Wild Cats In Southern Florida
An attorney at law David C Garner says that he knows of no law that makes it illegal to feed feral or stray cats in Florida.
Wild cats in southern florida. These animals are not picky. In my opinion he is absolutely correct. Primarily found in southwestern Canada the western US and almost all of Mexico and Central and South America.
The bobcat still has a wide distribution on the USA despite the expanding activities of people. Another aspect of our mission is to provide information to the public on the importance of fixing their animals and to provide information on trapping and low-cost spayneuter programs. We feed and care for these cats in their colonies and at their colony locations.

If the woods and parks are full of squirrels chipmunks and birds then feral cats can survive there. The bobcat is a medium sized wild cat. There is no solid evidence that they are in Florida but supposedly there was a road kill found in 1961.
Wild cats were domesticated about. Small numbers found in pockets of several other state including Florida where they are known as the Florida panther and Nebraska as well as parts of central Canada. Black marks the sides of the muzzle and top of the tail.
Cats are not released back to their colonies until we are absolutely sure they are ready to resume their lives as normal. All sorts of wildlife. Cats at FSC Lakeland Florida.
