Combo Meal
I don’t know about you, but my cat does this to me all the time. It doesn’t matter what I’m eating, she wants part of it. You’d think that sharing your meal with your pet would be a great way to lose weight. Sadly, that myth is busted.
I wanted to try a different look for today’s comic. Just, you know, cause. I didn’t make it easy for Paul, but I knew he could make it work. In the end I think he did a really nice job putting it all together.
Thanks for hanging out with us this week. We hope you were entertained. Have a great weekend.

Yep. My cat begs for anything in my hands. “No, you don’t get to eat spaghetti.” “No, you don’t get coffee.” “No, you don’t get to eat thread.” “No, you hate bananas.”
I let her sniff all of the things I know she hates. I never give her my food. I clean up enough puke already.
Yeah, we let her sniff our food too. Most of the time she doesn’t like it and walks away. Once in a while, however, she likes it and we let her have some. We’re suckers for a cute kitty.
Just don’t give her chocolate, raw onion or garlic, or any avocado. I think that’s the big no list.
I really enjoyed this format!
Yeah, I keep the chocolate to myself.
Thanks Karyl!
My cats have no interest in my food, except CHICKEN!
And then, only when it’s raw. Cooked? Meh…
I learned something from this today: I did not know avocado was supposed to be toxic for pets.
When I was younger, I had a friend who tended an avocado orchard in the hills outside town and when a fruit would fall his dogs were off like streaks and would return with green smiles. I never noticed any problems with them during the time I knew them. Their coats were gorgeous and lustrous from the oils of the fruit. I wonder now if they developed problems later…
It’s amazing what they end up liking. Don’t leave your Dunkin Donuts out around our house!
Especially if I’m visiting! Nom nom nom.
This strip is so representative of our Poodle Dixie.
I was late coming home the previous night only to find out that one of the cats had managed to steal my bacon wrapped meaty thing… Filet whatever. If I knew what cat did it there would be hell to pay… I suspect it was a group effort in eating it though, up until the dog smelled it, came over, and gobbled it up, as most of the cats are too small to eat the entire thing, yet there was no trace of it.
