Am I the only one seeing a big black Tom Cat? How can a Police Dog handler imagine that is 'Panther' sized? Maybe he's been sniffing his dog after a drugs find or something...

Doesn't look particularly big to me.

if it was a pc cat it should just walk over most of them plants.

The UK rail gauge is 4' 8 1/2". Going by that scale, it puts the cat at about 2 and a half to 3 feet in length. Plus the tail (which looks very long itself, much longer than my cat's tails.

I say big cat tbh.

well if you love at it in relation to other stuff in the clip, i'd says its a brave sized cat

[edit] damn beaten, and he knows the sizes and everything

Certainly looks like a big cat to me!

AcidHell2 works on the railways and will be able to backup Apopcalyptics measurements!

It sounds like shiny buttons has an unhealthy interest in that cat.

Yeah, just looks like a large black tom to me too.

Wonder whether he'd been drinking?

JBuk · 28 Jul 2009 at 14:49

Using the rails to try and judge its size then it does look quite a bit bigger than the average housecat imo

Well that copper has failed at being a eye witness
looks like a big tom cat to me.

Skidder · 28 Jul 2009 at 14:50

either it's big or that railway is a hornby effort

What's with the heavy breathing?

And it's a cat.

The panther I saw at Bangkok zoo was roughly about the same size as the one in the clip

It does actually state the gauge in the article, but I thought it was common knowledge

Logic and reasoning on the OCUK forums.

Good working out, it certainly looks a lot larger than most/any domestic cat i've seen (assuming that is normal railway gauge), so it's either a very big pet puddy tat, or it's a small/young big cat of some kind.
