    Been talking to the lady putting the list of Dorset sightings together, she's given me permission to put a link up to the page.

    Dorset Big Cats Register

    I saw one some years back at Birdsmoorgate in Dorset. Unmistakeable, about 4 foot long with a huge tail, rolling on its back in a field in broad daylight.

    Anyone else with sightings (apart from Dim:heehee::WINK1:) let us know & we'll get the info onto the list. Doesn't have to be in Dorset, there is a national register too:dbgrtmb:

      I do remember being on Dartmoor when I was very young (maybe 8 or 9yrs old:scratch:) and seeing a large black animal off a short distance whilst standing on a tor and then doing a double take when I realised it wasn't a sheep and it wasn't quite moving like a dog would either.

        There has been a recent sighting around a fishing lake in Cheshire, photos too; also a few other witness reports from anglers, I'll see whether I can get photos up later. We (the angling club) are currently talking to the Big Cats in Britain group for their advice on what it could be...:thumb:

        I have also been in Devon on holiday when sightings were reported and footprints found...

          Not for long:heehee:

          I know 2 other people who have seen one around here. One was seen in the car headlights jumping across the road.

                I'm presuming this is the new Loch Ness Monster, in Somerset.

                Too much scrumpy, and I mean the apple kind.:loll:

                  Ye of little faith, you won't be convinced until my dismembered skelington is found half way up a tree.
