Dream

[tealin]

It was early nightfall – still enough light in the sky to see, but not well. Two dark foxes leapt over the back wall into the garden of the house to the west of us, and one of them eventually climbed in their back window, which was open for their cat to come and go. The other fox waited outside. Not long after, a black bear climbed into our garden and stood outside our glass door, watching the antics of the foxes over the wall. I was concerned for the cat but felt no malice from the foxes and no sense of danger from the bear – they were just animals doing their thing. And I wasn't surprised to see the bear in central Cambridge: this is after all why I cannot be relied upon to put the bins out the night before, Because Bears. You can take the girl out of Vancouver ...

Anyway, those neighbours don't have a cat.

But was it a Bear Of Very Little Brain? ;)

Well, he had enough brain to find the prospect of entertainment in a fox breaking and entering in pursuit of a cat ...
