Default What do ya think? Bobcats??

We got a picture of these bobcats we think. They are definetly not regular cats. They are about twice, or more the size of a regular cat. It looks like they should weigh 15-20 pounds just guessing by there size. maybe a little more. There is one back further in the right size of the photo , and when zoomed in you can see a bob tail, and the same coloring as the one up close. They are both really thick like a bob cat too. It looks to me like 2 younger bobcats. What do you guys think? I compared some pictures of different bobcats on the internet some look like it some don't.

You want to see what a Bobcat looks like? Check out the one who has decided to make the patio area outside my front door his personal relaxation spot:

Yea I think they are bobcats myself after browsing through tons of pics on the internet. They have the same markings, and colors. It is way thicker than a regular cat, and about 2 to 3 times the size. It has big paws, and a bob tail. We have heard reports of people seeing them crossing the roads by our house all the time, but never seen one ourself. This is back in the woods a mile away from anything where these pics were taken. So they might hang out back in that area.
