“She’s healing well from the surgeries and I think she’s ready to go.”
Bobbi suffered serious injuries to her paw and teeth after getting caught in a leg-hold trap for at least two weeks in mid- January.
The bobcat underwent three surgeries and had four toes amputated on her left paw, but her dewclaw remains. “She’s doing wonderful,” said biologist Malenie Whalen, Director of wildlife care and services at CWRC. “She’s going to the Cochrane Ecological Institute. They have a 4-acre enclosure that we’ll be able to put her in and monitor her, and see if she can be release to the wild,” said Whalen “If not, she’ll have to be placed into a facility.”Whalen said there are at least three documented bobcats living in the Calgary area with the use of three legs who are doing quite well.
Bobbi is somewhat of a celebrity on her home turf of Lake Chaparral. She has her own Facebook page dedicated to Bobbi sightings.When the cat was hurt there was an outcry from residents. Her absence is being felt in the neighborhood in more ways than one.
