A Washington state homeowner got quite a scare when a 35-pound bobcat walked into his house.

The man says he leaves his front door open for his pet cats, but wasn't expecting a version of "Wild Kingdom" in his own living room.

The homeowner told animal control officers the big cat jumped over a couch, climbed over a big screen TV and then it made itself at home upstairs.

Washington Fish and Wildlife Officer Win Miller says they subdued the bobcat with a tranquilizer gun and released it back into the wild.
