    "Big cat flips South Dakotan's robe into the water before running off"

    I just couldn't resist posting this. Apperently, all the Mountain Lion wanted was a nice relaxing soak in the hot tub, and this lousy human ruined it... :shake:

    Here's the full story. :grin: :rolling:

    :D
    Might be a bit surreal to find a puma from your backyard.
    I really have no idea what to say. It's funny, somehow anticlimactic, but also cool that the cat didn't bite that lady.

    It would have been funnier if the cat came back for a soak after scaring the lady away. :grin: :shake:

    Apparently, the mountains just a few miles to the west are swarming with Mountain Lions...however, I've never seen one. :rolling:

    Why do I get the impression that she thought this tidbit of information was greatly important?

    Or maybe the robe didn't know how to swim and was in danger of drowning. :D

    Maybe it was a robe of the stupid archmagi that was not waterproof and therefore destroyed.

    Or perhaps it was a way for the big cat to say "F*** YOU!" before running off. :p :rolling:

    If I had been that cat, I would had been attracted by the possibility of a warm bath too (during a cold day). Good thing that it was smart enough not to cause trouble, though, because hunting it down only because of a small leisure would had been a pity.

    Funny story! I was in Deadwood in July. It's a cool little town nestled in a valley surrounded by high hills/low mountains. I didn't see any mountain lion, but I was pulled over by Deadwood's Sheriff for speeding...

    Awesome, I never fail to be surprised by how quiet cats and their ancestors can be.

    I don't really see the connection personally, if the lion had wanted a snack, she'd be dead :p
