Fait Accompli

I got Bologna in the summer of 2013 a little after Hey Cat #1: Be Here Meow went to print. I had a few comics for the second book at this point, but I realized this kitten would change the series. Was Hey Cat about to jump the shark??

Fortunately the two cats got along well & I was able to continue making the comics with the same damn formula I had put together by this point. Things didn’t really change too much until the next summer when Jessica & I moved to Austin. This is all documented on the Hey Cat website & in Hey Cat #2: Extremely Loud & Incredibly Annoying.

But what I hadn’t documented in the comics was picking Bologna up! Here is that comic documentation.

Scraps

What can I say? I’m a permissive cat guy. It goes against the nature of a cat to impose human bullshit on it. I like to feed the cats scraps! Not a ton, I don’t want them to get sick. But Baddie ever since Baddie spent time as a street cat, she’s been wild about trying to get our food when Jessica & I are eating.

Not too long ago we heard commotion in the kitchen & saw Baddie trotting into the room with a huge piece of steak in her mouth that we had left on the cutting board for a few minutes. She’s relentless. So sometimes when we’re eating & she’s not bugging us I’ll reward her good behavior with human food! I know, I’m part of the problem. But isn’t humans feeding domesticated cats part of their evolution? So there you go, I sound like part of the solution too.
