8. It might be someone's (illegal) "pet" that wandered off...

VASSALBORO (NEWS CENTER) -- A baby bobcat that wandered into a VIP Auto Parts store in Sanford Monday morning has found a new home, at least for the time being. He's being cared for by Don and Carleen Cote at the Cote's Wildlife Care Center in Vassalboro.

Witnesses say the baby bobcat wandered the length of the store before hiding behind a toilet in the bathroom. Sanford police called in a Game Warden.

The Cote's believe the bobcat may have been in someone's home for awhile, since it appears relatively tame. Their hope is to rehab it and get it back to the wild.

That's their goal for all of the animals that are brought to them. They say they have no interest in turning these beautiful creatures into pets.

That's one tame wild kitty to allow a stranger to hold it like that...every one that I've encountered in the woods ran away as fast as it could..
