Monty by Jim Meddick for November 25, 2012

Where did moondog buy his bed? Insitution surplus?

Thanks a heap, Pilsner! Now that you’ve proved your point, go to bed!

Moondog can hear a worm wiggling?

My fathers cat once brought home a live chipmunk played with it for a little while then lost it/got bored. I then had to tear the second floor apart trying to find the damn thing who was quite alive and well. Finally traped it in an old soda box and took it back outside. After that and a few other incedents the cat was kicked out of the house.

I love all the details in Meddick’s strip. …not to mention Moonie wearing his sunglasses in bed at night.

My cockatoo, Cuddles took a nibble of a worm from my shovel once while I was gardening. My Timneh, Fitzroy enjoyed chasing seed bugs and eating most of the body (the bugs ate seeds out there for wild birds, so probably tasted good to him).

I thought the wiggle was just a happy tail shake from Pilsner ;-)

Pilsner – you can make your point – Outside! .Knew of a cat that liked to catch garter snakes, bring them inside and play. When bored, she would sit on the snake to keep it in place. Then play some more. …Friend’s cat goes after anything with wings. Dragonflies, butterfiles, house flies, birds.

When we get back to spring I will be watching the marvelous web cams at Cornell U at the Red Tail Hawk nest. Chippies are one of the favorite foods for those hungry babies! I love to see the pigeons devoured tho’ ;-D

IT SHOULD HAVE SAID " I’M STRICTLY A CATCHPHRASE AND RELEASE GUY"
