Video: House Cat Stares Down Mountain Lion
OutdoorHub Reporters 06.22.15
Cats love to stare out of windows, but it’s not every day that a mountain lion stares back.
We’re not sure if this cougar simply dropped by to say hello, or if it wanted a quick snack, but the house cat certainly didn’t mind. Showing a strange lack of common sense, the tiny feline sits calmly as the cougar probes the window for weaknesses. The larger cat even threw in a hiss or two, but that didn’t seem to worry this kitty in the least. Finally, a concerned mother was able to shoo the predator away.
The video was taken by comedian Tom Mabe, who lives in Kentucky. We’re pretty sure he got a firm scolding for telling his wife that the kids were out back, but we laughed nonetheless.
