Bobcat
All Scouts (Tiger-Webelos) earn the Bobcat badge upon joining – they learn the Scout Oath, Scout Law, handshake, salute, sign, and motto. After receiving the Bobcat badge, the Scout works on requirements based on his/her grade or age.

New Scouts should earn the Bobcat badge as soon as possible. The following pages contain all of the requirements, so your new Scouts can earn it and receive it at the next pack meeting.
