This is one wild tale.

这是一个疯狂的故事。

An Argentine woman rescued a cuddly abandoned kitten — only to learn two months later that the new pet was actually a wild puma.

一位阿根廷妇女救了一只可爱的被遗弃的小猫，但两个月后她才知道这只新宠物其实是只美洲狮。

Florencia Lobo said she and her brother found the furry feline along with another young kitten next to a dead *** in the Tucuman Province in northwestern Argentina and took them both home.

弗洛伦西亚·洛博说，她和她的兄弟在阿根廷西北部的图库曼省发现了这只毛茸茸的小猫，旁边还有一只小猫，再旁边是一只死去的成年猫，他们把它们都带回家了。

“We thought that it was an abandoned cat who had given birth,” she told Reuters.

“我以为这是一只被遗弃的猫生下的孩子，”她告诉路透社。

One of the kittens was too weak and didn’t survive, but the second, a male, made it through the ordeal. Lobo nursed him back to health and named him Tito.

其中一只小猫太虚弱，没能活下来，但另一只，一只雄性，挺过了这场磨难。洛博悉心照料他，使他恢复了健康，并给他取名蒂托。

Two months later she took Tito to the vet for a checkup and got an unexpected prognosis.

两个月后，她带蒂托去兽医那里检查，并得到了一个意想不到的预后。

“The vet didn’t know what it was but said it was not a normal cat,” Lobo said.

“兽医不知道它是什么，但说它不是一只正常的猫。”洛博说。

At the vet’s recommendation, she took Tito to the Horco Molle nature reserve, where staffers confirmed that the cat was a jaguarundi, a small wild cat found in South American and southern North America.

在兽医的建议下，她带蒂托去了霍科莫尔自然保护区，那里的工作人员证实这只猫是美洲虎，一种生活在南美洲和北美洲南部的小型野猫。

Tito now calls the nature reserve home.

蒂托现在称自然保护区为家。
