Advisory

A Bobcat was spotted early this morning on N 5th St. Follow the link for safety tips.

Scare off bobcats that do not
run away immediately by making
loud noises and waving
your arms. Bobcats rarely attack
people.

• Chase off a bobcat invading
private property by spraying it
with a garden hose.

• Keep domestic animals
(chickens, rabbits, rodents,
etc..) in secured enclosures
with sturdy roofs.

• Keep pets confined to securely
fenced areas. Walk dogs on a
leash and keep cats indoors.

• Feed pets inside and remove
uneaten pet food between
feedings.

• Build sturdy fencing to discourage
bobcats. But, keep in mind
that they are able to climb
trees and jump or climb over
some fencing.

• If you observe a bobcat in the
wild, stop and allow it to escape
