"Courtney said: "You see so many strange looking animals on the side of the road over here. "I had to put my phone on record and point it down to the road, unfortunately it isn’t as clear as I’d like it to be. Looking at that picture it does look like a bobcat. My partner was just looking and he saw a Scottish wildcat on Google and I think it looks like one of them but …. in person you can see a spotted pattern on its coat.""

"But when she went back an hour later, the animal had vanished. She added: "I’ve just gone on to the bypass with my partner and pulled over, and we stopped exactly where I saw the animal, and now there is no animal there. So I think someone has seen my post and gone to take it.
“There’s no animal there. I’ve literally gone up and down again in my car with my full beams on, but I can’t see any animal there now. So I don’t know what’s happened in the past hour, but I think someone’s seen my post and they’ve taken the animal.”"

All they need to do is go back to that exact spot and place a cardboard cut-out of a domestic moggy for scale, but nobody will. Also was she afraid the cat would come back to life and jump up and attack her? Get closer for heaven's sake.
Anyway, those white lines are 15cm wide apparently:

I think it is a domestic cat and some kindhearted soul stopped to give it a proper burial, but would love to be proven wrong
