Remember when Ricky Bobby lost all of his driving mojo and had to be helped out by a cougar so he could remember how to be a bad-ass racer again? We’re asking this because, apparently, taking your pet cats – and we don’t mean the little, domesticated ones – out for a leisurely joy ride is something that isn’t just happening in movies these days.

This footage was taken in Russia after a car spots an Audi TT->ke1081 on the ride with a most peculiar head sticking out of the passenger side window. As the car got closer to the Audi, they realized that there really was a head, only that it didn’t belong to a human. It belonged to a leopard.

Yes, a leopard - those ferocious, feline beasts that can literally devour us if they so please. Turns out that this car didn’t want anything carnivorous to eat; all it wanted was a nice, cool breeze on its whiskers.

You gotta see it to believe it.
