GbayGiant Posted April 17, 2007 Report Posted April 17, 2007 Well once again my buddy sent me these pics in a Email with no story but WOW! imagine seeing this outside your door ? From a guy out in Martin , S.D. Pictures taken from his kitchen ontohis deck. The cat was watching his little kids playing on the kitchen floor.
Bernie Posted April 17, 2007 Report Posted April 17, 2007 Not that I have ever seen one but it appears it's a young one. Still wouldnt want to see one at my door. I would on the other hand like to see one in the bush-at a distance.
fishindevil Posted April 17, 2007 Report Posted April 17, 2007 Big cats look so amazing. ..but man you wouldnt want to mess with one thats for sure,i wonder why the cat came so close seeing how they are very elusive,and are rarley seen. ..thanks for sharing really cool pics...cheers
Northhunter Posted April 17, 2007 Report Posted April 17, 2007 That first pic is too cool. Not that I'd feel that way if I walked into my kitchen to see that lookin' back at me!
Joey Posted April 17, 2007 Report Posted April 17, 2007 Holy Crap, maybe the racoons aren't so bad. I'd be afraid to go out in the backyard at night if I saw that on my deck that's for sure. Great pics. Thanks Joey
easton13th Posted April 17, 2007 Report Posted April 17, 2007 I would have had an accident in my...well whatever. I would have been scared!
Steelcat Posted April 17, 2007 Report Posted April 17, 2007 What a beautiful kitty cat~! I think my mouth would be like "cat" in the last picture WIDE open~!
Cookslav Posted April 17, 2007 Report Posted April 17, 2007 (edited) I' am guessing they feed it? That is incredibly odd to have a big Cat come that close, let alone stick around for a close encounter with a camera? If they are not feeding it... I'd be very worried about the mind frame/mental health of that particular cat. But either way those are some cool pics. Thanks for shareing. Edited April 17, 2007 by Cookslav
camillj Posted April 17, 2007 Report Posted April 17, 2007 hmmmmmm.... great pics .. but .... reallly .... I am thinking ..... family pet

Allthough it may be an awesome thing to see out ur very own back door i would have very many concerns. Especially if i had young children. They''re has actually been reported incidents in the states of mountain lions taking small children from there very own back yards. I would be watching my outdoor surroundings very carefully. I AM NOT SURE HOW OLD THE CHILDREN ARE BUT IF I WAS TOO SEE THAT on my back door i would be calling someone to have the animal relocated back out to a more secluded erea away from humans.

OhioFisherman Posted April 17, 2007 Report Posted April 17, 2007 Oh no! LOL not what I would like outside my door or in my county! Cats are cool! in a zoo! Years ago a buddy and me didn`t have anything to do so we got a case of beer, took our b-b guns and drove to a deserted industrial section of the Cleveland shoreline. We had a few beers, shot the heck out of some beer cans, I turned around and sitting on the broken concrete rubble was an Ocelot watching us. Not real big as big cats go, but certainly something you wouldn`t expect to see roaming around Cleveland. LOL my buddy want to use it for a target, I didn`t want to do anything to tick it off, we decided the inside of the car was a better place to be. Half drunks and pink elephants? a couple weeks later there was a story in the paper someone caught it.
ccmtcanada Posted April 17, 2007 Report Posted April 17, 2007 Snopes come through again...but a cat that big should be in a zoo...and not on my porch!!!
mdej Posted April 17, 2007 Report Posted April 17, 2007 Okay Rick, do you Snopes everything you read or just have a large memory bank of urban myths. Regardless of the story, as some point someone did take the pictures (Dr.ZZZ) and even at they they were neat.

Regardless of the story, as some point someone did take the pictures (Dr.ZZZ) and even at they they were neat. I just remembered that one from a year or so ago. Still very cool pictures. 99% of stuff from email is urban myth and usually the harder the email attempts to add credence, the less it deserves.
Dano Posted April 17, 2007 Report Posted April 17, 2007 I dont believe snopes either. Clearly its Steve French looking for a little chronic.
ecxstriper Posted April 17, 2007 Report Posted April 17, 2007 Don't care if it is legend or not would love to have that cat hanging out around my house. Big predators are a rare sight and becoming rarer every year.

bucktail Posted April 18, 2007 Report Posted April 18, 2007 Watched one on the portage from Head to the the Hog. There closer then you think.
