TODAY'S BIG CAT NEWS
The hunt for British Big Cats attracts far more newspaper-column inches than any other cryptozoological subject. There are so many of them now that we feel that they should be archived by us in some way, so we are publishing a regular round-up of the stories as they come in.
The worldwide mystery cat phenomenon (or group of phenomena, if we are to be more accurate) is not JUST about cryptozoology. At its most basic level it is about the relationship between our species and various species of larger cat. That is why sometimes you will read stories here that appear to have nothing to do with cryptozoology but have everything to do with human/big cat interaction. As committed Forteans, we believe that until we understand the nature of these interactions, we have no hope of understanding the truth that we are seeking.

THE GONZO BLOG DOO-DAH MAN IS TIRED
The Gonzo Daily - Tuesday
Well, boys and girls, the last few days have been momentous ones. The Weird
Weekend was a great success, but - despite being massively tempted to do
otherwise, because I was once again carried away with bonhomie, I announced that
this year’s event would be the last, at least in its current form. I then got
overwhelmed with emotion, and so, at the end of the evening, like The Snark, I
softly and silently vanished away without saying good bye to anybody. I felt a
little guilty about it but I come from a tradition of stiff upper lips and I
truly would not have wanted to blub in front of everybody.
Then yesterday it was my birthday. Shosh and Gavin where here as was Julia
the psychic, I think it shows how well everybody knows me that my presents where
mostly alcohol and books, a creepy ventriloquists dummy, a wind up butterfly and
a dvd about The Unabomber. I spent the day reading, dozing, and basically
basking in the love of my family.
But a lot of this has all been overshadowed by the news this morning that
the legendary Gilli Smyth died yesterday at the age of 83, she was a remarkable
woman, although I only had the honour of meeting her once, I am very glad that I
did so. Our condolences and loving vibes go out to Tally, Orlando and the rest
of her family.
And now for the news................

* Jon Downes, the Editor of all these ventures (and several others) is an
old hippy of 56 who - together with an infantile orange cat named after a song
by Frank Zappa, and two small kittens, one totally coincidentally named after
one of the Manson Family, purely because she squeaks, puts it all together from
a converted potato shed in a tumbledown cottage deep in rural Devon which he
shares with various fish. He is ably assisted by his lovely wife Corinna, his
bulldog/boxer Prudence, his elderly mother-in-law, and a motley collection of
social malcontents. Plus.. did we mention the infantile orange cat, and the
adventurous kittens?

FORTEAN BIRD NEWS FROM THE WATCHER OF THE SKIES
What has Corinna's column of Fortean bird news got to do with cryptozoology? Well, everything, actually!
In an article for the first edition of Cryptozoology Bernard Heuvelmans wrote that cryptozoology is the study of 'unexpected animals' and following on from that perfectly reasonable assertion, it seems to us that whereas the study of out-of-place birds may not have the glamour of the hunt for bigfoot or lake monsters, it is still a perfectly valid area for the Fortean zoologist to be interested in.
