For reasons that totally elude me there has been a spate of “Strange but True” animal tales hit the news, so I thought I would collect them into one quick round up for posterity.
Tabby cat called (Mad) Jack trees a bear:
Yep a 15lb tom cat was so territorial about his back yard patch that he twice treed a fully grown Brown Bear in New Jersey USA. Reminded me of the scene from that old Disney movie about two dogs and a Siamese cat, crossing a state in Canada …. I think it was called “The Incredible Journey” …. In which the cat takes on a Grizzly Bear to save the small dog (I am not talking remake … the 1963 version is the one I am thinking of).
Seagull thief is after the Doritos
You heard it; Sam, a seagull thief, has been regularly raiding a newspaper shop and stealing packets of Doritos (Cheese flavoured Tacos in a packet) in Aberdeen, Scotland. Good job he hasn’t spotted the local “Fried battered Mars Bars” or there would be trouble.
That Darn cat, a cat predicts those about to die.
Who needs Doctor Death when you have Oscar the death sniffing cat? He wanders the wards only stopping with people about to die. This is in Rhode Island USA …. What are they feeding the cats over there?
Like a Bad penny they always turn up … lost cat found after 10 yrs
A cat called Lynx who disappeared 10 yrs ago, turned up in a strays hostel who tracked his (original) owner down.
When I was a kid our cat ‘Bouffs’, 'moved' about 15 houses away and lived with a family there. She refused to stay with us, and we accepted it. Then after about 2 yrs she walked back into our house and refused to return to the family who she had been living with. She stayed with us another 8 yrs until her death as an old cat. The other family were so upset that they got a dog! Mind you, we had told them that Bouffs was as thick as two short planks.
