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.

I dunno, Bored George may just take you out to relieve the boredom. I wouldn’t trust him either. Now Lazy George………

Then there’s Boy George … he’d probably be good for a grapple.

By George, any of them could make a monkey out of Bucky!

Yes, curiosity eventually killed the cat, but for all we know the cat may have maimed many “pinkos” in the interim.

Well to comment on Curious George he may quote Denzel Washington in saying “King Kong aint got nothing on me” so if I were Bucky I would think twice on challanging him. Now I am still wondering what happened to the Rat strip. It left us all up in the air to what happened?

Let’s pretend this is an intentional flashback, heightening the drama of our rat insurgency.

To quote Pinkish, “not again”. But there have been many blogs, strips over the years that I’ve loved (and bit the dust), and I am very reluctant to “demand” more, new content from someone who has provided me with much pleasure over the years. I’m glad we get what we get, as much as I’d like to get away from the muppets storyline.

Flag a bad post and move on.
You look rather foolish all huffed up with nothing left to offend.

Curious George is called a monkey in the cartoons about him, so I would suppose he is one.
