What’s hiss is hearse.

As soon as Earl hissed at the cat I knew it was’nt going to end well for him. Um, yeah…..don’t ask me how I know this!

Earl got Muffin mauled

I’ve hissed at my kitties. But just in teasing. Mostly I love to purr at them.

You should know better, Earl! Cat’s have claws and no sense of humor!

And now we know where the word cat-a-pult came from.

Sorry, Earl but you’re hiss-story.

Never get in a hissing contest with a cat.

A cat’s hiss is a warning: Heed the warning. And don’t provoke a cat.

Muffin’s full name should be ‘Muffintopheles’.

This how the term hissy-fit came about.

The stupid cat took offense at what Earl said

OK, weren’t they just referring to Muffin as a “him” recently? Now they’re back to “her”. Let’s keep it straight, Crane.

Time to send li’l Muffin packin’ on down the sidewalk…

Looks like Muffin was up to the challenge.

The strip for today was a real laugh-out-loud riot! Muffin really showed Earl a thing or two about how cats behave in adversity.

Muffin made toast out of Earl.

dropkick me Jesus through the goalposts of life

end over end neither left nor the right -— Muffin 3 Earl ragged pants. hate when that happens

My cats were getting ready for a squabble this morning, hissing and growling at each other. I joined in the hissing and growling, and they promptly disappeared!

Our cats don’t try that stuff. We’ll chase them down the hall.

Muffin and her hissy fits.

Looks like Opal’s gotta break out the Mercurachrome (sp?)

Really great comic today! I burst out laughing !!

I would have one less cat. Actually I wouldn’t have put up with it hissing at me.

After that, I would be having Muffin spend the night outside, let her try that stuff on the coyotes.
