   If that’s what Carmen names her cats, I can see why they don’t have kids.

   Marg and Cpt Colorado, I was also wondering. hope all is well in his realm. Was looking thru some old stuff this morning and realized it’s been a long time since we’ve heard from him.

   We’re all on the same page. I was also wondering about Mr. Tubbsbottl just yesterday. He always had the most interesting comments. I hope he’s back soon.

   Love the cats’ conversation.

   didn’t Mr. Tubbsbotti say that he and the Mrs. were going on a month vacation? That was about 2 weeks ago. I thought at the time - WOW wish I could have a month of vacation. And Cleo– Cats can talk just like Dogs can talk………….

   I can’t think of any cat I’ve known with so elaborate a name (not counting show cats).

   My cats over the years have always had one main name with many variations. Thus “Elsa” (named for the famous lioness of “Born Free”) was also El, Elsie, Ellie, E-girl, and just E. “Juggernaut” (so named because he was unstoppable as a kitten) was Jug, J.R. Naut, Mr. Naut, J.R., Jaybird, and just Jay. “Merlin” (named for such magical powers as the ability to instantly disappear) was Merl, Merlie, Lee-mer, and Merlie Lemur (from his Buddha-like pose that resembled a National Geographic photo of a Madagascar lemur sunning itself).

   But my GF’s recently deceased (sad, so sad!) sweetheart of a Manx was just Max.

   So I’m a cat person and proud of it!

    Cats, I am with you - it’s a strange world indeed!
    I love the name - Fuzzywinkle Dumpling Truffle, the Third - wow! sounds Regal + edible.
    My daughter has a cat who was bred for show but was sold as a pet because one of her paws was not perfectly laced. She named her “Chocolat-Truffles

    I think it was “The Far Side” one time had Dog or Cats Introducing themselves with their huge long involved names and finishing with but the humans call me Spot, or something like that. Very funny and I saved that one for years framed over the Dogs dishes.

    I ‘inherited’ my ex-wife’s Burmese. She had named her Sandra. No name for a cat…it quickly became Sammer shortened over time to Sam. Sam was something special and I know she will be waiting for me when I cross over.

    This is such a Mr. Tubbsbottl kind of strip today.

    Two of my cats are nicknamed…Sir Floofy, Earl of Cryington and Squire Snarksalot.

    My cats all have plain names and then they all get nicknames. Abby, Scout and Holly are Bright Eyes, Soft Paws and Trouble.

    Greeneyedtxn, I remember Yukoner saying that they were going on a month vacation, but I didn’t see the post from Mr. Tubsbotti.

    Greeneyedtxn, I know cats can talk, but I didn’t think they could in Poncho’s world.

    Cats only talk to other cats.
    Why should they waste effort on inferior species?
