About two weeks ago, while driving through the Air Force Academy, my wife suddenly pulled over, back up and rolled my window down, leaving me looking eyeball to eyeball with a bobcat at about 20 feet! I don't know which thought bothered me more - that I completely missed seeing him at first but she didn't, being that close to something like that, or the fact that he didn't seem impressed with me at all. :?
It's only the second time I've gotten that close to one of them in years, but they do not "meeow". Of course, neither does our male Manx at home. If he gets perturbed enough, he just yowls at me until I do what he wants - food is usually involved.
