BOULDER, Colo. -- Mountain lion encounters in Colorado arent exactly rare, but they dont usually produce such great photo opportunities.
Gail Loveman, who lives in Boulders Pine Brook Hill neighborhood, snapped a handful of photos of a standoff involving a mountain lion and her Maine cook [sic] cat, Zeus.
It happened last Thursday evening when the cougar walked up her porch and peeked through a sliding glass door.

we had a cat that looked just like that when I was growing up and you did not want to mess with it. It used to chew cigarettes.

Cool. The cat is so bored with him. HAHA. We have a cat that is tiny and often jumps at the french door at night in the bedroom waking us up. She once was attacking (not really) 4-5 raccoons standing there watching her pounce against the glass. Our cat girl is a real killer :-D. Cool mountain lion pictures though. He or she loves the statue and is actually getting much more enjoyment of it then the cat. He can’t touch the cat.

Photoshopped. The similar pic at the source even more blatant.

If that is an outdoor cat, it’s an indoor cat now! No way I’d let it outside.

Well,,,, my old girl, Hu, weighs only 7 pounds. The much younger girl, Mao, weighs in at 14 pounds. Moa should kick Hu’s butt in a fraction of a second. But that’s not how it works with felines. Attitude and a dominant behavior trumps size. I’ll wake up and find clumps of Mao’s hair on the floor, and know that she challenged, and lost. Still,,,, if this Coon Cat was out on the porch,,,, it probably would have ended up as lunch.. Don’t know fur shure though.
