I need help. I have a large bob cat that needs mounted but up here in IL there is no one who has done them enough to make a good mount. I would be willing to travel down Ky or tenn. I look on here and couldn't find any post on who would be good for doing it. If there is a post on here on some one whose does that point me to it. Thanks

eww boy. Cats are one of the toughest critters to mount. I dont know why but you rarely see a decent one. The faces usually take on some sort of weird morphing. Maybe thats why it's tough to find a taxidermist with enough confidence to take one on.

Have you takin a look at Taxidermy.net? They have an extensive list of taxidermists broken down state by state.
Might be worth a peek.

Can't help with this request.
Anyone remember the pic of a Bobcat mount that Ed posted years ago?

Was that the goofy lookin one or am I thinking of a different one? Someone posted one that was the joke for days.
