Bobcat CT335
When I crank my tractor, all I get is a loud click, click, click. I've checked the battery & cables and the fuel system.
Getting 7-10 inches of snow Sunday/Monday and will need the tractor to plow my way out.

I would check the battery cables and other connections again. The clicking is your starter solenoid engaging, but for whatever reason the starter isn't getting the message. Also, is there any chance that you didn't have enough antifreeze and the coolant froze? Can you move the crankshaft if you pull on the fanbelt? (Key off and in your pocket, of course.)
Next would be the starter; assuming it has headlights, turn them on and hit the starter. Do they just dim, or do they almost go out? If the latter, the starter may be bad.

Usually though it's just a bad electrical connection someplace, you just need to trace it out.

Try jumping it just to rule out a bad connection at the battery or bad battery though I know you said you checked them both. It is an easy troubleshooting option.

All of the above are correct. Your problem with the click click no turn over is electrical. Know for sure pull start it.
