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.

Like that would stop Bucky.

OMG Are these two even on the same wavelength? Obviously not. However, it does bring to mind some of the delightfully nonsensical conversations I would have with my boys.

Someone would make a statement and the next person would take one word from it and make a totally different statement from it.

For example: I’m going to park the car. We’re driving to the park. I’m not driving you anywhere. Anywhere is fine with me. You had to pay a fine?

Awe, who’s a good boy? Who’s a good boy? Is Satchel a good boy? Yes, Satchel’s a good boy! Who’s a good boy? Satchels a good boy….Head rub, doggie treat…

X ray vision is highly entertaining, but there are seriously times you want to be able to turn it off
Like at Wal-Mart

These two just seem to think along different planes. The planes are always perpendicular to each other, even though they are wavy, intersecting again and again, but always at right angle to each other. Kinda ink the Dems and the Repubs.
