The government claims they do not exist in the NC mountains. That is crap. They do. If you ever hear one you’ll know why they are called ghost cats. Its a horrifying noise. We had one the other year. I never saw it but only heard it. Others saw it. Thankfully one neighbor was good enough to shoot it.
