Description Tiff and I were in WalMart a few weeks ago...

Who comes up with these product ideas? I mean... why would they even bother giving us these options? It has to be one or the other huh?

They should just know that I want my odor control to be BOTH instantaneous and long-lasting... but for some reason the manufacturers don't seem to want to give me that option... instead they make me play these head games with my fiance.

I guess they assume that anyone who has a cat must want some stink.

I like the way the store shelves worked for this strip... no they're not detailed, but I think they give the strip a nice feel.

I like continual stink myself. That way you can get used to it.

Somehow, panel 2 feels empty...But I do get the sense that it's in like a warehouse/department. You do have a fine gag, though...Heh, "gag."

It's not toothpaste. Do I want to control my tartar, whiten my teeth, or freshen my breath?

Thanks man... I dunno tho, with Toothpaste it kinda makes a bit more sense to me, 'cause I figure I don't need extra tartar control unless my dentist told me I have a problem with that, and not everybody thinks their teeth need to be whiter than they already are... but it's certainly true that it's not limited just to cat litter.

Oh, how true. They enjoy laughing at our despair when we try to pick.

People who manufacture cat litter probably own cats who don't crap. Lucky them. If I find out where they sell crapless cats you'll be the first to know!

I agree with you, the shelves do look pretty good. Also, I see that the girl you drew is less busty and also with narrower shoulders.

Perhaps the company wants you to buy both and use them together. o.0 Then you'd have to pay double the amount and give them business. (I don't know, I don't own a cat)

Thanks Julia!

You mean less bustier than the girls in my previous strips like the Vampire thing?

I try to have variance in my characters in general -- different face shapes, body shapes, hair styles, etc.

I like how all the dry cat food is the same damn crap no matter what bag it's in but the cat will only eat the most expensive kind, y'know, the one with little heart-shaped pieces that suddenly let my cat know when it's eating that I love it? Yeah. It's weird.
