“I’m vaguely embarrassed by myself sometimes.” – Tom Stoppard

It’s baby food. You really don’t want to know more about the texture.

Trapped in a Tom Stoppard play? My that looks interesting.

Sophie has moved a few notches down on the mooch list.

Seems more like she’s trapped in a Chip and Dale cartoon.

@pschearer, not Chip and Dale. Considering how the cats are speaking, @detourjones has it right. They are related to Mac and Tosh, Chuck Jones’ very British and polite groundhogs.

So the kittens’ names are Rosencrantz and Guildenstern?

Almost makes me want to see a Tom Stoppard play again…almost.

Mack and Tosh,, say it quickly and you get Mackintosh a waterproof raincoat. Very British me thinks!

They’re cats…No matter what they’re named, they won’t come when you call them

Have names yet been established?

“All cats have three names ……”

Liked it better when it was just Sophie! And yes I love cats, as I had them myself.

Our Good Sam kitty came with a name, she had a diamond shapped marking on her back so she’s “Diamond” which considering I worked in the jewelry biz was a great name as far as I was concerned. But now I want to know if “Equinox” is half black and half white…….

thank you. Chewie and XQ are cute.

Brian, which one is Chewbacca, and which one is Equinox? Just wondering.

@ WarjoskiI’ve had many cats throughout my life and they all came when I called.

This reminds me that we don’t see Stoppard mentioned in nearly enough comic strips.
