Hey guys just sent in my kitty and am having trouble deciding on what to mount him on. Im having it jumping grabbing a grouse. Thanks i appreciate it.

Full body jump for the Grouse? I want a Bear that's just a shoulder mount reaching out with open jowels and grasping a Grouse.

A full boddied cat leaping off a piece of wood grasping a bird would be SICK.. (in other words, that'd be pretty sweet)

Why thank you. I hope he gets a good taxidermist that knows how to do cats. I had another done and it's horrible.
2 thumbs down is all I can say.

Thought this one would be a nicen to have jumping to show off its belly and its white toes on its back feet. Thanks for the pictures of the mounts i was leaning towards the more natural wood look anyways i really like em. Keep em coming.

I know a trapper that has trapped 100's of Bobcats. He got one 2 weeks ago with white toes and said
it was his first ever. What a prize for sure.

I was on a coyote stand and sat down and literaly blew my call for 8 seconds and he came in for the stalk. He looks alittle skinny because i hit him high in the back with the 243 and it sucked his insides out lol

I shot that ugly one with my 22-250 @ 10 yards. Turned the cat inside out.

Charlie does a nice job on cats

Here's mine from a couple years ago. I did finish the base up with a snow scene, it looks awesome. When I get a chance I'll take some good pics of it completed.

You picked a good pose to show off the rosettes on the bottom of that bobcat.

Congrats on a nice looking cat.

Who is Charlie? and How much did the mount cost you? Looks great. I have a cat in the freezer I am thinking about getting mounted.

I like MuleySnipers bobcat mount (first two pics). Last picture is like the bobcat I got, I need a piece of wood to put him on. Any sugestions?

Is that the wood used on MuleySnipers cat? If so how do you get it?

MuleySniper · « **Reply #21 on:** January 31, 2011, 03:36:22 PM »

No, I used a chunk of old growth twisted juniper on mine. I sprayed it with about four coats of catalyzed lacquer.

No that is nothing like diamond willow, this is where I would recommend he has some real nice diamond pieces. I have quite a bit but making a bed out of it.

I have my kitty at Charlie's (Charlie's Taxidermy near Chehalis WA) right now and can't wait to get it back. I saw some of his work on this site and took my cat to him for the first thing of mine for him to do. I have subsequently taken him my deer and my brother in laws deer as well. I have confidence that he will make it a work of art! Looking forward to it Charlie!!!

How hard was it to find that juniper you used on your bobie mount MuleySniper? Thats the wood I like or maybe some Cedar since I am on the wet side, that I have on my place free90free.

MuleySniper · « **Reply #25 on:** February 01, 2011, 10:11:10 PM »

I got it from my buddy Luke at Blackwater Fish Replicas. He makes annual trips to eastern OR and gathers/buys it. He let me dig through his pile until I found a piece I wanted. The pic does it no justice. It's awesome. I've since finished up my mount completely. I'll post some better pics of it all done. I just need to take some, I'll try to tomorrow. I'll get some close ups of the wood too. You might want to check out his website or give him a call, he would probably sell you a piece for a reasonable price. He uses a lot of juniper with his fish mounts. Otherwise you might just have to search the www.

Thanks MS for the info.

MuleySniper · « **Reply #27 on:** February 02, 2011, 08:22:04 PM »

No problem! Here are some close ups of the wood. Also lots of people wanted to see a pic of my mount "done"

Plus it was nice to take it down to clean and dust off.

bucklucky · « **Reply #28 on:** February 02, 2011, 08:25:55 PM »

Base turned out nice man. That wood is sweet!!

MuleySniper · « **Reply #29 on:** February 02, 2011, 08:48:01 PM »

Thanks. Its too hard to see the drifts in the snow since its so white, but the detail is there. I figure if I get tired of the snow scene someday, I'll just make a new one with different vegetation, but so far I'm still diggin the snow. Leaving for the eastside tomorrow after work for throughout the weekend in hopes of some yotes and a potential feline rug candidate of the same specimen
