TORONTO – A bear cub tried to break into a man’s condo by wiggling its way through a cat door.

Doug Harder captured the image of the cub last week as it tried to get into his Sandpoint, Idaho home…again.

You see, Harder has had a couple of run-ins with bears this year.

In May, a family of bears climbed up on to his condo patio and helped themselves to a plethora of birdseed from a feeder and some Dr. Pepper that was stored outside.

“I knocked on the door and the cubs looked at me but they could care less that I was there,” Harder told CNN.

On Wednesday, Harder returned home from vacation only to find a bear had entered through a sliding door and trashed his condo.

“He likes flour, brownie mix, Toblerone, and went all the way to the back bedroom for a can of Pepsi,” Harder wrote on Facebook.

The bear burglar also took a massive dump on Harder’s floor.

“It took about 2 hours with a carpet cleaner to clean it up,” Harder wrote.

The bear returned again on Friday and tried to get in through the cat door, unsuccessfully.

That’s one ugly cat.
