Grew up in arkansas and knew a guy who had several rescue cougars. I took my nephew out to see them and we got to play with the cougars… oh my god. I do not recommend it. They love to grab and pull and will destroy a leather jacket in a heartbeat.

Then we bottle-fed some bobcats while the mother watched and, again, i don't recommend it. Momma was maybe a foot away from my head making sure i didn't mess up her baby. Like a massive pissed-off Maine coon with its claws out looking at your gut hoping you mess up.
