Yes I did indeed see a large black cat. It ran across the Daylesford Trentham Rd in Lyonville....it ran up from the Lyonville Springs Road and darted out in front of my car. It was definitely a cat, about the size of a blue heeler and had a very long tail. It moved like a cat, looked like a cat but was a lot larger than a domesticated cat.
I wish I had time to take a photo, but it moved very swiftly and disappeared into a large patch of blackberry bushes, there was a large hole that looked like it was used regularly in the bushes.
Very odd.
