Ok, let me see if i can answer your questions. 1. She was about 50ft from me and i could see she had no "kickstand". 2. She seemed very comfortable with me there and just loped off after 5 seconds of watching me watch her. 3. paw prints were approx. 61/2 wide by app 7 long. I will admit that she is very dark in color, not the light tan that i am use too seeing in Texas, especially the one i was tracking that was tracking me at the same time, figure that one out. Iv never seen her tracks any closer then 100ft from house, which is the same place/area that i have seen her. Yes i have a lab, she has sense something in the woods several times but have never see the cat while im walking the dog. All the dogs in the area are tryed up or house dogs that dont run wild, which brings to mine that i havent seen any feral dogs or cats in my area lately either,Hmmm. My fault, never thought of the plaster, sorry. I havent seen her for about 2 months, her or new tracks. A cougar was sighted near laural, Del. last year. As you know, these cats have a very large area that they roam so its possible that this is the same cat. Caused quite an uproar in that area.
