Angeles, Oct. 15, 1 1974 Ghent of Seattle neighbors, who say the animal's cries are a nuisance. LOVE THAT CAT-Mrs. Elizabeth gets a nuzzle from her 150-pound cougar, Loki La AP wirephoto Puma. The cat has caused problems with the Animal-lover's cat Calendar gets neighbor's goat SEATTLE (AP) Mrs.

Elizabeth Ghent likes animals Big ones. And the biggest one is causing problems with her neighbors. The pet causing problems is Loki LaPuma, 150-pound cougar, who is the third generation of his family born in cativity. Mrs. Ghent also has a 55-pound Doberman and a 35-pound golden cat from Thailand.

Every night, Mrs. Ghent muzzles her Doberman, put the Thia cat in his cage and leads Lokie into the house at the end of a chain. "Come on curious cat," she tells him, stroking his head. Loki purrs like an obedient torncat. Many of Mrs.

Ghent's neighbors say Loki's howling sounds like the automobile ads on television. They filed a complaint with the city, charging Mrs. Ghent with having pets that are making "loud, disturbing and unnecessary noise." The neighbors also complain that the pets' waste products make the entire block smell like a zoo. And, they say, they are afraid for the safety of children in the area if the animal should get loose. Pro-tem Municipal Judge Robert O.

Duggan heard Friday from neighbors and members of the Animal Control Department. He then told interested parties he would delay a ruling on the matter for six months. He said if the howling and barking hadn't subsided by then, he would find Mrs. Ghent guilty of the nuisance complaint. Mrs.

Ghent told the judge that since she has learned of court complaints, she has brought Loki in every night and the noise has ceased. Mrs. Ghent said the fear that Loki could harm children is unfounded. To help quell rumors, she quit taking the cat for walks around the neighborhood, although Loki had been declawed before the complaint. "Animals like people," Mrs.

Ghent said. "The four-footed ones learn love from those around them just as humans do. Humans who haven't learned love as a child can't return it later on in life. Loki was born in a private zoo in Maine, she said, and has been "imprinted with humans." She once put Loki in a cage with other cougars, Mrs. Ghent said, and "he didn't eat for two weeks.

He went into a trancelike state and just sat there like a dead form. It took him two months to return to normal." So now she brings him inside, where he sleeps in a stairwell, near the kitchen. She uses chemicals to get rid of the smell. "I've always been interested in animals," she said. "You might say they are my children."

According to Randy Wright, supervising the project for the Department of Public Works, the first phase is the collection section of the project, connecting feeder pipes from homes and businesses to main trunk lines. The second and third phases, which will complete the project, call for construction of secondary treatment plants in both Clallam Bay and Sekiu, constructing sewerage pump stations, and laying outfall lines from the 'Ciallam Bay and Sekiu treatment plants into Clallam Bay. The estimated combined cost of the second and third phases will be roughly twice that of the financially hassled first phase, which is being constructed by DelGuzzi Construction Co.

of Port Angeles for $1.3 million. The first phase was delayed more than three months due to mistakes in submitting bids and spiraling construction costs. When the final cost estimate came in, the assessments to the area's landowners had jumped 30 per cent, and the cost of the project rose from $878,000 to the final cost of $1.3 million. However, the average yearly assessment to a landowner of $88 a year plus hook-up charges will be all the residents pay for the entire area's system, Wright said. That public amount hearing was in settled following a Clallam Bay Aug.
