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.

Bucky’s first bubble describes a Robin Williams HBO concert about 10 years ago. I don’t think the Buckster will be nearly so funny.

Good Heavens – Satchell, as naturally_easy has commented, is becoming very astute and perceptive.

Zing! There are two kinds of people in the world, people who think there are only two kinds of people in the world, and those who don’t!

I had always heard that there were 10 types of people in the world.
Those who understood binary, and those who don’t!

@masterskrain
Very funny….
I wonder how many people really do understand binary. Probably no more than 11.

But there really are only two types of people in the world, those who agree with me and those who are wrong. vbg

But seriously, I like your perspective.

I once had a nightmare in binary. It was utterly terrifying, I swear I saw a ‘2’…

There are two types of people — those who separate people into 16 types, and those who don’t.

Yeah, there ARE only two groups in the world. Those who divide people into two groups and those who don’t…………

There are 3 types of people in the world: those who can count past 2 and those who can’t.
