Brit terrified after spotting ‘big black cat’ on the prowl outside her work

Terrifying big cats are on the loose in Scotland, if one woman's sighting is to be believed.

East Lothian-based Lisa Elliot, 36, was at work when she snapped what she called a large black “puma-sized” cat.

According to the Daily Record, she saw the beast roaming across a field before it hastily disappeared into the long grass.

The sighting of a possible puma is just the second one in the last few years in Scotland, according to Puma Watch.
