Peanuts by Charles Schulz for August 04, 2022

time for Charlie Brown to go to the hardware store in order to fix Snoopy’s house

oh Snoopy, why do you stir the pot with that cat nextdoor?

This does raise a valid question: What DOES Spike eat? He’s thin as a rail, and he lives in the desert with almost no visable food in site. Does he eat buzzard? Cactus fruit? Needles? The mind boggles.

Stupid south China tiger who lives next door.

And this was long before Alf.

Snoopy, you and Charlie Brown need to reread the “Three Little Pigs”. The one pig who made his house out of bricks still had a house at the end of the story. Don’t you think that you might make your house out of something stronger than wood?

“Angry cat who slashes doghouses”…we know a thing or two because we’ve seen a thing or two!

You don’t want to mess with a cat that can do that from next door.

To be fair, is there any interaction with that cat that wouldn’t result in just SLASH?

The cat’s name is WWII

World War II strikes again!

you’d think he’d learn from the last few times.

that is one wicked cat

Don’t boast about your brother, Snoopy. It could get you into bigger trouble than before.

I don’t think that is a housecat – not with the size of the swipe mark anyway

Snoopy, now you ad that spire to your dog house that you have always wanted to build.

Hope it didn’t slash the Van Gogh.

Spike is kinda the pacifist type.Nice tribute to Schulz in MUTTS today.

Schulz always said it was a mistake to give Frieda a limp cat she always carried around(“What do you SAY to cats?”) because he didn’t think he could draw cats well.That’s why “the monster” is always off-panel.

One of my four rules for teachers, btw: Never Threaten. (It’s almost always counterproductive)

Don’t antagonize World War II, Snoopy. You know how vicious they are

We had a cat like that in my neighborhood when I was a squirt . . . terrified all the pooches!

I hope Snoopy has homeowner’s insurance!

How is Spike at carpentry?

When Spike DID get there, how long do you think the cat next door spent laughing?
