In Orlando, Florida, we have a true cuteness alert. On Thursday, the Orlando Fire Department announced their latest rescue; a Good Samaritan dropped off a bobcat kitten the man believed was a cheetah cub. He said he found the kitten in the area of Station 7 on Goldwyn Avenue and didn’t know what to do with it.
According to the Facebook page of the Orlando Fire Department,
“Crews were working on finding it a home and potentially contacting Orange County Animal Services when they started Googling ‘baby cheetah’ and realized the kitten had bobcat similarities.”

The kitten has been transferred to Back to Nature Wildlife Refuge and Education Center where the approximately two-week-old female will be cared for and eventually released back into the wild. The organization will do everything they can to avoid the kitten from imprinting on humans. When old enough, she will be placed with at least one other bobcat until she is old enough to be released.
Bobcats are protected and are not legal to keep as pets.
Good luck little one.
