Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for December 17, 2015

What about the cat?

I’m a bit nervous, too.

Susan get into your Mouse Costume and talk some sense into Carter. We all know he isn’t going to listen to Sylvia.

Apropos of nothing:Where was this comic yesterday?

Is it a rat terrier?

Gosh, Rose…I’m already IN my mouse costume.

Has everybody forgotten….it was just two weeks ago that this came up before….

Carter and I both have Rodent Club every other week, on Wednesday or Thursday night…. depending on which night one of the local pizza parlors is having a good special on an extra large double cheese.

He’s just taking a moment to water the plants before he leaves.I’m sure Sylvia asked him to do it….I have no idea why she gets so agitated if he puts on his rat suit first.

I think it’s just a little overreaction… a case of misplaced …. um….. rodentophobia…. or something..

“Misplaced,” because Carter isn’t really a rat.Well, as far as I know….cos I don’t know him that well.

And all the nice folks down at the Ballard Center for the Slightly Off Kilter all say in unison: “Welcome Back Carter!”.

No. Six… if you drop by….

Thanks for the compliments yesterday…

I hope you’ll read my reply (or replies) to you about the parties…. here, and/or on A.C., both yesterday as well.

:)

That’s the whole point. The dog’s been digging up the garden. The authorities might take notice of the… fertilizer. And Carter has found a way to make them look the other way.

ifn ya Luk closely, ya seas that’s Miss Millie Mayhem…she bin layin low sints fufus and spike, you noe…well…less jus say… Carter had to turn the hose on the boyz fun…

So, let me get this straight — the cat ratted on Carter?

What is so wrong with a man channeling his inner mouse.Then again….what is right with it??

And the cat is drooling, trying to get out here and eat you, because he thinks you are the Christmas present he asked for last year!

Linguist…yes, he’s watering the Rodentdendra and the Rhorodentra… and, of course, the gRats.He doesn’t really have to water the wild mousetard….. or the Porcu Pine tree…. just watch out for its sharp needles.Perkycat…. a kilter is a hard thing to stay on, in this neighborhood.I think there’s a tilting air all about.

The face on that dog is hilarious! (Had to put my glasses on to get a good look though. Not as young as I used to be.)
