Viral Video Of Noblesville Cougar Turns Out To Be Just A Really Fat Cat [WATCH]

This guy took us on a wild ride. Over the weekend, a Facebook user posted a video of what he claimed to be a cougar in Noblesville. The video was then shared over 10,000 times and garnered over half a million views.

Well, according to the Indy Star, it is apparently NOT a video of a cougar. Instead, the Indiana Department of Natural Resources suggests it’s merely a “well fed domesticated cat.” AKA not a cougar, just a really fat regular ol’ cat.

The Indiana DNR adds that the animal can’t be a cougar because it was “too short and its tail was too short and didn’t have black markings,” according to WTHR 13.
