I just shot my first ever bobcat. Want to get it mounted, but have never had anything stuffed or mounted before. Is anyone willing to share pictures of their mounts so I can give some ideas to the taxidermist? Thanks in advance!

![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2018/12/full-25921-171406-195_wildcat.jpg) Sorry....couldn't help myself.... There have been several nice ones posted here if you want to use the search tool... Here are a couple... heres one....Another....One more....Go to search on the top tool bar....select taxidermy.....type bobcat in the search box......you can change the date ranges as necessary...

Haha. Yeah, this is more of a “what not to do”.... thanks I have seen those that you linked. Was curious if anyone else hasn’t posted a pic of theirs. Just shot it last night and haven’t had much time to search the internet for other ideas. But I hadn’t thought of changing the date ranges to get more results. Will try that. Thanks!

I've got this one resting on a beam in the great room. Done by Jerry Huffaker in Abilene. Check out his work...he's a real talent. Mark ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/DsROjhom.jpg)

Is anyone willing to share pictures of their mounts so I can give some ideas to the taxidermist? Thanks in advance! When you find out what it costs to mount a cat you may change your mind. Not worth it to me.

First order of business is finding a good bobcat taxidermist! The previous recommendations of Huffaker would be my first choice from pics I've seen.

Haven't had it in years but never spit any out. I am a sucker for happy endings and strapped cowboys.
