Over a month ago I wrote a short story for Tessa's blogontest blogfest: it was meant as a fun read and featured a scary creature stalking a youth while on his way home from the pub. The story seeded and stemmed from a rather large black cat I'd spotted lounging at the bottom of our paddock. It leapt up and jumped across the ditch and headed into the cover of trees, nevertheless I thought it unusually large for a feral cat, but thought no more about it. It looked not unlike this: big, but not so big you'd think it a black panther.
That sighting was almost five years ago in middle paddock: seen here as hay field!
Narberth is 6 miles from my house, Clynderwen 2 miles.

This is the short story penned by moi: "Hoody"

Ha ha you so predicted that one Francine.
Stay safe okay?
That is strange!
Good call. :)
Hi Joanna & TGE,
I guess when one lives in Tiger or Lion country it's the norm to have a larger than life pussycat sat in one's paddock, but this is the UK for crissake!

That's really odd!
Try to stay safe :)
Hi Kristina,
I think, if out there (plural), they're fairly shy creatures so not much threat to humans unlike lions!

Eeek...too many teeth and claws for me! Good inspiration, though
