So the other night a fat cat friend of mine was coming over, my wife was away for the night and I started thinking, when the boss is away, the cats will play. I didn't want her to "have kittens" for me cooking a cat in the house, and if I wasn't caught I wouldn't get the Cat o'nine tails! Joe had recently spent some time traveling around China, not pussyfooting around, he tried some unusual table fare. He's not a Fraidy cat, so when I suggested bobcat for dinner, he wasn't about to let sleeping cats lie.
They say there is more than one way to skin a cat. From the back down, socking out the legs, or like a bear rug. The latter was how I did mine.
We sweetened the kitty in a curry made from scratch, and let it simmer for a few hours. The meat was lean and very soft. I would say something close to pork in color and texture. The flavor was great! As you can tell from the grins on our faces in the photos, you would think this was a cheshire cat. In fact we both went back for seconds and we nearly finished the cat's ass curry. I had heard others rave about how cougar meat doesn't rub most folks fur the wrong way, and even though I haven't tried it yet, when I finally take one, I will eat it too!
