Well, what would you expect from a cat?

Cats don’t care about people, Opal. A dog will look out for you.

and they’re ALL good dogs, Brent.

We amuse cats when we screw things up so it is in their interests to give bad advice.

Watch it Earl or Muffin will tell Opal to get rid of you.

The truth about cats and dogs.

Who takes advice from a cat?

Muffin isn’t man’s best friend.

I have three cats and a dog …my four girls follow me around the house.The dog will not go to bed unless I go to bed and the youngest cat has separation issues she cannot stand a closed door between me and her.

This is getting too close for comfort – I frequently have conversations with my dog.

I used to talk to my dog all the time, which I suppose was a little strange, since he was deaf !

Seen on either a bumper sticker or a tee-shirt; I really can’t remember which. “Dogs have owners. Cats have a staff” and “Cats were worshiped as gods by the Ancient Egyptians. Cats have never forgotten this.”

There’s actually a German term for this: “sprechhund,” meaning “a dog you talk to.”

Muffin is a cat. Cats are agents of the devil. Dogs are four-legged angels in disguise. Big difference.

Unlike Muffin, who couldn’t seem to care less – Roscoe actually seems to be paying attention to them.

And this isn’t the first time Earl mistook Roscoe for his grandson, either.https://www.gocomics.com/pickles/2003/01/03
