[QUOTE=sharoni;1008122]My husband and I live in Lauren Villas in The Village of Charlotte. This morning between 6-6:30 he let one of our dogs and cat out into the yard from the lanai. ......He ran out to to find the cat cowering under a chair and the dog barking at something in the yard. It was a bobcat. /QUOTE]

That must have been quite a shock, to see a bobcat! People have also seen coyotes on villa walls.
Thanks for posting as many people feel secure in villas and aren't aware that there are hazards.
As Raynan said, pets should be supervised - there are also eagles and hawks that will pick up a cat or a small dog.
