and inspired more than a little, perhaps, by a certain small wombat of peripatetic inclination, I'd like to humbly submit a small offering I made for cat_macros...
My cats had similar reactions to the guinea pigs. We used to let the pigs lose on a screened in sun porch during the summer and they'd occasionally boot the cat out of the sunny spot. Cats would give way to something that looked like a furry sausage.
August 2 when the Wombat emerges from his burrow. If he sees his shadow then he knows he got up too early and goes back to bed. Who gives a shit about the winter?
(I can't remember the source, but one older comic I used to read as a kid mentioned that the heavier the fuzz on the woolley bear, the harsher the winter would be)
Actually, a Woolley Bear is a caterpillar that goes dormant during the winter.
I remember where I used to read about it. It was in the B.C. (http://www.creators.com/comics/bc.html) comic, probably one of the B.C. books my parents had when I was a kid.

Fuzzy wuzzy was a bear
--> Be active in winter
--> Snooze and live off fat in summer
--> Sleep above ground
--> Go below the surface for food.
I say polar bear! Polar Bear Night FTW?
