Huey be a fly cat.
j - I saw a cougar do the same thing at the Nashville Zoo. It was 2000 so I didn’t have a camera/video phone otherwise I’d post an animated gif here.
He or she was pacing and giving its attention to smaller children and paid special interest to babies and small toddlers.
Its interesting. I think the kitty likely was thinking how tasty the baybays would be. But based on what I perceived to be fleeting but intentional eye contact with the parents & other adults - I think there was an element of communication too. Likely resentment - if cougars are anything like house-cats.
Alternatively or additionally - the cat may have thought the children were cute. I’ve seen adult humans look at babies and small children like they wanted to eat them, sometimes saying ‘aw…you’re so cute, I just want to eat you up.’ - sometimes accompanied by licking or nibbling the small child.
Oy vey…
