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.

Rob’s just fanning the flames of Bucky’s stupidity …

My advice also. The duct tape harness catches on door handles.

I bet you’ll be seeing it on QVC in six weeks.

Yeah, I wonder if Darby is on permanent vacation and they are just repeating all of his strips?

I have not worn a wallet in my back pocket for 30 years, I have a bad back and by wearing my wallet in my front pocket it helps so the pain is not as bad, it really works, try it.

Rob should check the wallet…odds are it is now empty, if Bucky handled it.

Yes I was thinking that very same thing when I read it this morning. I was also thinking, not this again, and rerun of a rerun. It was mildly funny the first time. So so the second and now the third, ah, not so much.

Sorry Dave, have to be a member to vote and I’m not. Besides, self-promotion is frowned upon here. Many have come, many have done, many have been excoriated for it.
