or make your own catnip soup.
Seriously though tweed and wool and leather (or fur or deerskin in the case or native people) enable you to get closer because your scent will be disguised. Ask a deerstalker
Its why country people can smell a bit funny to town people. Watch them move from the tweed or the fur wearer when its damp on the tube.
And on a horse its four legs=friend two legs=foe.
Notice in the only recorded incidents of late with hunts they don't kill the big cats. For one thing they would take the hounds out; and secondly because its great to have them there. of course if they did grow to significant number then like anything they would have to be kept in check if they did hit livestock hard. Ask the Sami what Lynx do their reindeer. Mind you they do have rather a lot of them. As far as the eye can se with some herds. But big cats hunt over colossal areas unlike the
Fox so at the moment their effect will be miniscule on individual herds. And puma in particular WILL attack people. So be careful in them thar woods
