Report from George Redpath
I received this one by 'phone last night from a lady who not only wishes to remain anonymous but also wants the exact location kept secret as she feels she may be pestered, as has happened in the past!???.
About 0800 hours on 09/01/2003, a large black cat was seen near Stewarton. The cat which was very muscular looking, had a very long thick tail and was about the size of a greyhound, was lost from sight after leaping into an adjacent field and entering a wooded area. The lady was very concerned as there were a number of ponies in a nearby field and also she was aware that a large dog had been attacked and injured in the area a few weeks previously. She is to keep me informed if there is any more sightings of the cat.
I have her name and telephone number should we wish to contact her again.
