Kliban's Cats by B. Kliban for September 27, 2022

The paws that refresh?

Curses!

Mungojerrie, Rumpleteaser, Riddlebone? But not McCavity, his pawprints have never been in the files of Scotland Yard.

I need to check if that print matches with the ones on the hood of my car.

Macavity and Moriarty left paw prints on our car in the garage (back in SF).

He’s not an orange qat.

Somehow, I’m not surprised he’s in trouble.

Caught the cat burglar!!

“Retract your claws, you keep shredding the ink pad!”

Busted!

She ratted me out!

I only ate a few bites…

Bad kitty.

Kitty got caught doing what kitty’s do.

Purrloined…

An entire shelf of extremely collectable art pottery.

Cat applying for food stamps?

Cat pawprinting is a very old procedure.

Its the innocent look on his face that is so infuriating.

The catnip made me do it!
