I saw this cat

[I_UndergroundPanther]

He was sitting on a drain top near the woods. Omg he was gorgeous a long haired brilliant orange guy with vivid orange eyes. Big cat too. He was master of all he surveyed sitting out there. I stayed at a distance and watched him.
He was sunning himself and he took my breath away. Later I got some ham for him, and dammit he ran into the drain but I left the ham there. I hope he came back and ate it.

I am wondering is he that young cat I saw a few years ago that took my breath away then, that ran before I could catch him? If so,he grew into a magnificent brilliant orange lion of a cat.

Wish I could find out where the colony is.

Wish I could catch and tame a kitten that looks just like him,that cat is gorgeous.
Maybe get help with TnR with the colony too.

If I see him again and I have my phone I will try to get a picture of him for y'all.

2. Cats like cave-like places.

In a place I lived recently there were irrigation ditches* that were not in use outside of summer growing season. All the feral cats and a skunk or two would spend much of the winter sheltering in them because it stayed warmer and there was no wind deep inside.

*These ran underground for about 150ft.
