Man finds bobcats in his attic

'How could an animal this big get in my attic?'

PHOENIX (CNN/KTVK) - An Arizona man opened his attic door and found himself face to face with a bobcat.

"It kind of startled me. I thought, 'how could an animal this big get in my attic?' So, I don't want to see any harm to come to them, but I'm serving the eviction notice," said Fred Greenshaw.

The bobcat wasn't too happy to be disturbed in her new home in Greenshaw's attic in Phoenix. He says the bobcat also has a few babies she's protecting.

Greenshaw says he called animal control, but they would charge a few hundred dollars to remove the animal. So he's resorting to his own creativity, blasting a boombox to scare the bobcat family out.

And, coincidentally, he lives on Wild Cat Drive.

So far, his new tenants are staying put.
