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.

Double-teaming Bucky could be dangerous.

Cats also poop on your pillow when they’re angry, trust me.

Bucky boils with rage,
Hide the summer wardrobe, Rob!

Uh oh…Bucky is really mad. Watch out guys!
I had a cat who did her business in my shoes when she was upset. Threw out lots of shoes…maybe should have thrown out the cat!

Today the comments are better than the strip. However I do like the artistic rendering in panel 2.

I had a cat who was used to sleeping on my bed. One night I locked him out and the next day I found a huge poop right in the middle of my quilt. Cats are so meticulous about being clean, they only do that when they’re mad at their owners.

Let’s see: he has an ancient cat war cry, destructive yet short enough to keep a cat’s interest? Perhaps they call upon the name of a cat warrior of yore, a name which also foretold the state of your furniture …
CLAUDE!

Stop pissing her off and maybe she’ll stop pissing in your shoes.

Anyone take a guess at what the logo is on Rob’s hat?
