You thought the rabbit was crying? Shame on you. Tears only mean he’s about to hit you harder than ever!
Will the yard critters ever be rid of this nuisance? Find out next Friday as this arc reaches its conclusion!
It’s tough being a baby. You have to learn and endless amount of things like walking, talking and making friends; heck, you even have to learn how to sleep. And just like all those other essential things, petting a cat is something that has to be learned over time.
I don’t think any child is born with the ability to pet an animal. Most first attempts seem to consist of a lot of grasping and tugging at the fur. Luckily, Hazel is pretty patient and also realizes that getting her fur or tail tugged on is still attention, so it can be tolerated.
I also have to mention that today is my wife, Meghan’s birthday! Meg is the best and happens to be the biggest CAAATS! fan on Earth, so it was fun posting this daughter-centric strip.
Cats sure love to run off with strange things. Rubber bands, bits of string, bugs. It seems like one of their favorite objects of all is that plastic seal that breaks off when you first open a jug of milk. Probably because of the way it tends to drop to the floor and go rolling.
A fun fact about the real Olive is that she tends to take this idea to the next level and is actually a bit of a kleptomaniac (one with an obsessive impulse to steal). Ever since we’ve had her in the house, tiny objects tend to come up missing or end up in a different place than where we left them. A favorite of hers is the tiny hair ties that belong to Georgia.
I guess it’s just another item on the list of quirks that come with cat ownership.
