Lio by Mark Tatulli for May 08, 2009

Cybil does have her way of making her wishes known.

When toe-biting does’t work…

I know a normally soft voiced cat who when she is the only one awake and is very hungry in the morning–will sound just like that in the hallway outside the bedroom doors! And you bet it gets your attention. Remember, dogs have family and cats have staff!!!

That’s why I recommend leaving dry kibble for my cats all the time…

Man, I don’t think I wanna know what she does when she wants to be let in.

It’s great that someone around the house can occasionally match Lio at ingenuity. (Wait–you thought it was Dad? Please…)

Been there.

I once had a cat who would first lightly touch my face, and if that didn’t work, he would reach over and gently bite my nose.

Obviously Cybil shares Lio’s sense of invention!

Great. My cat is on my desk and has seen this. Now I know what to expect tomorrow

My friends cats bite his ankles if he hasn’t gotten out of bed before they feel that they should be fed.

any relation to the cat in “pearls before swine’?

Let the record show, my cat Cybil came first, a whole year before, the cat in Pastis’ strip.

Love the sound effect in the last panel. That’s exactly how moist pet food sounds as it dumps out of the can.

Mark– Thanks for clearing that up. Dastardly kittens seem to be becoming a trend in comic strips nowadays.

Well at least it is not as bad as when Cybil strapped bombs to himself and would blow himself and lio away if lio didn’t feed him. But on the other hand having constant ringing for the next month or two in your ear is probably worse.

Too Funny!

This explains the shape of Liō’s hair.

Garfield could learn a thing or two here.
