Gasoline Alley by Jim Scancarelli for September 03, 2024

Try not to wake the readers when you retire. …./s

And tomorrow begins a new chapter in the life of Gasoline Alleyvillians.

A full stmach will do that! Sweet dreams!

There’s a serious period shortage in Gasoline Alley (supply chain issues), so Gertie’s having to make do with exclamation points.

Now let’s hope Mee-Meow doesn’t dream he’s in the land of Garfield.

Fourth wall broken in panel 2!

Factoid – Mee-Meow is a rarity inasmuch as she is female. Eight out of ten orange cats are usually male.

It’s starting to feel like an old Mad Magazine article: “If Cartoon Cats Acted Like Real Cats.”

And now,back to the forest and “Bear Baby”,who was found last year—-any luck on the boy’s parents(I hope not!)

Today’s Curmudgeron pretty much hits the nail on the head. Two weeks of getting a cat to eat his dinner. Holy cow.

“If you find the emotional intensity of Gil Thorp too much, may I recommend Gasoline Alley? In the latest plot developments, Walt’s new cat didn’t want to eat her food, so Gertie got a new flavor and now she’s eating again. This took two weeks!”

Now would be a good time for Walt & Gert to make an appointment with the vet for Mee-Meow’s first checkup, then schedule another for her spay.

Yep. That’s a tiger, alright.
