We took our German Shepherd puppy (about 4 months old) for a walk near Karaman this afternoon. We saw a huge cat, I assume it was a stray. It came out of one of the caves at the bronze age cemetary.



It was bigger than our dog, Efes. It looked like a normal household cat but was a lot longer in the body and considerably larger.



It didn't seem scared at all by us or Efes, it just glared at us.



Anyone else had similar sightings or know of large cats that liv eon the island?

Does it like taste of GCs. Somebody chase it to the southern lands please. My GC cousins need a bit of exercise running away, just incase after december the gaco soldiers decide sort out GR and the rest of his band of fascist reprebates.



They have not run away for a few years and they are in need of some exercise.

I live next door to a farm and one of farm cats is really big with exceptionally long legs, perhaps it evolved like that to avoid getting those horrible burrs and prickles caught up on his body fur!!!

They have BULL cats in Australia, this sounds very much like one.

We have several stray cats that we feed and 3 of them are HUGE! One of them is bigger than the dog that we have just lost.

My friend who is Staying n Karmi saw the same thing a few weeks ago, he phoned to ask if we have BIG cats here as this thing was bigger then a Dog!! First he thought it was a big fox until it glared at him then ran up an almost straight cliff face. I thought he had gone mad but now it looks like I he may have been right and not losing the plot.
