Many of you were following this story with great enthusiasm. Rehabbing bobcats to release back into the wild can be very exciting and rewarding. However, sometimes, things do not work out as we had hoped. Those heartbreaking times can take its toll on rescuers. THANK YOU, EVERYONE for your kind encouragement and your compassion for little Journey. bit.ly/1BcpXg5
Oh god... First I was like, "He's so cute! He's gonna be the most happy bobcat ever!" Then you guys were like, "Sadly he passed away in his sleep." I cried..
I cried my self to sleep it was so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so sad have a great time in heaven journey I'm so sad emotional people and to Journey.
fuuuuuuuism Because this is reality, and memorials are a way for BCR to cope and mourn while letting us know they're still actively rehabilitating. It's way, way harder for the rehabilitators than for us viewers when a life they've done their best for gives out.
Thank you for your efforts. I've tried rescuing feral kittens and its so sad when they end up passing beyond in spite of everything you do. But you appreciate the successes more.
BCR, you are angels on earth. Thank you. There are no words enough to thank you. Lovely how the volunteer tested the right temperature of the milk on her arm, just like every mom in the world. Journey is grateful, up There.
I can't imagine how hard it must be on the people at the rescue when this happens. I mean, I never got to hold him and I've got tears running down my face right now. It must be so sad for those who actually fed him and cared for him and helped place him with the foster mama. My heart goes out to all of you at the rescue. THANK YOU for all you do.
Crying now. :( Thank you for being there for little Journey and making his short life the very best it could be. So much love and care was given by mama cat, her kittens and you all.
Thank you Big Cat Rescue for all that you do. I am saddened by Journey's passing and I can only imagine that this is extremely tough for the caring staff over there. You did your best and for that I am grateful. RIP precious Journey.
This brought me to tears. It wasn't his time to go.... He was so young! At least the mama cat loved him even if he was a different species he was still like a cat. Poor little baby we will miss him alot. All in my memory journey.
this loss must be so hard on your team, my heart goes out to you. i will pray for healing for you all. thank you for all that you do- keep doing and remember- nothing beats a failure like a try.
This made me cry like a baby. Not because he passed but because he was given such a huge chance that he wouldn't have had without you guys. You're truly amazing.
Aww. I loved seeing your work, and your efforts to save Journey. What a gift y'all are, to do what you do. Especially when a loss happens. Despite being on earth for only a short time, he made an imprint (pawprint) upon my heart. Thank you for sharing his story.
I bet he would have bin a good bobcat if he made it hope all of the others can survive. Thanks for trying to help him and the other animals you've helped in the past
Very saddened about this video!!. Poor little thing..at least the little one was loved and well taken care of!!. Bless Big Cat Rescue for trying to at least trying to save the little one!!
Know that you did EVERYTHING right. I know your hearts are broken but sometimes it's just not meant to be (not that it makes us feel any better.) Take comfort in the fact he knew he was loved and cared for and didn't die alone out in the wilderness
More people need to donate and be aware of this amazing rescue organization and all of the team members. I have spread the word about Big Cat Rescue to my family and my coworkers so hopefully, they can become more aware about the issues of backyard breeding, traps, and for the love of big cats stop going to the circus!
Thanks for your great work! There will always be a few people who watch all the cute, happy cat videos on youtube, and not realize that rehab and wildlife are NOT that world. They cannot all be saved, despite your best effort. But each one that does make it and thrive, that is why we do it!
dancydoober57@gmail.com Thank you for watching and commenting, THANK YOU for caring. You are right sometimes, no matter how hard we try we cannot save them all. It is never easy to lose one.
God Bless everyone at BGR for all that they did to save this precious baby and who filled his short life with lots of love. I know that Journey is now being lovingly taken care of by Angels for all eternity. Rest In Peace sweet baby boy. =^..^=
A year and a half ago I began feeding and 'humanizing' 3 feral kittens (4wks approx). After 3 weeks I was able to pet and pick them up. Due to work a friend took 2 of the kits to be vaccinated but the 3rd wouldn't come close. A few days later that kit declined suddenly and literally overnight. She was euthanized to end her suffering but I cried for days. I feel your pain BCR, bless you and your team for loving each feline life, no matter how long or brief it is. 💔
I'm glad he died knowing the love of a mama cat and siblings. I am very sorry for the loss at BCR. Thank you for giving this little guy a chance. Unfortunately things don't always work out the way we'd hope in the circle of life.
So sad that he didn't make it. Our local population took a terrible beating from the long, harsh Winter this year. The wildlife rehab took in at least three Bobcats starved to within an inch of their lives, and not all of them survived to be released.

