Good Morning !!!

The guy picked it up and then threw it on the ground. The lady had a pet carrier. I think this video is a prank to make us believe there was a bobcat, but it was a domestic cat.

No, I watched it several times...the thing comes across the road at the 4 second mark look at 11 O'Clock from the neighbor's lawn across the street to the left of their cars...

Then the woman is walking with her cat in the carrier... I think the thing jumps on her to get her cat... she's screaming, they guy goes and picks it up by the scruff and realizes it's a Bobcat!!!

You're right. I see it the way you describe after watching it in full screen mode. The woman probably couldn't sit down for a couple of weeks with the claw marks the bobcat had to have given her.
 
If it were me, I would clean the crap out of my garage so I could park my car in it, and come and go in safety!!!!!!
We Americans have way too much fascination with "stuff". I'm amazed how many people don't park in the garage because it's full of "stuff". Our basement is stuffed full of stuff.

However, after emptying my Dad and Mom's house, we are working hard on clearing out anything we don't use around our house. Yard Sale next weekend (weather permitting) at McEachern UMC in Powder Springs if anyone wants to help. :) Anything left after the sale will be available at a area thrift store not long afterwards.
 
My truck won’t fit in our current garage but we’re having 10’ doors on each of the three garage bays on the tentative new house with the third bay being a pull thru. That was really my only request, other than that I’m letting the Queen design it.

(And yes, the pull through garage bay is for the boat because I’m not risking damaging the house or boat when backing it. I have no shame in admitting it).

Yep!

That has always been my absolute NOOOO. Do not put junk in a garage... cars go in a garage.

My parents had a two car garage that never saw a car park in it due to projects being spread out and entirely too much crap.

My garage has always been for my car.
 
Update of sorts:

3:19 PM PT -- TMZ has obtained the 911 call, made by a neighbor, from the incident ... and you hear the moment the man fires a shot at the animal. The caller says the bobcat was struck, but still alive as dispatchers scramble to get to the house.

2:49 PM PT -- The Pender County Sherriff's Office tells TMZ ... officers contacted folks in the neighborhood and those who encountered the bobcat were treated at a hospital.

A rabid bobcat attacked a North Carolina woman in her driveway and her husband jumped in and hurled the animal across the lawn ... and it's all caught in this wild video.

It's unclear if he shot the cat, but authorities say the animal died and tested positive for rabies.

Dang!

I wondered about being rabid. Most wild animals will go out of their way to stay away from humans.

One time when myself, my father-in-law and uncle-in-law had come out of the woods after deer hunting. we watched a fox come up the electric line right of way. We yelled at it, jumped up and down and it just walked on by. My UIL said at the time that it was rabid, as that was NOT normal behavior. (We couldn't shoot it because it was out of season and because the right of way is a no-shoot zone as it's in the city limits. They tried to close us down once before, so we don't mess around with that rule unless directly attacked)

I have seen two bobcats in the wild, one took off as soon as it detected I was in the deer stand in South GA, the other scared the crap out of me in New Jersey, I was walking in a park near dusk when I heard a terrible loud yowl, looked up and saw it in clear space ahead of me. When I stopped, it took off into the woods. Had another yowl at me in South GA, (again, scaring the crap out of me, it sounded 30 ft away) but it was under cover and I never saw it.

My FIL had an animal, a fox as I recall, track him back to his deer stand. He felt that one was rabid too when it started circling his stand looking for a way up, so he took out his emergency pistol and let fly with it. (too close for a rifle shot). Like above, he thought it was hit, but wasn't sure but it ran off which was his main concern.
 
My grandfather found a fox pup caught in a trap while he was out deer hunting. It was injured so he released it from the trap and took it to a vet. He kept it at the house for a few months until the vet said it was healed and could be released back into the woods. He liked that fox pup, but he released it because it was for the best.

If you have ever heard a Bobcat in the wild it will send chills up your spine. It is a primal thing I guess. I was followed by one deer hunting in some very thick brush in Upson county years ago. It was a surreal unnerving experience even though I had plenty of gun to eradicate the problem. I also saw a huge diamondback sunning on rocks that same hunting trip.
 
We have two Shiba-Inu dogs and when we take them out with us people generally say they look like foxes. They're crafty little escape artists so we have to make sure they're collared with tags at all times in case they get out and roam the neighborhoods so they don't get shot. We have them chipped and registered with Home Again as well.

Yeah, don't let them get loose in a deer hunting zone for sure!

Yeah, it freaked me out for sure. Took me a while to figure out what it was the first time as i couldn't see the Bobcat.
