Dear god, that comic just permanently elevated Housepets to my “favorite comic” position. I love how your characters aren’t static like most comic characters, Rick, with Peanut playing the innocent naive as well as the meddlesome instigator.
And it seems Peanut has gotten over the shock of Grape being a girl, and is back to his regular shenanigans. ^^
Yeah, I’m kinda confused by what he means “burp her tummy” but it still looks cute. I wonder if Peanut will still exist after this moment…
Calvin and Hobbes was my guide to life’s philosophies… Why Bill Watterson? Why did you stop writing?

It was mentioned earlier in the comments, ‘tummy burp’ is ‘tummy raspberry’, just we said ‘burp’ when I was growing up. ‘Raspberry’ is one of those words that’s hard to fit into dactyl meter.
I prefer the round speech bubbles over the rectuangular ones used in this comic. Also, I noticed you now have the comments setup like on DA! Thanks for taking my/someone else’s advice and making it so you can reply! Calvin and Hobbes=win.
Stumble It!

Also Grape looks adorable sleeping like that, and the expressions of both her and Peanut in the last panel are priceless :3!!
