I was kind of hoping Demon Cat would stow away in the car. Cute little thing…at least she would be once she spent a week under Doug’s highchair and put on some pounds! Just think how she and Sophie could ‘bond’ while they picked up the ‘bits’!
Funny how we’ve kind of grown attached to her isn’t it!
Ahem. Brian? Where is she?
The Demon Cat of Georgia is back in Georgia where she belongs. If she left there, she’d have to change her name, and who needs the hassle of all that paperwork?
Besides, once the bat-wings appeared, it became more apparent that she’s not suitable as a recurring character. Animals thinking dialogue to each other, and a lab puppy dreaming she’s a bullwhip-wielding action heroine, are one level of fantasy. Supernatural cats are another level of fantasy, and having one around on a regular basis would unground the strip.
If you’re going to lobby for the Demon Cat, why not lobby for a spin-off strip? That way, Anderson could give you the (literally) damned cat every day, she could flit around on her wings as much as she wants, and it wouldn’t disrupt the Sophie/Doug dynamic which is the whole point of THIS strip?
Doc, I’m (mostly) joking, too. But I suspect some others are not. I’m not pro-cat by any means, but I’m not as anti-cat as my comments often read. (I guess you could say I’m anti-pro-cat. I AM pro-dog, but like you anti-cute, and I think Anderson mostly successfully avoids the “Awwwww…” moments; yesterday was near my threshhold, though.)
I, too, like the strip the way it is and am content to let Anderson do what he wants with it, but if people are going to lobby for the addition of a cat, I want to make it clear that the desire for one is not universal.
If by some chance Anderson did spin off a “Demon Cat” strip, I’d check it out, but more for the fantasy element than the cat element (and as far as cartoon cats go, D.C. has been a very good one).

Sophie looks content and happy to be in her home.

Get a grip, people. It’s only been two days…
