GLADSTONE, Ore. — Patrick Clark says he’s had his pet lynx, Sosha, since she was born 16 years ago.

But after moving last year to Gladstone where a neighbor complained, he’s now being forced to part with his exotic pet.

He’s trying to keep her. Clark says the 35-pound lynx never leaves her cage and has never hurt anyone.

KPTV reports that Clark is a veteran with post-traumatic stress disorder. He unsuccessfully tried to get Sosha qualified as a companionship animal.
