The office scuttlebutt is that there was a person from Duxbury that had an "exotic" pet mountain lion cub, and when this person got evicted from their house, they sent the cat to a relative in Pembroke to care for while they were staying in a homeless shelter. Then this cat "somehow" got free (and hadn't been reported to ANY authorities)!
I would hate to think that someone would do something this reckless, but there are those that will do ANYTHING to have a "status symbol" amongst their peers.
Of course this is fresh off the rumor mill, so I can't put much stock in its validity.
