Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for July 04, 2021

Commenting on this is such a minefield, I was able to avoid it by making a remark about how much of a minefield it is.

And that rule is OUR fault somehow?

Cats are pointy too. As our cat insists on (ahem) pointing out to us on a daily basis. Unless we feed her and give her her SNAX and skritch her the right way…

BUMP*

Scritch*

“Purr.”

JAB*

OW!

“Oops.”

1. Kind of a pointed response from Phoebe is it not?

2. What I really like is how cats don’t recognize how sharp their claws are. They scratch us lightly thinking “Oh I’m barely getting my claws into your skin”.

In all seriousness and fairness, we sometimes scratch them to help them feel comforted and groomed so they probably think we’d like the same thing done to us. Cause you always hurt the one you love:-D.

POINTIST!

Surely that’s basic horn safety?

Thanks for pointing that out. It would have been awkward if I had horned in there…

Everything is acceptable, as long as a pointed horn is not used to “gently” touch you.

Pointillist

Hold on, I can fix this. I just need a bunch of tennis balls.

My cat is so amazing when he’s not trying to bite/scratch my toes

“Yup. Deal with it.”

(senses rudeness in this dialogue)

At least with Calvin, he actually has a tiger that he can pet when he’s in the mood for it.

Oh come on, pet her….

Way to go, Phoebe, for not caving to the Woke Monster on this one!

Who knew cats were better at asking for what they want than unicorns?

Hello Unicorn. You are beautiful, but not as beautiful as a cat. No soft pink pads on your feet, No quivering whiskers, no rumbling purr, poor Unicorn.

“bump”

Darnit, now you got me missing my cats.

You didn’t bump and rub against Phoebe, Marigold.

I was going to comment, but what’s the point…

Lovely artwork of the miniature panther.

Go get your own scritches, Marigold!
