In most of these reports, the word 'probably' seems to be pretty common.

Can certainly see why so many people doubt the veracity of many of these sightings.

On the other hand, there are plenty of reports of sightings which are very believable.

I've not seen one, personally, but there are a few members on here that claim to have seen one, and I'm certainly not going to call them liars.

Looks like a childs writing having a laugh. Where are all the other photos and footage I wonder ?

A photo found in a collection, with a hand written note with no date. 

At best it proves a released cat was seen in a certain area at an unknown time....not that big cats are living and breeding in the UK. 

At worst it's a cat photographed in a safari park and sent as a hoax....to and from unknown people at an unknown time.....hence why the recipient threw it in a box and it got stacked in a corner.

If it is real it's really good and proves what a photo should look like.... especially since it was taken with old camera technology. Imagine the photos and evidence that could be produced today if cats were living and breeding

Exactly mate a clear picture would show they are here and with cubs would prove breeding but till then it’s guess work

Is the picture on the left the fake or the real one Eddie? 

The one on the right looks the more natural to me.
