Mystery solved

... What is this, do you think?

Seems to be a house cat!

A very short sighting of this creature.

I think you can see a slender tail on that critter. Could it be a house cat?

@donray @danmccullough
I wondered that. But it seems big for a regular housecat?

@elliek @danmccullough

The scale is hard for me to judge. It doesn't seem real big. Maybe you have another video in the same spot with a known animal -- for comparison.

@donray @danmccullough
I do and it's a lot smaller than the fox. I think you're right.
The neighbor also said her cat was out at that time last night, so that seems more and more likely. Thanks! I will edit the post, or delete it maybe.

It's still interesting to see, even if it's a house cat.

@elliek @donray Yeah, I think I’m with Don on this. House cat. About how high up is the trailcam? I think the height of it distorts the size a bit making it look higher bigger than it is. But it definitely moves like a house cat making its way quickly.

Thanks Dan!
House cat it is!
