She was all alone and appeared to be a roaming kitten that had been deserted or separated from her family.

Guzman brought the kitten home, but quickly found that this ‘kitty’ was not acting like a regular home cat. Elber thought that someone may be off, so he called his region’s environmental company.

It turns out that the kitten Elber rescued was not a kitty, instead a baby cougar! Since the cat was so young, it truly did look very similar to a kitty, so it was easy for Elber to think that.

They agreed to pick the cougar up, and gave her a veterinarian exam prior to bringing her to their rescue center, where she will certainly get the proper treatment.
