I was just thinking about this strip today, wondering when we’d see it! There are many lovely moments in this – including the Toddler’s sock inching off in panel 3 – but my favorite has to be the Woman cuddling Puck in the last panel. Poor Pucky is so embarrassed, and the Woman is so comforting! I love it.
Sunday Funday!!!! Ok, the Mega-Orb gives so much, I’d like to give back to the Orb, but of course, I can’t do it alone. Since soon we will no longer need a spoiler zone, I think if we had a designated spot each week for folks to share something fun, great news, a funny story, a joke, anything. This is not to prescribe that this is the only place or time to do it, if you have great news or something to share at anytime, by all means DO so!
Just like the spoiler zone, whoever thinks of it first on a Sunday should start it, even if you don’t have something to share!!!

Ah, yes, the joys, trials and tribulations of toilet training! Poor embarrassed Pucky, only wanting a little privacy to do his business, with the toddler watching his every move.
My bronchitis continues to run merrily amok, with me trying to hork up a lung every once in a while. Lots of fun. Still taking all the meds the pharmacist recommended, though, and there does seem to be a bit of improvement.
I read that cats (and dogs) have an internal compass that causes them to prefer to face northwards when they “go”.Orbiters, do your kitties “do” it that way? Mine “do”.… (And will someone please write a story in which this is used as a direction-finding device by someone who’s lost?)
I agree with ekw555 & Nuliajuk – an alligator potty would scare the $#!+ out of me!
I’ve never understood the need for potty chairs. My 3 younger sibs & I all learned to use the regular toilet by sitting backwards & straddling the seat, & I had my son do the same. No need to dump & clean the potty chair afterwards, & when you’re out somewhere & the kid needs to use the bathroom it’s easy!
Both my boys prefer covered litter boxes. One is completely enclosed as a piece of furniture (fave), the one in the laundry room has a translucent cover. If you walk in there when it’s being used, they immediately stop, give an insulted yowl and stalk out! LOL
What’s this potty privacy the Woman speaks of? At least three from our castle clowder swirl about my legs, or try to lay on my feet, to stare up at me. I guess they are making sure I cover my mess by “scratching" enough "litter” on top of it… lol

haha, just a couple of days ago, the sentence, “CN News. Yo, is that a sticker?” ran through my mind. One of my faves.
Colorado Expat over 5 years ago
Yeah, I think Puck would prefer being left alone to getting a sticker…

Blushing Puck. Too adorable!

I totally agree with Beatrix’s assessment of the situation (carrying litter in your pants, ewwww)!

Careful, Kid. You don’t want to traumatize kitties about the litter box.

Aw Pucky and his embarrassed fangs.

Burt gives us chyron hope that diaper poop is almost gone … and then dashes it when he remembers round two to come with the Baby.

Is that book Beatrix is waving an actual thing? What a happy, smiling roll of TP.

Ok where’s Robin? Alright alright I’ll say it. An alligator potty? Some thing is definitely DOOMED!

frankly, I would find an alligator potty to be disturbing.
what if those powerful jaws were to snap shut while I was sitting there???

Now I want a potty shaped like an alligator’s mouth for myself.

I have always thought of taping the newspaper on the wall by the litter box so cats have something to read.

Puck clinging to the woman for help is so adorable. Almost as adorable as Lupin’s sticker desire.

And Lupin in the same pose as the toddler in the final panel.
