She doesn’t love ANYONE more than you Nelson, but ANYTHING (Muffin) is another story!

Actions speak louder than words

Earle thinking: “heck, or even MY ears”

I can barely imagine this conversation of Nelson asking if Earl loves Roscoe more than Nelson himself.

Points for Earl ! … Happy Easter !

Tickle his tummy….

It looks like Roscoe is waiting for some attention … ears, back, tummy … he’s not fussy. I had a Chihuahua that always wanted his back legs massaged. He would then lie on his back with his legs stretched out straight, and then get so relaxed that he’d fall asleep.

Does this mean that Opal loves Nelson more than Earl? Or perhaps just as much.

Different kind of love, Nelson!

Forget the cat , Roscoe rules today : )

Again, Opal rationalizes and doesn’t see how much more affectionate she is with Muffin than Nelson.

LOL! Opal needs to show her affections for Nelson, and oh, for Earl too! Do they ever kiss and hug?

My kitty definitly does not like her ears touched .

Earl’s got a point…in his own way of thinking!

In the unseen panel… Nelson is in the kitchen raiding the cookie jar. Grandma’s love doesn’t get much sweeter than that.

The cat likes it, Nelson wouldn’t. That’s why she doesn’t.

I think Roscoe is wondering why his ears don’t get massaged.

No one tell grandpa that grandma slips the kid $50 at each visit.

Well, Muffin is the cat, so that’s probably true. It’s a good thing Nelson didn’t ask about Roscoe, though, or he would’ve gotten a different answer.

Anyone ever try to kiss a cat? I did. ONCE.

Earl knows the unspoken truth.

Most children learn that if you want attention, you need to go and grab it!

When was the last time he sat on her lap for five minutes without squirmning? :)

I thought he meant, “Do you love muffin more than I do.”

although that’s kind of Firengi if you ask me. only between consenting adult Firengi.
