        That guy doesn’t have lots of dogs. He sold one dog, and all of them left.

    I had 2 cats. That was a good number of cats. Then a stray put 5 kittens under my garage. I found a home for 2. I now have 5 cats. 5 cats is too many cats.

      My cousin had 18 cats at one point. He lived next to public land in Florida in a spot where people frequently dumped cats, and most of them ended up living in his house. He had a room with a kiddie pool filled with litter. He’s also a die-hard white supremacist despite being half-Thai, proof that people are complicated.

        Maybe he forces himself to put cat in his Asian food to keep the stereotype alive.

      I had/have 5 cats. (All formerly strays.) This summer, 2 local strays gave birth near my house. I spent the summer trying to make friends with them and mostly succeeded with the exception of the one stray momma who will come up to the house for treats and food, but still doesn’t like me touching her. So now I guess I have 14 cats unofficially, and the resistant momma will make 15 if I emerge victorious. (Obviously I can’t take them all in to the house but I have a shed I can keep warm for them in the winter to make their lives a little easier.)

      Now I’m saving extra money and me and my neighbor are chipping in together to get them all fixed. We’re probably going to have to trap “Smokey” (The one momma who still doesn’t quite trust me yet) to get her done while we try and find homes for all these adorable rodents. Not something I can really afford at the moment, but I’m still going to do as much as I can for them.

      It sounds like we may have found a home or two for at least a few of them, so that’s a bonus at least.

        Depending on where you live many municipality’s or rescue agencies will spay and neuter strays for free. Maybe worth calling around and finding out if a program like that exists near you.

          Ya they don’t do that here. The only option is they’d come and pick them up and euthanize them. I’ve been calling around the last while trying out my options. One vet clinic around 30km away does have a “family” deal for litters which knocks a bit off the price at least, so that looks like the route we’re going to take. Otherwise it’s $120 for males, and $200 for females.

      I currently have two cats. I can confirm that two is sufficient but not excessive cattery.

      Two cats is the perfect number of cats. It’s hard when they adopt you though.

      We have 4 and 4 is too many as well. 3 max. Any more than that is just insanity. Fur everywhere, litter everywhere, vomit every week, vet bills, food bills, making sure all 4 get enough play time and cuddles, being the cat police when an argument breaks out… it’s a headache

    I would have liked to see him carrying a box or a crate to make you believe more that he was bringing the dog back.

    Who’s the artist for this one?

    I love it, would like to read more but the name is a little blurry

      According to Google Lens, it’s “A comic by American Illustrator, Courtney Dunkel, first published in the Boston Globe on November 10, 1950”

          It’s ok, you can steal my totally original idea. ;)

    Read it forward and it’s heartwarming but read it in reverse and it’s pretty funny
