Somebody probably already pointed that out, but most cats can't actually be carried like that, because their body is very flexible (and not stiff as a dog's) ; so if one carries a cat this way without putting a hand under the rear paws to maintain the cat, said cat will likely slip through the arms and fall on the floor. Sorry, cat nerd here and thinking about that every time I see someone holding Hercules this way >.<
mrrp is exActly what a Maine Coon would say!
It would appear Yay and I are in agreement WRT the efficacy of tomato juice for de-skunking.
Yeah I don't know why anyone would still be trying tomato juice now that we have something simple and cheap and available that actually works.
Polydactyl cats are awesome. Once upon a time I'd had to euthanize my cat and decided that, while I wanted another, I wasn't in a hurry. I decided to visit the local pound every Saturday and adopt the next "mitten kitten" I saw. I knew they came through once in a while, but figured the probability was low enough that it would take a while. So of course one showed up within two weeks. I was second in line for adoption, but the first people never showed, so less than a month later we were blessed by a polydactyl tortoiseshell I named Melissa. ...No particular reason for the name. Just seemed to fit.
2nd panel blep.
Does make me wonder if the various bodies in the Yay group consciousness have different quirks - and if this one is a little tsundere.
Yay’s eyes are so sad. 😿
My cat loves to look up at me when I'm holding her, just like Hercules is doing to Yay in the last panel.
I would never carry a cat like that, so I wouldn't know.
I recently watched Kiki's Delivery Service for the first time in a long while and so I just now realized Elliot shares some characteristics with the hulking muscular inarticulate baker in that movie. No wonder that he was picturing Brun as Kiki way back when she first appeared at the bakery.
Elliot's quads for dayz
Herc strikes me as one of those cats that's inexplicably chill with whatever bullshit you throw their way. Yay and Melon could dress him up in all kinds of outfits and he'd just be like "....kay."
Maine Coons for the win! Check the beast of mine: https://www.instagram.com/p/B-mCyKrAf7G/?igshid=kpyhug0jy1ij
AAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!! <3 <3 <3
I wonder where Melon got to... rolling in Elliot’s laundry hamper?
So close!
So, Yaylliot had found their adopted son. Everything is going as foreseen.
Used to have a Main Coon mix years ago. When he got hungry during the night, he woke me up by staring at me. Always nice to wake up early in the morning with that giant ginger head centimeters from my face, looking veeerrry hungry!
big boi for a big boy
Part Maine Coon, part koala, part pterodactyl?
I'm so glad you've made Elliot a main character, he is the greatest <3
an adequat cat
It’s clear in the last frame that Hercules knows.
See?! She was thinking of dinner!
And he's perfectly fine with being carried out the door.
And they would have gotten away with it to except for those meddling kids.
This is proof: CATS ship with everything and everyone. Change my mind.
Attempted fluffnapping! For SHAME
The real shame is that they didn't get away with it!
For anyone who likes Maine Coons, here are photos of our late Maine Coon, Grendel: https://flickr.com/photos/jnl/albums/736135
Don't get me wrong he's a darling, but weren't Maine Coons supposed to look like Ron Perlman? :P
I have friends who named their Maine Coon Brenda Starr.
Heh, heh, heh...I now so want to see the buddy comedy movie of these two together. A genuine Nice Man, a NOT-nice AI cluster, and the cat that helps them all out.
Sounds a bit like Knight Rider, but better :)
Yes, but you must grant Yay unannounced visitation rights.
it's the only kind of visitation they know
The extra toes are a strain that has been in Massachusetts for centuries. "Boat people" -- Tories who supported the legitimate government of King George III who had to flee from Boston -- one of their houses is across the street from mine -- took many such cats to Nova Costa. But there are still some such cats here in Boston. I've seen them.
Also the Hemingway cats, though they may have come from Boston originally.
Yay is me when I see kitty.
My cat also has extra toes, I believe they call them Polydactyl.
Where is Melon?? Trying to steal Elliot's stinky clothes??
I think more likely trying to roll in them. (I don't see her as being criminally inclined. I could be wrong, I believed Corpse Witch was just misunderstood for the LONGEST time.)
LOL- busted!!!
Yay is HOOKED.
Now, did he forget? Or did he "forget"?
Like the proverbial elephant, Yay NEVER forgets. Unless they want to...
I have a Hercules, but he's got an orange tail and a lil' orange spot on his noggin
Sounds gorgeous, George. :)
Had a childhood friend who name their fat cat "Flabby Tabby".
Mrrp!
oh he CHONKY
That look on Yay's face. "Darn! Almost got away with him..."
They likes the cat
Hercules: ‘Drat, almost got away with this robot...’
I had an enormous polydactyl Maine coon once and he was the sweetest most magnificent cat I have ever owned.
Maine Coons have a wonderful temperament and are gorgeous in the bargain. Also huge.
was Yay about to commit an accidental CATNAPPING
Yay doesn't do _anything_ accidentally.
