Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.

Hee hee - I've been watching the poll all day.
At least some things are going my way today. I showed Mr. Fish the bear pic - he just stared at it in amazement. That is some cat!
What are you a doc of, by the way?

the right to arm bears
I'm thinking you need to change your quote to:
protect bears from cats, support your right to arm bears.

My fierce little 9-pounder tabby "Dayhunter" has attacked both a(full-grown) husky and lab that came to visit. He sneaks up and then goes right for their faces, 9 lbs of spitting, furious outrage. BUT he gets chased across the yard by our red hens almost daily - I guess he knows they live here and he's not to hurt them.
I hope DH (yes, that's what we've called him for years) doesn't every meet up with a bear, though.

My Isaac, who bears (hah! inadvertent pun!) a striking resemblance to Jack the Cat, but slimmer, once backed up in the little front yard as a German Shepherd dog came down the street on leash. I watch Isaac like a hawk when he's out there, and I thought, "oh, good, he has the sense to be scared of the dog." No, not at all. He was backing up to get a good running start. He flew over the chain link fence at the dog, hissing and spitting. Hard to say who was more freaked out. Dog? Dog's owner? Lise? I ran out there and snatched him up, the dog backing up furiously, barking, the owner screaming, "CONTROL YOUR CAT!"
I love the bear up a tree.Run like a dachshund! Ride like a superhero! Swim like a three-legged cat!

My sister had a miniature Dachshund who once chased a bear out of her yard.
Sis: "Doby! Come back, you woudn't even make an hor d' vors!"
Doby: "Bark, bark! Chase, chase."
Sis said that the dog swaggered around the place for days afterward.
Give big space to the festive dog that make sport in the roadway. Avoid entanglement with your wheel spoke.

I'm telling you. Dachshunds rule.
