Kliban's Cats by B. Kliban for December 13, 2022

Holy moly!!

In certain ranching areas, artists can make a good buck painting images of prize horses and cattle. Still-life of flowers and fruit aren’t nearly as lucrative. I suppose it’s the same with prize-winning pets. I just hope whatever special food is fed this cat isn’t nibbled at by the field mice.

Wow, that is one huge cat. I’m very impressed.

Catabunga!

That is an impressive qat!

Burton must weigh a ton

My first cat, Noko Marie, was a North Beach stray. She had the street smarts.” (North Beach is a tough area in the center of the city, despite its name.)Noko was brought home by Mr. Kliban’s wife (they are now divorced) and was soon joined by a male dubbed Burton Rustle. And then, of course, there were kittens. With at least four cats around the house, Mr. Kliban began to draw them." New York Times Feb 12, 1978

With that small head, large body, looks like Burton was neutered too young…

Awww! So cute, even if he’s lopsided! ☺️❤️

Superb example.

I’d name him ‘Pinhead’.

Named after Bertrand Russell?

A lovely Champion

I’d forgotten the cute spelling of his last name.
