no.. 2 totally different cats.. bobcats are smaller & have a bobbed tail (hince the name) & i'm pretty sure they have spots while cougars are the same thing as mountain lions.. as far as living near each other i'm not sure.. cougars prefer high rocky regions but i think bobcats live in forested areas
