A dead kitty, is a good kitty!  Nice, big cat too.
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

Nice Cat!!  Damn I think I know that guy.  Does he live in Dayton.  I surely recognize the Dayton Hospital.  Been there a few times while I was in high school

Nice cat, it would be nice to know the story.

Seems often you come across a story or parts of one.

Since many looking at this thread may be interested in cats, and not to steal the thread, has anyone seen or heard of the cat that was shot over an elk kill this winter up near Naneum section?  Said to have been three cats on the kill and the young man in the pic took the biggest one.  the email said 325 lbs, most likely a lot of weight from the gorging.

Anyway, details appreciated.

Thanks for the link and yes you do have to take anything on the internet with a grain (pound) of salt.  I couldn't imagine a cat at that weight either.

Great to have the rest of the story.  Thanks again

I was told there was a cougar found dead in someone's yard up Mill Creek (near Walla Walla) last week.  You heard anything Firecrotch??
