One Tough Tabby
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/5067912.stm
Tabby cat terror for black bear Jack the cat is possessive about his territory, his owners say A black bear got more than it bargained for after straying into a family garden in the US state of New Jersey. The unwelcome intruder was forced up a tree - twice - by the family pet, a tabby cat called Jack. The terrified bear was only able to make its escape when owner Donna Dickey called the hissing cat into the house. Ms Dickey said Jack liked to keep a close watch on his territory and often chased away small animals, but one of this size was a first. "We used to joke, 'Jack's on duty', never knowing he'd go after a bear," Donna Dickey told local newspaper The Star-Ledger. "He doesn't want anybody in his yard," she added. The bear was first spotted in the tree by neighbours who thought the 15lb (7kg) cat was just looking up at it. They then realised the bear was afraid of the cat. After some 15 minutes, the bear descended, but was chased up another tree, before finally making its escape when Jack was called indoors. Bear sightings are not unusual in the area of West Milford in New Jersey, which experts say is one of the state's most bear-populated areas. |

Heh. Reminds me of one of our old cats, George.
Cat was territorial as fuck. No bears, but he did take on an entire family of foxes. Came back scraped up a bit, but we never saw a fox in the area *ever* again. |

Great Pic Subby.
My sister had a mean ass cat that beat/scratched the bejesus out of some neighborhood dogs. One day I heard a noise in our attic. I went into the garrage, and saw our cat perched on about thethird rung of the ladder to the attic, but nothing else. Upon closer inspection, she had "treed" a Dachsund in our attic. She chased a weiner dog up a freaking ladder into our attic. I wish I could have seen that. |

The bear will never be heard from again. His fellow bears will tease him until he runs away to another part of the country. That picture is something out of The Far Side. |
