“I stopped at the momentary traffic signal which existed then, and wanting them to rush and turn green. Then from the left nearside I saw something and understood it was a huge black cat.
“I did not believe for a minute it might be anything else. It certainly was not a deer, or a dog or a domestic cat, it was a huge black cat.
“It was as high as the headlights on my Land Rover Freelander and it was likewise rather muscular. Then it ran behind the car, straight throughout the roadway and was gone.
“The lights turned red and I was in two minds whether to turn around and go look for it. I decided going home to bed instead was a much better option anyway.”
Steve says he does seldom publish on Facebook. However he chose to ask others who live in the location if they have actually stumbled upon any huge cats.

“I was sceptical about huge cat being out there in the Gloucestershire countryside, today I have actually seen one, I understand one is out there. I had actually likewise seen a post on Facebook a bit earlier from somebody stating they had actually seen a huge cat in the location.
“I do not publish on Facebook quite however I chose to ask in a post if others had actually seen a huge cat in the location and informed them what I had actually seen. Some individuals commented to state they had actually seen it, and there were others making ideas of what it might have been, however I understand it was a huge black cat and not a domestic one.
