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.

Dude, that bear is never gonna hear the end of it from his mates.

I also think this article is proof that "pussy" should not be a term that is used to refer to somebody who is weak or cowardly. :)

This further proves my thoery that cats are evil.

Indeed. :)

You've got to love the picture too, a giant bear at the top of the tree and a tiny orange cat at the bottom.

I say they should replace keifer sutherland on 24 with Jack the cat.

Maybe the bear was allergic. *nods*

When I was a kid, my cat named Liz used to chase dogs. Even the neighbor's german shepherd. And Liz was a tiny little manx. It was fun to watch her run. She'd scramble when she ran fast, and her hind legs would bounce like a bunny when she ran slower.

My cats, alas, not so brave. One gets scared at loud noises and the other is too fat to care--he'd have yawned at the bear and then laid down.

But evil is kewl.

They're just pure evil.

Theory? Hah! Fact. :)
