I have a large Hybrid cat that makes that same sound when it gets challenged by another cat. If the oter cat keeps crouding it the sound turns into a scream then a growl and the fur flies. That sound is a warning off sound.

I've said this about bobcats for years:  They are curious and weird.  No other explanation for their behavior to me.  This lil guy fits right in.

I've made sounds just like that, the squeak/squeal/wheezing.  I had a really bad respiratory infection.  Illness would explain it's tameness, dizzy with fever..

my cat made the same sounds when it had a sinus infection.  it prob did feel threatened at all since it was sick, also could have just been on its last leg of life, cats tend not to live if the get an infection of the sinus, since they can not smell, and when they cant smell they do not eat.

Kinda sounds like the Randy Anderson call, think it is named Catnip.
Was the first thing that came to my mind but I don't have mine handy.

I would have assumed it to be rabid and blasted it. No question. As cool as that is I would NEVER let a Bobcat get that close to me unless it's dead. That said, they sure are cool creatures.

I called one in 3 years ago off of the rocks he was cat napping on. I only had my 300 Ultra with me.
I went back to my truck to get my 22 mag and he stalked me the whole way. Never a sound though. Weird.  :dunno:
I couldn't care less about what anybody says..............

I like it when he bent down to pet it like a good kitty :chuckle: that could have went way wrong, would have made for a really cool video if it had been a trick ( on the cats part  :chuckle:)
