Yes, someone is going to be very happy to be a grandma. Clear as day now!
WebSpider about 14 years ago
Bingo. Definitely pregnant.
On a related note, here’s an article about the ending of an era. It also has an audio interview from a radio show about the end of the Cathy strip.

Do I want my kids to be happy and successful or further overpopulate the earth? Give me a second.

I had the exact same thought, mcveinot and WebSpider. Seriously, it was the best ending because people have been saying it for years, and it leaves an open ending that leaves us wondering what’s going on with the baby. Plus it gives her the option to come back later (maybe in a spinoff comic). Excellent, Ms. Guisewite!

The dogs in today’s strip have the best lines.
Sounds like their little family may be getting bigger, yet!
Stay tuned! (at least for 2 more days)

Yes, but if Cathy was expecting, she’d need the bathroom more than the dogs needed the yard ;-)

Is C. Guisewite making any appearances soon on any talk shows, news programs,…?

It took THIRTY FOUR YEARS before CG realized she needed to spend more time with her family?? That’s something that sounds like the comic strip Cathy!
BananaSlug about 14 years ago
Hmm… I wasn’t ready to buy into the “pregnant” theory, but maybe. It doesn’t sound like she’s already pregnant, but that she wants to be, and that she’s forcing Irving to envision it, too.
I bet she tells her parents now, and he AACK!s because she didn’t tell him that was coming.

I’ve been a hugh fan since the beginning. I am going to miss reading CG’s take on life. I hope she doesn’t let us know if Cathy and Irving add to the family either by pregnancy or adoption. I remember seeing an interview with CG years ago when she said Cathy would never get married, so I hope that she at least stays child-free.
Yakety Sax about 14 years ago
just a late thought but, maybe……………………..TWINS? after all we can’t see the back seat.
