Hey, cat people! There’s a new web comic on go.comics. It’s called How to Cat, by Lucas Turnbloom. The early panels feature predictable cat foibles, but Lucas has an unusual take on them. Plus, I like how he draws kitty cats. I think you’ll enjoy checking it out. We’ll see how long he can keep it up. Good luck, Lucas!

Happy Washington’s Birthday (22 Feb 1732-1799). Today’s A&J is neat. And today’s 9 Chickweed Lane is “Awwww!” Peace,
Today the UComics site has a rerun strip from 2016. A nice one, but still a rerun. I don’t recall seeing this before.
Are you on vacation?
“We’ll see how long he can keep it up. Good luck, Lucas!”
Thirty-four years, perhaps? Good luck with that!
Just wanted you to know that I completely relate to your cartoon strip, I cut it out & give to my wife & she laughs saying to close to home, and we are dog people not cat. Hope you keep writing, Jeff Meyer.
Thank you, Jeffrey! I hope so, too.
Since everyone has apparently left the building, I suppose I can drop this one off here.
Q. Why did the cows return to the marijuana field?
A. It was the pot calling the cattle back.
Overheard at Steals & Deals:
Jackie: “Baby, can you find the first aid kit for me?”
Ghost: “I have my blowout kit in the truck. Blowout Kit laughs at puny First Aid kit. Blowout Kit is equipped to handle anything from a spurting artery to a sucking chest wound.”
Jackie: “I just need a bandaid. These shoes are giving me a blister on my foot.”
Ghost: “Oh. OK.”
Jimmy, thank you for this cartoon! I just re-read it again and again and laugh again.
@Nancy Kirk in AZ – in reply to your comment a couple of days ago:
I, too, was looking for a way to see comments (and cartoons) from previous days – I admit it, I only end up in The Village once or twice a week. When I loaded up the page for the current day, there were no page numbers or “previous” links on it. But when I clicked on the link “By Jimmy Johnson” at the top of the page, I got a page with those links. Hope this works for you.
I looked at the cat cartoon Jimmy recommended and I think it looks like fun. My sister is a great cat lover and I think she will get a kick out of it too. Thanks Jimmy!
Under “9 Comments” – or whatever is the current amount – I see numbers “1 2 … 1847 Next” printed. Those numbers, or “Next”, take you back one day at a time.
The younger eaglet at Berry College has died. The Decorah North nest has an egg, possibly two by this time.
‘LOL’ doesn’t cover it.
I Laughed. Out Loud!
