Creepy Crawly Things (Are Delicious)
Now that we’re well into October, it’s time to start focusing on that all-important holiday: Christmas. Wait, that’s too soon. Don’t focus on Christmas yet. Stop focusing on Christmas!
It’s time to start focusing on Halloween, which has always been one of my personal favorites. I love when the spooky things come out, like vampires, werewolves, that big troll from Ernest Scared Stupid, and … SPIDERS!!!
Most people are completely freaked out by spiders, but I’ve heard others argue that they’re wonderful creatures who create “works of art” through their webs.
It made me wonder if some spiders wear french berets and reassure each other of their importance to the creative world. They might be a bunch of pretentious jerks for all we know.
Then I remembered that Olive likes to eat spiders. Webbing and all. So in the world of bugs, spiders might be creative geniuses, but in the world of cats, they’re an afternoon snack. Mwa ha ha ha haaaaa.
Love it! I’ll never forget coming home one day to find Olive with cobwebs stuck to her head in almost a Mohawk. One of the funniest sights!
There was also the time she was eating some cobwebs as we were leaving the house. We got home a couple hours later and she was still eating.
HA! I wish all spiders wore little berets.
One can dream, I suppose.
I love this strip! One of my favs.
I hope we get to see Francessco’s revenge eventually.
Thanks! We’ll just have to see 😉
Looks like Olive has the last word this time. Fun strip!
Thanks 🙂
Okay, if spiders really wore berets, I wouldn’t be so deathly afraid of them. Poor ‘ittle bugger. Oh…. (pun intended?)
He might take offense to bugger. He’s an arachnid 😉
This made me laugh out loud at my desk. Especially the fart at the end.
Ha ha! Thanks! I think it’s a nice touch.
