Marmaduke by Brad Anderson for September 17, 2022

The cunning plan of a master “napper”.

Yeah!!!! What jasonsnakelover – wrote!!!

Admit it! You just don’t want to cook, Marm would certainly hear and smell the delivered food, so order extra

One of our dogs would get really excited whenever I’d start up the grill. He’d “guard” the grill from our other dog, not letting her near it until I’d finished grilling. We always cooked an extra patty each for them. I had been just cooking one, cutting it up and splitting it between them but he’d get indignant as if he knew he was only getting 1/2 a patty.

Marm will smell the takeout and hear the doorbell

And you beat Marmaduke to the delivery boy…

Won’t work he will hear you on the phone.

Best excuse ever!

I can relate to this. When my cats are asleep in the bedroom, if I’m in the kitchen and I have to open a pull-top can for something I’m cooking, I actually step outside the back door to pull the top off (crazy, I know). Otherwise the cats will somehow hear the sound and come running for what they think is their supper.

Smart planning and action, Marmaduke.

And who will o get it?

That reminds me of my mother’s pet dog, Brandy. No matter where she was in the house, she’d be there in an instant when the fridge door was opened! ;-p

I’m betting Marm would wake up the instant they mentioned a food item on the phone!
