Report from Brian Godwin
In November 1979, a strange cat was reported on the A839 near Muie, said to be the size of a labrador dog with black fur, but a distinctly feline face.
After this, local folk in the area gleefully began to produce photographs of their big cat. One of these was dismissed by officials at Glasgow Zoo as a staged picture using a large domestic cat.
