Lio by Mark Tatulli for February 06, 2012

Cartoonists hate when that happens!

Was the cat, Cybil in 3-D?

Shouldn’t the sign be in Spanish too?

The cat’s name is Felix. You could look it up.

Just sounded cool. Around here, most of our fold-out “Wet Floor” signs are in Spanish as well. Plus many department store area labels.

I know what it feels like when you lose a faithful companion cat. Please get another one, from a shelter, they need homes so badly.

What a great way to memorialize your cat.

Today is TuDaze’s Last Adventure! Bless the kitty. Bless the Tatullis.

I think it is a tribute to his cat. Notice on the bottom left. “In loving memory of our beloved Todaze – RIP”

I would be lost without my varmint.

Much, much cleverer than saying the dog ate it.

Here’s to Todaze, Mark. May your buddy rest in peace.

Faux paws.

Condolences on the loss of your cat. Ours is Oliver and though he’s getting old and is starting to lose his sight, he still gives us grudging affection and a few laughs every day. I love your tribute to Tudaze.

Especially when you’re trying to work, right?

See… this is why I like dogs better.

what’s bugging me is what’s the brand name of that ink..

So sorry for your loss, Mark…

Presume the cat is ToDaze (? Topaze, not real sure) as noted in the first (only) pannel. Indeed, Mark, regret your loss.

I’m so sorry for your loss. I’m sure we would all like to know your cat’s name (we are not all reading it the same) and meaning. At the suggestion of others, I’ve looked it up in several sources (Spanish) and not found it. Blessings.

I didn’t see the memorial text first time through, my condolences Mark

The cat’s name was TuDaze (for Two Days). He was initially a cat we rescued from the streets of Philadelphia and we were only going to keep him for two days before passing him along to the animal shelter. But, we fell for the lug, and two days stretched into 13 years. We miss him terribly.

Most sorry to hear about your loss. You’re in our prayers.

So sorry for your loss Mark. They are like family. Maybe another rescue can ease the pain.

poor kitty. R.I.P.

Paws for effect

My sincerest condolences Mr. Tatulli and family.

Mark: Sorry for your loss. We lost our Tiger over a year ago, but about 2 months after his passing I took the wife to the Humane Society where we found our sweet gray& white little girl,“Muffin”.

my sincerest condolences mark. pets take a piece of our heart when it’s time to say goodbye.

sorry for your loss, mark

My sympathies, Mark.

On the other hand, the comic is fantastic. I love the sense of perspective.

Beautiful comment. Mark, my prayers are with you and your family for your loss.

Anyone notice that the lid to the ink bottle is on?

R.I.P.