This is soo sad.... At least he/she was lucky enough to be found by you guys and had the chance to live (shorty) in a loving environment. May your soul be free and without fear. R.I.P Journey. :(
Im so sad T-T. I was so happy. i forgot the title said "loss" And. im dissapointed. :-( R.I.P Journey, wish you have lived longer. Your in a better place now. Love you...
So sorry for your loss. He was such a cutie. The laws against burial make sense to me. With the trade in animal parts some scumbag would desecrate the graves looking for easy money.
Sorry to hear about this! I remember seeing the picture of Mama Kitty nursing the little guy, and thinking it was so cute. I hope Mama Kitty and her kittens didn't contract this virus, and further, that they can be adopted by loving people to give them a good home or homes.
platedlizard Probably this. Mothercats can sense it when a cub is doomed and leave it behind when they can't help it, it is often the case when you find a single cub that it was intentionally abandoned. If something happened to the mother, you most often find multiple small ones as they would stick together. Sad that he didn't make it though, poor little one...
We will always remover tiny journey in our hearts for as long as we live R.I.P. (At least he is in heaven having a great life and nothing to worry about)
At least he died around a loving, caring family instead of alone in the wild.

It's a pleasure to support you all. You are doing the work of angels. We never give up💙
Big Cat Rescue Well, he had a good, if short, life filled with Love--sometimes, that's all there is.
Oh god... First I was like, "He's so cute! He's gonna be the most happy bobcat ever!"
Then you guys were like, "Sadly he passed away in his sleep." I cried..

Atleast he enjoyed a small family good food and happy times nefore moving on.
So sad, that so made me tear up. At least, BCR and the mama cat gave him a chance and a short time of happiness, RIP little Journey!
thank you for saving the little one:) and for mama cat thanks for feeding .. she or he not die alone. Bless you guys.
Thank you for watching!
I bawled like a baby from this story and I feel sad for Journey, which I want him to be happy in heaven with the pain gone
So sorry about Journey God rest his little soul. Also may God Bless the other kittens. Amen
THANK YOU for all of your amazing love and help you give these wonderful creatures
Why would you make me feel and then tell me he died?!
fuuuuuuuism Because this is reality, and memorials are a way for BCR to cope and mourn while letting us know they're still actively rehabilitating. It's way, way harder for the rehabilitators than for us viewers when a life they've done their best for gives out.
-.- still upset
because we did not now he would die
Poor little guy. At least he had siblings and a mama cat to comfort him, for the time he had, _and he passed in his sleep.
Thank you for your efforts. I've tried rescuing feral kittens and its so sad when they end up passing beyond in spite of everything you do. But you appreciate the successes more.
Thank you for watching!
:( Rest in Peace, Journey. I'm glad that at least you were given comfort and were surrounded by people who loved you.
Rest in peace little darling...
Thanks for taking good care of him . You did your best .
BCR, you are angels on earth. Thank you. There are no words enough to thank you. Lovely how the volunteer tested the right temperature of the milk on her arm, just like every mom in the world. Journey is grateful, up There.

Absolutely heart-breaking !
This was a sad story. It was so cute.
Ow feels :( at least he passed away peacefully and while in good care
So sad that Journey died, but your efforts to raise him were appreciated, and maybe will help the next Bobcat orphan.
sorry for your loss . he was so cute
I'm glad he died knowing the love of a mama cat and siblings. I am very sorry for the loss at BCR. Thank you for giving this little guy a chance. Unfortunately things don't always work out the way we'd hope in the circle of life.
So cute ☺️
Nice mom kitty
I LOVE YOU JOURNEY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's so sad he looked so good in memory little journey 💗
What a rollercoaster of emotions

this video is so nice like it
+Markha Magomadova are you crazy=p
So sorry for your loss. He was such a cutie.
The laws against burial make sense to me. With the trade in animal parts some scumbag would desecrate the graves looking for easy money.
I'm sorry. You put so much effort into taking care of him. I've lost kittens and usually there isn't much you can do about.
Oh I'm so sad... My condolences to everyone at BCR. It's so sad to see such a young kitty pass away.
Sorry to hear about this! I remember seeing the picture of Mama Kitty nursing the little guy, and thinking it was so cute.
I hope Mama Kitty and her kittens didn't contract this virus, and further, that they can be adopted by loving people to give them a good home or homes.
I bet the mother bobcat knew he was sick and abandoned him. Sad :(
platedlizard Or she was sick herself and died or got ran over or killed. We'll never know.
platedlizard Probably this. Mothercats can sense it when a cub is doomed and leave it behind when they can't help it, it is often the case when you find a single cub that it was intentionally abandoned. If something happened to the mother, you most often find multiple small ones as they would stick together. Sad that he didn't make it though, poor little one...
3:01 the kitten snuggling with the bobcat looked like it was smiling :)
Aw nooooo!! That's so sad!! I was wondering why the video was so short. You guys were doing such a good job. :'(
His journey was short, but full of love :)
We will always remover tiny journey in our hearts for as long as we live R.I.P. (At least he is in heaven having a great life and nothing to worry about)
This is the most adorable but sad thing I've ever seen :(
Gone but never forgotten..
Journey
R.I.P
❤️
Poor baby :( ugh I almost cried.
Omg it made me cry I love cats
This made me cry! :(
Such an unfortunate event..at least little journey felt so much love before passing in his sleep 💕🤕
