    SAN MANUEL, Arizona (KPHO, KTVK) — Homeowners in San Manuel were surprised when they opened their door to find another animal lounging in their dog’s bed.

The Arizona Game and Fish posted on Twitter that a bobcat was found lying comfortably on the dog bed instead of the homeowner’s pet.

The bobcat ran away before a Game and Fish officer arrived, but the homeowners suspect it entered through the unlocked doggie door.

The Arizona Game and Fish Department tweeted:
