Pickles by Brian Crane for November 03, 2022

Of course she is in charge. Earl! Repeat after me, “I am staff.”

She’s sucking your warmth.

You should feel honored that she allows you to be her throne.

Chain of Command ; Cat , Pearl , and somewhere down the list Earl ! LOL

Earl has chosen to let Muffin be in charge.

sounds like a conversation about “who’s in charge” with misters Arbuckle and Wilco and their own cats

Never the less, it is a good excuse for getting out of chores.

You’re not a PERSON Earl…….. you’re a HEATING pad…… and THAT’S IT..!!!!!!

You should be honored, Earl!

In reference to Earl’s question in the second panel, it’s because Opal doesn’t just sit around long enough for Muffin to sit on her…

Don’t like cats! If I went anyones house that had cats they always wanted to come to me.

Hard to see the tv over the large cat on top of your large stomach. “Look at me! Me!”

Cats are thermal vampires, they suck the heat out of you.

No cats in my household and never will

I love it when one of our cats sit on my lap. Nothing beats a purring cat.

The surest way to be the person a cat chooses to sit on is to be allergic to them. They sense fear and they target it.

You’re in charge of feeding them, and opening the door when they want to go out or come in. They’re in charge of everything else.

People don’t keep cats as pets. Cats keep people as servants.

Tigger thinks I’m a pillow 24/7. I can only take it for so long then have to get up …Oy☺️☺️☺️

Pecking order for a happy home. Most of us learned this the hard way, by trial and error.

I have this Orange cat that will jump on my lap and demand to be petted. I can throw him off a 100 times, he will not quit. So I guess he is in charge.

I live with a dedicated lap cat.

Results matter.

Just as I was thinking of going out, and looked at one more cartoon before I did…. guess who jumped up on my lap just as I clicked on “Pickles”!!! He does know I like cats though, and LOVE him!!!…and I ended up looking at more cartoons instead of going out!

When we had a cat, this strip is where we picked up on COL term.

My brother-in-law was allergic to cats and my cat, somehow, always used to pick him, of all people, to sit with on the couch! Poor Fred! He was a meek guy who just couldn’t chase my cat off the couch and endured teary eyes and sneezing. Finally, I got the cat off the couch and put her in my room until he went home. Felines just find out people who don’t like or can’t stand cats and stay with or torment them.

In the third panel Muffin looks like she is saying “oh please”.

No cats in my home.

Cats rule old man get stuck cleaning up after them
