Halloween can be a scary time. And if you're a rescued bobcat at Big Cat Rescue in Florida, you really don't need a costume. You're fearsome enough already.

Take Running Bear, for instance.

He may be small, but those teeth would certainly be an excellent complement to a fearsome Halloween costume.

But happily for Running Bear, this season's holiday is more about tricks than treats - and it's never too early to celebrate.
