Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for August 07, 2013

Tell him it’s a chihuahua… a cussing, beer-guzzling chihuahua.

LOTS of cash!

It’s too bad you can’t get Mutts in GoComics.

Curse your big ears, Rat! Foiled again!(Today only, we sympathize with Cartoon-Boy.)

Stephan has the right idea: one wants to be rid of rats.

I have a rat trap you can borrow! And no, it is NOT one of those silly catch-and-release traps!!

Shouldn’t Rat have a drinking buddy named Fink?

Oh how the tables have turned on Rat.

Hilarious

Throw in Cash? Mr. John Carter Cash called, he’s NOT interested! His parents would not have been either!

I don’t remember seeing Goat so excited before…

DONT GET RID OF RAAT-BOY!!HE IS MICKEY MOUSES EVIL TWIN!XD :O :D

Big snake notwithstanding, I want nuthin to do with Rat!

Trading deadline’s passed.

Pun alert! There’s a :“spooky” pun in “Mother Goose & Grimm” today. http://www.seattlepi.com/comics-and-games/fun/Mgoose/

I believe that Stephen will have to PAY to get rid of Rat. I’m sure the rest of the cast will gladly chip in. However, the market for one beer infused lab rat with a p$ssy attitude is questionable.

And thus Pastis advertises the shelter stories. Good on ya, Stephen!

Maybe a donation of Rat for scientific research ??

Awesome!

Is it a billion bucks, Goat?

We’ll also throw in a pair of Crocs……….

Way to go, Stephan!

LOL xxx

Tell him it is the runt of the litter of rat-looking cats LOL,

I don’t know of any squirrel that deserves less to die than any rat (yes, I AM rather bitter about certain kinds of gardening issues, why do you ask?)

It’ll take a little more than cash, Goat.

I like Mutts. Too bad I have to go to another site to read it.

If Rat moved to Mutts would that make both strips better?

It’s really hard to imagine Pearls without Rat.

A moving initial message, a nice hybrid comic, a funny punchline … what’s not to love here?

So close!!
