Some Days You Eat The Bear
This isn't my usual sort of post but I couldn't resist! I first saw this news report when it appeared last summer (before I was blogging). Now it's turned up on the BBC News site's most emailed list, so the word must have got around. It's a picture of a cat chasing a large black bear up a tree, and it's possibly one of the funniest pictures I've ever seen. I hope you like it! (It's OK - the bear survived...)
It really is 90% attitude, isn't it?

It certainly seems to be! I was just writing somewhere else that confidence is more important than ability and this seems to prove it.

What a powerful illustration of the power of thought!I think I am bigger and badder than the bear, therefore I am!

I was just reading a post on Mark's blog about 'self-limiting beliefs' - I don't think this cat has any!

Great story! I like that cat's attitude :) Visiting via the Bestest Carnival.

My cat thinks it can do this. It just may be right. Thanks for sharing the story.

Nice to hear from those of you who called from the Bestest Blog Carnival (see http://afrogtokiss.net) and welcome to Malcolm and Webmiztris too!
I'm pleased to have helped to publicize this amazing photo. What I want to know is though: does the cat have an agent yet?
