Mystery of cat sightings deepensThe other day Max sent us the least convincing set of big cat photographs that I have ever seen.
As he so-correctly said when interviewed for the Somerset newspaper, they are most definitely of a domestic moggy.
However, the good boy is getting his and the CFZ's name out and about, and unlike so many other researchers, is continuing the CFZ tradition of not making stupid claims about big cats in Britain.















In November Sahar Dimus, our guide on four CFZ Sumatra expeditions, died of liver failure leaving a widow Lucy and four Children. On the 2nd November, Dezyama D. Sangma, wife of our friend and colleague Dipu Marak, our collaborator on the 2010 Indian expedition died, leaving her grieving husband and two small children.

It looks like Max has been misquoted as thinking the cat in the photo is a big cat. Its transparently a domestic but the people on the 'this is sommerset' sight seem to think that Max thinks this is a big cat!
My quote was as I wrote it, but they have taken it a little out of context! Basically, it's a non-story. As it says in the quotes from Mr. Highfield and myself, we both think it is a large breed of domestic cat, and the mystery in no way deepens!
