I must say this spider freaked me out. So I decided to search what it was .I am assuming by pictures it is a cat faced spider . I found him on my deck in the city. If this is not a cat faced spirder can someone let me know what they think it is?I also have some other great pics I took of this spider.

Judging by where you saw it, my guess would be most certainly a cat-faced spider. Nice find!
