I've never heard of anyone using a ferret to control snakes, even wild black footed ferrets avoid confrontations with rattlesnakes because their almost always bitten in a fight with an adult snake. Rattlesnakes strike is faster than a cobra, even a mongoose would be killed by one.If bobcats are on your property, then there is a food source; eight pet food left out or small pets. Snakes can be handled easily enough, you can always try and find a pest control person who uses ferrets for snakes.
Typically with pellet guns if the projectile doesn't leave your property your legal excepting Hoa rules, of course big cities have much stricter rules but it's doubtful the op lives in Dallas or Houston having rattlesnakes and bobcats in his garden.A 45 pound longbow and 125gr judo points does for garden pests in my yard, as even pellet guns are a no-no in town. Lethal on rabbits and squirrels at any range I can hit them ..... dunno about bobcats, but I've never had a bobcat stick around more than 2 or 3 seconds after he realized there was a human present.....
More than one household out here in the country just keeps a hoe near the back door
