Got any photos?

Mike Billington on here has some of the best cat mounts I have ever seen.
You are wise to ask specifically for a cat guy as they are hard to get right and easy to get wrong.
I learned long ago you can't reason someone out of something they don't reason themselves into.

I dropped off a Pronghorn @ Brosigs Western Taxidermy in Midland and he had a few beautiful cats in the show room. Mike Billington has posted some great looking photos as well though. I was going to make the drive to Mike until I found Brosigs which is ~4 hours closer to me.
Post pictures!

I'm not sure because I've never gotten a cat mount. I'm preaching to the choir when I say be very careful who you go to. I swear maybe 1 out of 10 cat mounts I ever see actually look normal.

I had two cats done at Double D in Rockwall, he does great work on cats and pretty good pricing. When I got my first bobcat I actually went to look at previous work he had done before bringing the cat in. He had three finished ones there and all had the proper face detail

For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

Mike Billington on here has some of the best cat mounts I have ever seen. X2! If I ever get a Mountain Lion he will be the man to get the job. Don't care how far I have to drive to get it to him either.

Deer Creek in Lott, TX does awesome cats. It would be worth your drive.
