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 thinks he’s Chief Nockahoma.

I thought his comprehension was great. He realized he was about to get hit with a rubber hammer. And his reflexes seem fine, too.

I’d say Satch has great reflexes. He really Bucky’d the trend there!
His comprehension is fine,too…he knew what was coming!

Cat vs. fly. Superb comparison of relative reflexes.
Dogs? Not even close.
Why is that? Attitude!

Satchel, do it again. I don’t think Bucky figured it out yet. Practice makes perfect.

I wish Satchel would be allowed to do more of this to Bucky.

Looked to me like Satch slapped the snot right outta that stinky cat, but n-o-o-o-o: Last panel, Bucky’s full of it again; perhaps a little more thoughtful, but snotty, nonetheless.
