Fearless Warrior


This is our cat, Clio...she thinks she's the best thing ever. I've mentioned before that she is very bitchy, and I'm OK with that....we love her anyway.

Today she decided to take on a St. Bernard that was sniffing around in our back yard. Clio weighs 12 pounds, so while she isn't tiny...she really has nothing on the 200Lb behemoth lumbering around our garden and checking out our compost...
We have a little alleyway that is wooded running along the side of our house that our bedroom is on. We call it "The Jungle" 'cause Clio and Ladybird (roomies kitty), along with all the neighborhood hooligans (all of the kitten variety), just love playing around back there. Anyway, Josh heard a jingling noise coming in our window and peeked out and noticed the intruder, threw on some shoes and was about to head out to politely request that Mr. St. Bernard leave our garden alone when Clio decided to poof her tail and launch a head-on attack on the unsuspecting canine from The Jungle...needless to say he was out of our yard in about a second. I guess when a little black and white blur comes roaring out of the bushes at you with claws out and fangs bared, you have to respect the guts and assume it really can hurt you. I'm so impressed with our cat right now. She gets cheese tonight for sure.....Our cat rocks!
