Friend shot a cougar and wants to know who can process it .picture added.

My ex work partner Christine shot a cougar and wants to know where to get it processed. Any suggestions? I'll see if she will let me post a picture. She's a member here, but still out hunting.
Help me out guys...

[vandeman17]

where is she located?

[Igottanewknee]

Right now, I think near Rimrock. But is from Yelm area.

I never killed one but the guys I know who have just take the back straps and most of the big muscle groups off of the hind quarters and leave the rest. Most processors usually have a minimum so unless its a monster you'd probably be paying a ton for not a lot of meat.

[Igottanewknee]

Kinda what I was thinking. Just putting out feelers... Again, any and all suggestions appreciated.

Tell them thanks for ridding rimrock from one more kitty cat!

Don't waste the front shoulders, plenty of meat to turn into burger.

Pretty easy to do it yourself, pull the backstrap and grind the rest, or save a few larger muscles out of the rump for steak or pot roast.

I'd offer in trade for a piece of backstrap, if I was closer. 

Congratulations to the shooter!

If all you are needing is burger ground, I can do that here at the house. Grinder, mixer and vac pack. I am in Kent. If it is more than that, i dont know. Never even set eyes on a dead cougar so I dont know how it should be cut up.

I'd probably bone it all out and have it made into pepperoni sticks. Otherwise I'm not sure I could eat a cat. I'd go to Northwest Sausage and Deli in Centralia.

Stewart's Meats, on SR 507, between Yelm and McKenna. I cannot vouch for their service, but they do handle wild game.

Just butcher the same as a deer, pretty much the same muscle groups.  ;-)

I'm sorry if I offend anyone, but that is a waste and they should be ashamed of themselves if they do that.  Cougar meat is excellent and makes great burger and sausage too.

Stewart's does all my processing for me and I've never had an issue. I think the charge for a cut and wrap is about $.90 per pound with an $80 minimum.
