In the preface to the Complete Calvin and Hobbes Collection, he said that he based Hobbes’ behavior on his pet cat. Unfortunately, I’ve forgotten the cat’s name.
How did Hobbes, a stuffed tiger, manage to knock Calvin down and get him really messy? I know there are explanations, however it seems like a bit of a Toy Story thing, where Hobbes is alive…

You can tell Watterson really has cats; Hobbes behaves completely realistically in these strips.

This is not an episode of “Road Runner”—there, Wiley E. Coyote would have the look on Calvin’s face in panel 8.
