The west side of Colorado Springs has seen its share of bobcats lately.

Monday, 11 News heard from another west side resident.

Billy Peetz says a bobcat took one of his cats, Smoky, a Russian Persian a few months ago.

The cat seen in the picture provided is still alive.

The Division of Wildlife warns, bobcats will feast on smaller cats, but typically not dogs or children.

leave the wildlife alone! Be a responsible pet owner and fence/kennel your pets. Change your way of thinking that its all about you!

Take your pets inside you stupid people. You chose to move into an area with wild animals. If your cat gets eaten its the owners fault not the wild animals fault. When are people going to learn?
