your plans are to run bobcat right? has this dog ever been on a cat track? or seen one? usually they loose interest in the rabbits and stuff quickly once they start running cats. usually just some mild discouragement is all that's needed. I have seen very few confirmed rabbit runners. many hounds will show interest when one jumps up underneath them and may even run it a few yards. then quite and come back. I guess the real question is how much experience the dog has and if it is trailing rabbits up or just running the jumped ones?
