A Mendocino Coast resident has lost a pet cat to a mountain lion. In the early hours yesterday morning, Shawnea Bowman awoke to noises outside her home and her dogs barking loudly. Looking through her window, Bowman spotted a mountain lion in her yard. The big cat, undisturbed by the dog’s barking then proceeded to attack and run off with her pet cat. Bowman says within the last three months has seen mountain lion cubs in the area of her home. Neighbors also captured images of a mother and her cubs on their game camera.
