The kid blew up a cat? How gross.

I’d say the cat was a mad bomber that the kid was trying to defuse

Love the strip, but the cat part was over the top. Need to rethink harming animals, pets.

Great advice. Thank you Neil; thank you Gavin. (I’m agreeing about the cat part – didn’t need that.)

From this, it looks like the message is that when something bad happens as a direct consequence of you being foolish, instead of working on what led you to do the foolish thing, you should take it out on the world by inflicting upon it the worse sort of bad art. .(Except the cat one. I see there were some explosives left over. She should have used them to create some “art.”)

torturing and killing cats not really a subject for a cartoon of this nature.

Don’t blame Gavin about the cat. It’s in Neil Gaiman’s writing. Neil was being absurd and Gavin was following along.
