Cat's Cafe by Matt Tarpley for May 23, 2020

Aw… Poor Shimp…

Nice Hammer Time reference. X3

Manta Ray is flying out of panel. o.O 4th wall powers? Woah!

(belated) Oh yeah… When you try and try, but you don’t succeed, and through no fault of your own. =’(

Just be yourself, and people will come to you!

Just be your natural self. When you push it, people see it as fake.

Darn inferior screen.

Poor shrimpy, he’ll make friends.

Never give up hope, Shrimpy.

:’(

Poor lil thing just wants to get involved. There’ll be something for you, just keep looking.

Don’t worry, shrimp. There are many who like you… …as food, that is.

All his pals joined the Bubba Gump company and were never heard of again. Since then, Shrimpy is all alone.

As an only child who moved around a lot, you get used to going up to strange kids asking “can I play?”

It is always hard to hear “no”.

Maybe it is why I am more of a loner.

Hang in there ! … Just do your own thing :-)

It’s okay, Shrimp. Some of us never find a tribe.

it is better to be alone than to be in bad company.don’t force it, Shrimp.

I can really feel this one … :’( I hope that little thing finds someplace to belong and some creatures who welcome new friends.

He needs to go to the Cat’s Cafe for a cup of coffee and welcoming friends.

Hey, why is everyone telling the little shrimp to be patient, or blaming it for “trying too hard? Stick to your own kind?” Why is no one saying it’s the others who need to be more open to new friends?! Kinda sums up the world these days, “Don’t know you? You’re not like me? Don’t care.” C’mon little one, let’s go get some coffee.

Welcome to our herd, S !!!

It is hard, Shrimp. You may have to wait until the sadness runs its course, then you’ll be able to try again.

Don’t give up. Be yourself and keep reaching out. You’ll find someone that way.

I guess Hammerhead wasn’t hungry. Sharks are supposed to eat shrimps!

Coffee Time trumps Hammer Time every time!

I can relate to cats cafe sometimes and that makes me smile.

the whale calling song wwwwwwwwhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaallllleeeeeee

This comic is one of the sweetest ones out there. Even when it’s characters are sad too

:(
