Newlyweds Cathy and Irving navigate the treacherous waters of couple-hood. From pampered pets to prying parents, they’ve got a lot to learn! Wedding or not, it’s still all about Cathy - she personifies the young career woman and her typical daily obstacles. Ice cream, panic attacks, stress and love are all in a day’s work. We read, we identify, we laugh. Who could ask for more?
Cathy is the Everywoman. She deals with diets, self-esteem, in-laws, and letting her husband know that she is the boss. Everyone can identify with her shopping, bills, taxes, planning for the future and coping with her husband’s incessant computer golf games. Whether you are a newlywed, single, or have been married for decades, all will enjoy the daily predicaments of Cathy and Irving.

I love dogs and think they are incredible creatures, but I have no desire to be slobbered on my face. Ew. But still, give her two biscuits anyway, Cathy, because she’s a good dog.
Good morning, wonderful Cathy family! Hope you all have a good Monday (I know, that may be an oxymoron… ;-))!

Cheaper than a therapist!

Notice how the color in Cathy’s face and hair disappeared when Electra applied her “therapy”.
BTW< I LOVE doggie kisses. At least they’re sincere!

I agree completely lightenup!
Hello everyone!

As a cat person I’m guessing this is the equivalent of a furry-purry.

Are you kidding? That deserves a whole box of dog biscuits.

Yeah, dogs and cats both give loving attention:
Dogs do because they love you.
Cats do because they want something! (And sometimes because they love you!) Yeah, I have both!

No matter what kind of day I’m having, I know I always feel better after getting doggy-kiss therapy!!!!! ;-)
Hi,, rgcviper!
Hi, lightenup! Sorry to hear your little one may have a nut allergy. Will you be getting her tested? When people can put nuts into anything, even things you wouldn’t think of, it’s always best to be prepared — just in case! Regarding your question yesterday about my mom, she’s doing fine. She’s 76, still drives and lives on her own, enjoys crocheting, is pretty active in her church, plays cards and board games with the neighbors, cooks for us on Sundays, and many other things I probably don’t know about, I’m sure! Hope I’ll be able to do half as well when I’m that age (if I should be so lucky!). Thanks for asking!
Hello and Happy Monday, fellow “Cathy” fans. Hope everyone had a really nice weekend!

Yes, I’ll have to get her tested. I would hate for her to have a more severe reaction next time.
Your mom sounds great! She and my mom are the same age, but my mom has some health issues (bad back, arthritis, etc), so she doesn’t get around much. But she is a tough cookie and she certainly tries! I hope I’m still in good shape when I’m 76 as well! Here’s to a long, happy and healthy life for all of us! :-)

I agree with lightenup too. I love dogs, but hold the slobber. I have a cat that drools, and she has learned to keep it away from me because I won’t pet her if she drools on me. I have allergies and take shots so that I can have these animals, but they have to do their part too (it’s the saliva that causes the allergies). It should be noted that otherwise, they are spoiled rotten.

Two dog biscuits for feeling loved just because you’re you — I’ll take it every time! ;-)

Well, SUSAN, you beat me to it by pointing out that Cathy’s face went white in the third panel. The downfalls of reading the comics late …
HI, MOM. Hello, Clan.
