Big cat sighting turns out to be stuffed toy

[Still Waters 51,196]

Police investigating reports of a "large apex predator" on the loose in a small town have told locals not to have kittens about it.

At first glance, the beast certainly looked like it might belong in the jungle, rather than near Steyning, West Sussex, where it was spotted.

And as they arrived on the scene, Sussex Police officers were surprised to find that the reports appeared to be true: a black-furred big cat was indeed leaning on the back of a park bench.

Someone has a twisted sense of humour. I would have been just as fooled as the officers were. It looks so real!

That stuffed black cat would not be cheap. It does look real and I've never seen one like it!

A least, they didn't start to shot at it ? Oh sorry ! it was not in the US.
