Ten Cats by Graham Harrop for December 30, 2019

Only Annie does not have a bed with her name on it.

Chesney will tell a tale of his imprisonment here against his will. No mention of being left unadopted because he is such a P.I.A. Still, I know some of you here just want to cuddle this bad boy. Do you really think he will let you?

I like hearing the back story of the Ten Cats again. And it’s good for people who are new to this strip to hear how the cats came into Annie’s life too.

Today is:

Bacon Day!

Falling Needles Family Fest Day

National Bicarbonate of Soda Day

In reply to QOA from yesterday – the people in our Christmas family photo are (left to right) m brother John, nephew Jake, brother Jim, me, brother Paul, nephew Dan, niece Michelle, nephew Dan’s daughter Joslyn, brother Daniel, niece Amy, Amy’s husband Justin and brother Daniels’ wife, Terre. Dan’s girlfriend took the picture. Nephew Dan is John’s son and Jake, Amy and Michelle are Jim’s kids. The cat in the Christmas tree is Oreo. That silly cat climbed the tree before I even put on the top piece and he was sitting there so regal looking, I had to grab my camera. But by the time I got the camera ready, he decided he was in trouble and he started climbing down. I wasn’t mad at him – he looked so gosh darn cute, I wanted the picture of him sitting up tall and proud. I even tried to get him to pose like that again, but he wouldn’t cooperate.

I went to log on tonite and TC wouldn’t let me. Said I had to upgrade to Premium to access my comics. Then it dawned on me… my bank issued everyone new cards (they got hacked) and GC tried to use my old # to pay my Premium yearly dues. I updated everything while I was at it.

I too am glad to see the back-story for new readers.

And Ches was probably found under barbed wire. Obviously he escaped from the Penitentiary!

Chesney, really???

The kitten was so traumatized by leaving the 72 year old woman who had owned her that the kitten ran under my recliner and spent two days huddled in a ball quivering in fear and wouldn’t come out until night to eat, drink, and use the litter box. That is no life for a kitten so I sent her back to the woman she knew and was comfortable with.

A ladder to the loading dock would be handy.

And what’s Annie’s backstory? How did she become kitty guardian? (Or warden, if you ask Chesney…)

Graham ran out of black for Woof in panel 4. He could have used some coal from C + J’s stockings to correct that.

Great pictures today. :)

Chesney needs a little help alright. Psychiatric help! (Sorry if that sounds mean.) On another note saw a sparrow fly by while out walking today. I also saw some little insects flitting about. It’s strange to see bugs out and about in December, but then again, it hasn’t been that cold where I live. Quite mild, actually.
