Pasquale: Peekaboo! You'll fall in the water!
Pasquale: Hang on!
Pasquale: Your rescue is a complete success!
Peekaboo: I could do without the mocking prey!
She’s not been de-clawed. She shows her claws a lot in this strip. This was just a really durable beach ball. For the cat haters…why do you bother reading this particular strip when you know this family has a mischievous cat that they adore?
No, Peekaboo has her claws. There have been strips in the past where she’s shown them to great effect. Also, we’ve seen her get soaked and it doesn’t seem to change her cat behavior!
One of my favorites was when she caught a water balloon — she was soaked, and the final caption was “Catching a bird in flight is nothing like I expected.”
That was very intelligent of Pasquale to go for the net. If he’d tried just grabbing the ball he probably would have had his arms shredded to the elbows by a frantic kitten.

I’d like to know how the bird stayed on the top of that ball. Cartoon physics, I suppose…

Susie, if you don’t like the kitten, just stay away and let the rest of us enjoy her antics.

How embarrassing for Peekaboo.

Why don’t you quit reading the strip if you’re such a cat hater. Or at least keep your sniveling yap shut.

A little water won’t hurt kitty, and she’ll know better next time.
