Baby Blues by Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott for January 28, 2023

garage is prolly cold

maybe it’s just in torpor

Wanda that’s a little extreme don’t you think. Would rather find a dead bat than a mouse. Usually more than one mouse.

She’s batty

What you guano do?

One of the cats turned a big rat loose in the house once. I said, “We’re moving.”

Oh, Darryl, you sneak.

Huh? Live bats are good, they eat pesky insects.

Home Depot sells bat houses. I’ve had mine on the garage peak for years. Babies are called “pups.”

I don’t even go in our garage.

At least it’s dead.

My barn used to be full of bats, but the white nose disease killed them off.!

Mice and bats are both cute, actually.

They keep other pests populations down, they’re really quite sweet, just make sure your animals have their rabies shots and there’s not a problem. I know someone who makes bat houses, they’re good to have around actually!

Fear is all about perspective.

Get a grip, it’s only a bat. Better than mice or rats.

Bats are pretty harmless compared to rats.

At least Darryl didn’t have to turn the whole house upside down to find the bat.

To be fair, mice are a lot cuter than bats.

Quick, Daryl! Tell her she’s over-reacting!

growing up we had a bat that got into our basement, my one sister told our mom & our mom said that she was nuts & then years later our mom said that it was true & wanted to down play it, so she lied to us.

This could have been a funny offering if it had been written the other way around. Ever wonder why in the movies and on television situations are exaggerated? This situation is all too normal and typical so the humor factor is virtually non existent.

What killed it?

That’s what you need to know first.

Totally agree with Wanda.

You appear to be quite satisfied with your self Darryl.

Had a sick bat fluttering around the back yard with the cat swiping at it. The next day we found it dead and called animal control. They came out and took it, and made us quarantine are cat for two weeks. It had rabies.

Haha! XD
