Police say the mountain lions are generally solitary, elusive and avoid human contact.
"You know what they've been here longer than we have," said Ruben.
Still police are warning people to keep their pets inside at dawn, dusk and at night.
"We used to have a dog I used to tell mom after dusk before you open the door bang on it a couple of times so kitty takes off," said Ruben.
Hillsborough Police Department says the first sighting was reported two Sundays ago with the most recent one this past Sunday.
