And the ensidia feral guide... simply a hugely long read, but it's awesome, especially for kitty DPS.

And a brief single target threat guide:

Single Target threat – The key to strong single target threat is keeping FFF and Mangle on cd and make sure you are keeping a full stack of Lacerate up and Maul queued up at all times.

The only time Bears seem to have threat problems is in the first few seconds of a pull. I overcome this by using FFF till the boss becomes attackable, then immediately smacking them with Mangle, after that I will lay a single lacerate down and then berserk and mangle/maul macro till berserk is over giving me a good threat lead.

After that I work on stacking my lacerate to five always using mangle and FFF as soon as they come off cool down. Once you have lacerate stacked to five you only need to refresh it when there is about 3 seconds left and you will use swipe as filler. Maul should be qued up as close to 100% of the time as possible.
