Our farm near Red River in Clay County, Texas having an issue with some sort of large black cat spooking and stampeding cattle enough so that they're going through barbed wire fences; I guess someone saw the cat. Don't be silly realthing. Everyone knows these black cats don't exist. It's aliens and ufo's.
If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.

[quote=CJBS2003]Tigers and Lions can be successfully mated and are probably the most famous of the wild cat hybrids called a liger./quote] Here's what one looks like... Actually, I think that is Lady Ga-Ga's new look, just on a designers sketch board. You could cash in really big

Guys claim there are black mountain lions on Pennsylvania... Amazingly, ever photo I have ever seen of one looks like a black house cat to me and with the 800,000+ deer hunters, no one seems to every shoot one. If I see a big black cat, I am shooting it. Just so I can prove there was one. HAHA

Go ahead and pot a chupacabra while you're waiting for the cat to come along.
It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

Wow I can't believe this thread rose from the dead recently. Inspired me to share this email that I received from a complete stranger, TC Dean, who saw this thread:
TC DEAN "I will give you the story , take it or leave it , but it isnt BS
I was 17 , and living in Denison TX , My girlfreind , had a Black Siamese that had Mated with a Bobcat from the nearby Hills ( I Think Raped might be more the statement ) but , there were 8 Kittens , 1 was a Runt and the Mother rejected him , he was going to die , I took him home and fed him with an Eyedropper Milk , Proteins , and other Nutrient rich liquids for 2 months . then he started growing , I then began giving very small pieces of red meat , torn up into very small pieces so he could swallow them . He really started growing then . I named him Ninja , and he ended up almost 40 pounds and Wild , the Bobcat side was very strong , I had a great relationship with him , but I thought he was getting a bit too much for the area I lived in Other peoples pets might be in trouble , he would never hurt a child though , had plenty examples of that , he was very careful around kids ........
Anyway , after 2 1/2 years together I had to take him to the Wilderness and let him go .
He grew , Mated and had children , You met one of my baby's offspring .
I would love to have a Zip file of those pix just for my Memories
it was 1983 Lake Texoma area I drove him up the River side after the Dam out 40 miles or so to let him go .
To State my position clearly , I am a Craftsman with a Reputation , a Specialist in Vintage Guitar repair , and restoration , I now live in Japan and have some pix on Picasa of my work if you wish to see them .
TC Hope to hear from you ."
Then My Reply: "Thanks for your insight I was hoping someone might write to me about that cat. All the best pics were posted on the forum where you can copy or save them. If you want the whole batch just let me know.
We haven't seen it since and I don't expect to.
Thanks for your message."
Then TC Dean Reply: "Ok well I used the right klik Save As trick , and have those pix , they almost brought tears to my eyes .
As I said I had a great Relationship with that animal , and no one believed me when I told them about him because I didnt have any pix , My friends of that time knew him .
But My kid saw the Pix , and was like ," Whoa , what you said was true !!!" that was worth it , your pix made Dad a hero ( For the day at least ) there are sightings all over North Tx now , I am finding more and more on the web . Bobcats will attack , but I think if you take your time , you could make friends with this guy , You would have to do it alone , and bring him gifts . Meat scraps , other stuff . But I think slow approach , and You would have something extrordinary in your life , whatever you do dont kill him ............ I wish other people could think without dominance being the first thing in the mind ."
It's ALL about the fish!

And to wrap up one thing, here is my best effort at estimating the size of that cat, based on relative size of 5gal bucket and size of my dogs: The Black Cat Short Album

Wow, that is amazing ~ when you first posted those pictures I thought it was really just a big black cat, but when you compare them to your dog pictures and then really look at the cat pictures you can tell it is some kind of hybrid cat. Hopefully you will see him again!
