Cat Forum / General Topics / July 2006Cat or Cougar ?
I caught this Cat on my video surveillance last night..and cant decide if its a Cat or a Cougar. They say Cougars are supposed to be extinct out here in the Poconos. (north-east PA) The way he is walking all calmly like the predator, makes me feel like he's not an ordinary cat..Usually ordinary cats are more skittish. Any help would be appreciated. Its a small video clip only a few seconds long - http://www.socom3.com/bigcat.mpeg John Please tell me if you think this is an ordinary house cat? I dont think it is. ? why is your security cam so low to the ground and that is any ordinary cat all cats walk like that in their territory when undisturbed > Please tell me if you think this is an ordinary house cat? I dont think it > is. Im going to elevate it soon. I just put it up recently. I dont see how u think this is an ordinary cat. If you watch it frame by frame you'll see what i mean. >? why is your security cam so low to the ground and that is any ordinary >cat all cats walk like that in their territory when undisturbed > >> Please tell me if you think this is an ordinary house cat?

I love the way your sensor light comes on _just_ as the cat goes out of frame! >I caught this Cat on my video surveillance last night..and cant decide if >its a Cat or a Cougar.

Not a cougar by any means. >John Both are cats. The video quality is crap (so probly wont by useful catching the bad guys, "Oh, he wore a hoodie" (just like every other punk in the state). When it is running at proper speed, you can see the cat footsteps occuring more frequently than a big cat would. If you count footfalls as beats, domestic cats have a beat of 5 or so footfalls per second. A big cat has closer to 1 or 2 footfalls per second. (That's just physics that does that.) Plus, never seen a cougar with a fluffy tail.... (unless you talkin about a 40 year old drag queen from Chicago, in which case it's a fluffy tail with a feather boa) >>I caught this Cat on my video surveillance last night..and cant decide if >>its a Cat or a Cougar.
