Same here.

Years ago I was on stand one afternoon when a big tom bobcat came down the deer trail I was set up on after I watched him cross a logging road.
I drew on him at about 18 steps and was going back and forth in my head as to if I really wanted to take him when he stopped and looked back....then slowly turned around and went back to the logging road I first saw him step out onto. Immediately three small kittens stepped out and walked up to him followed by mama bobcat.
Proceeded to watch them play (read torment) with their dad for almost an hour before the whole group slinked back into the brush.
Still one of the greatest sights I have ever witnessed in the woods after all these years.
