No. Platypuses are endemic to Australia, while bobcats are from North America, so they never have the opportunity to meet dangerous ones such as bobcats.
Platypuses eat small invertebrates. They do not eat vertebrates, and certainly do not prey on any mammals, let alone dangerous ones such as bobcats. Platypuses lack teeth, so would be unable to eat bobcats. They use grinding plates in their bills to crush small prey such as yabbies, crayfish and annelid worms.


It would be more likely that the bobcat would eat the platypus.
