In my 12 years in Rancho Resort I have never had such a visitor inside my patio wall. Doug Murray.

The bobcat keeps a lookout for the other bobcat from the top of a saguaro on a ridge near Kolb Rd. and Sunrise Drive Monday, December 14, 2009. The bobcat came halfway down the cactus only to be chased back up by another bobcat. Bobcats are territorial and solitary, according to Mark Hart, a spokesman for Arizona Fish and Game Department. Bobcats are capable of climbing saguaros but do not do it routinely, only in extreme situations. The cat will come down when he feels that it's safe. Photo by Jill Torrance/Arizona Daily Star.

She described the scene: "Just after sunrise, our black lab, Rory, let us know he had chased something up the small tree near our back patio door. When we looked up into the tree, we could see a bobcat kitten laying stretched out on an upper branch, trying to be invisible. I got my camera and was looking up again, attempting to capture the young bobcat in a photo, but couldn't see him very well so high up. To my great surprise, still looking through the lens as I moved my camera back down, right there inches in front of me was a second bobcat kitten! We just stared at each other for 5-10 minutes as I quietly asked him where his mama was! Later that morning both kittens scaled the wall of our backyard to return to their den."
