Here’s a shameless plug… for supporting me on Patreon. Forgive me.
Over at Patreon, I discuss the origins of this cartoon… where did the wrestling thing come from? Why does Ella come to the rescue? If you give just two dollars a month, you get the backstory on R&R pages, inspiration for images, and a behind the scenes on storyline. Patreon makes it simple to give by setting up automatic withdrawals… it really is cool.
Okay… the commercial is over. Thank you for reading (and giving… if you already give).
Yep, Ella licked ’em, if you will pardon the crude reference.
Pardoned.
Love this!
Thank you, Ian… this makes me happy. I love the colors how they turned out.
Not surprising; kitties will try to kill anything smaller than themselves (and sometimes they’ll take a chance at their owners)!
You, having cat-owner experience would know. But, as I recall, your cats are a tad on the evil side, yes?
Ella to the rescue! You really k(l)icked their asses!
Indeed… she’s a champion Licker and butt-kicker.
Our hero!
Ella has not been the same cat that Twinkie has been (over on Squid Row). I think Randie has learned to sorta like cats… At least the cute hero-ey type.
Guard Kitty is in your dreams, tackling all your problem gnomes! Time to buy her a new toy.
If she’s like my cat, the expensive cat toys are pushed aside for the homemade foil balls and string.
I never said it had to be expensive! Foil burger wrappers were a favorite of my neighbour’s cats. They smelled like food AND made crinkly sounds!
Is she back? Is she functioning? (Well, as much as usual …)
And I am reminded of “the Dangers of Ivan” from the old (1980’s) comic “Reid Fleming, World’s Toughest Milkman”. If you recall, in the fictional soap opera within the comic Ivan had spent the last six years in a coma, but Reid still watched religiously.
But Randi is being a lot more fun than Ivan, what with gnomemares and semi-coherent speech and dreamy backgrounds. She can take more time to heal.
Tough Milkman? are milkmen tough? Sounds like an interesting comic book.
Well… gnomemares are terribly scary (for anybody, I imagine)… and we shall see just how quickly she bounces back.
My cats are always protecting me from invisible monsters.
This is GOOD! Cats have that 6th sense, don’t they?… It is within their power to observe and protect (I guess that makes them ‘cop kitties’. They also seem to know the future… but that’s a whole other storyline!
There is nothing like having both cats suddenly sit up and star at the door; of course, two of my cats gave us a good scare years ago. We lived out in the country back then and we came home to find voices coming from the bedroom. We almost called the cops, but then I recognized it as a talk radio host. It was strange as the radio was set to an FM NPR station, but was changed to an AM conservative station. Strange. I called the owner, he had not gone in. I changed the locks, but it happened again, several times. I was there one day and out female jumped on the table, but the radio with her next jump, and somehow changing it to AM and the dial to another position. My cats were Gaslighting us.
I really need to stop typing these on my phone. Sorry about the typos; they stare at the door, etc.
