PELHAM, NH — Another Ring video from New Hampshire posted on the Neighbors app. This time, the resident wonders if it is a fisher cat or maybe something else. Can you tell either way?

This animal was spotted at just before 1 a.m. on Jan. 15 in Pelham.

Fisher cats, officially called a fisher, according to the New Hampshire Fish & Game Department, are slender and muscular and are often confused for their weasel and mink cousins. They live about 10 years and often just eat whatever is available.
