Mother Goose and Grimm by Mike Peters for May 15, 2024

Most cats would find a bat flapping around their house THE MOST INTERESTING OF ALL THE EVERS

And the floor of the bat cave is covered in guano.

Wasn’t Bat Guano his assistant in the Bat Cave???!!!

Better in the cave than in the Bellfrey.

Even more gross, there is a Robin!

That’s not a bat I’m just glad to see you.

That’s also not a cave it’s my tights.

“That’s not my cave you’re groping in. And that’s not a bat you’re feeling. It’s not called my tool belt for nothing, you know.”

Is… is that a metaphor?

Hey Batman: Cat got your tongue?

I thought it was going to be something about a hairball or garfield

What do you expect from Batman?

Does he call it a cave, a bat cave, a man cave or does he just call it home?

Just be careful that the bat doesn’t have rabies.

Is that it, or that he has Bat-breath?

“No, there isn’t. I’m here with you…”

Isn’t he trying to get his “bat” into her “cave?” Maybe he didn’t out enough “pine tar” on it.

My best guess is that she means there’s a booger hanging from his nose. But she shouldn’t be able to tell from that angle.

“Do cats eat bats? … Do bats eat cats?” – Alice in Wonderland

There is a book titled “Bat Bomb” by Jack Couffer about an actual mission to develop a weapon during WWII that woud release bats with little incendiary devices over Japan. The idea was they would roost in buildings and explode. A different type of bomb prevented this concept from ever actually happening. A wit at University of Texas Press gleefully suggest the subtitle of “Guano over Tokyo.”
