Housecats are known to be aloof, but "cat-titude" reaches new heights in Get Fuzzy, the bitingly hilarious comic strip from cartoonist Darby Conley. Available daily and Sunday and appearing in 650 newspapers nationwide, Get Fuzzy is a wry portrait of single life, with pets. At the center of this warm and fuzzy romp is Rob Wilco, a single, mild-mannered ad executive and guardian of anthropomorphic scamps Bucky and Satchel. Bucky is a temperamental cat who clearly wears the pants in this eccentric household. Satchel is a gentle pooch who tries to remain neutral, but frequently ends up on the receiving end of Bucky's mischief. Together, this unlikely trio endures all the trials and tribulations of a typical family... more or less.
The National Cartoonists Society honored Get Fuzzy with a Reuben division award, naming it the Best Newspaper Comic Strip of 2002. There are a dozen Get Fuzzy compilation books published by Andrews McMeel: The Dog Is Not a Toy (House Rule #4); Get Fuzzy 2: Fuzzy Logic; Groovitude: A Get Fuzzy Treasury; The Get Fuzzy Experience: Are You Bucksperienced; Bucky Katt's Big Book of Fun; Blueprint for Disaster; Say Cheesy; Scrum Bums; Loserpalooza; I'm Ready for My Movie Contract; and Take Our Cat, Please; plus Get Fuzzy wall and box calendars.

This concept was even funny once, and it’s gone on way too long by now.

This is clearly Bucky’s clipboard… It’s made out of Zebrawood…

Hmmm….I think I know why Satch and Bucky are so………..strange……….Maybe it’s because Rob’s not rapped too tight either….And, Richard, your board?

Um, Rob, old boy—I think you need to get out more.
Go to Staples and buy two more clipboards. Sorted.

It’s just too “board” to move, that’s what it is.

What do you call a dog with no legs?
It doesn’t matter, he won’t come anyway.

No, no, that clipboard’s not dead, he’s… he’s resting! Remarkable clipboard isn’t it? Beautiful clip!

OMG, this is WAY too funny as this comic always is. I see it in the morning and think about it during the day from time and time and laugh again!

It’s not dead, it’s just pining for the stockroom!

I have three clipboards here on my desk, one named Saunders, one named Staples, and another named Monroe, but none named Clippy, Mr. Pincher or C-Baord so I guess that one isn’t mine. Oh and all of mine were named before I got them.

I never get board with this strip! Even when it goes slightly overboard!
