Is it just me or was the story “All the Kings men” actually turned into graphics because I know I remembered seeing at and this comic reminded me of it. Little Help Pls?
Can’t belive ya guys forgot aboot this, but Rex IS a bulldog and that’s canon(That means it’s official right?).
It’s clearly said in the second arc: “The Game” http://www.housepetscomic.com/2008/06/25/you-cannot-win/
But don’ know of any other species yet sorry.
Yeah, but you’ll also notice that they’re both relatively small animals. The Ferret, being a ferret, and King being a corgi. Don’t smaller people get drunk faster than larger people? I think that the same thing is happening here.
Yeah, nya! ;p
But it could be worse, nya… “^w^
Like waking up next morning wif a hangover and find out that teh guys at teh party took yer T-shirt off and drew pictures on yer belleh wif permanent markers, nya! “ÓwÃ’
Learned mah lesson fur shure, mrrr… -.-
Five sodas does the equivalent damage to your liver as one can of beer.
Plus King is tiny with a tiny liver. Plus he’s sustaining an injury.
Plus sugar is like a drug (even for us humans I should know My brother can’t hold his sugar.).
Yeah finally desided to get a Gravatar. This one’s of a couple of my own characters.(In case you were wondering since yours is of your violin and it’s name.)
True. I can’t hold in sugar for long either. Drank waaaay too many stimulants today at the sponsored walk (namely 4 litres of redbull)… I’m still buzzing
Good old cartoon bandages. Those things’ll fix anything…except for crazy random drunken stupors. apparently. Or maybe a concussion. I bet it’s a concussion!
So ya lub ta lub, nya? =3
Or do ya lub lub in total, nya! ;p
Or lub a lubber to lub, nya? “^w^
Or R ya a lubber who lub talub or to lub lub… @.@
Ah stop nao, Ah seem ta have a sugar rush nao, nya! ~^w^~ *Hick*
Unless orange soda simply affects pets that way, if I was Fox, I’d be thinking about an emergency trip to the vet and head x-rays. Fortunately, even if Pete hasn’t made arrangements, the ferrets have set up a pet medical fund.
Just in keeping with Rick’s attention to detail. Whenever someone’s been shopping they’ve come back with a perfectly assembled paper bag of ISO standard groceries.
I had a sugar crash in the middle of the 1500m once at Sport’s day. I can see why the school doesn’t bother stopping you from eating KGs of kendal mintcake before a race.
That’s humorous. Guess King is not dog enough to handle drinking one orange soda. I like grape soda better. Makes me wonder what is going to happen after when Pete see a drunken pet arriving home.
If orange soda gets pets drunk, grape soda has to act like electric kool-aid.
Whoa… colors…
And, yeh, By Monday or Wednesday we’re likely to get the “morning after” scene.
Little cloud of black squiggly smoke over King’s head. Cartoon ice-pack. Maybe a wacky concoction hangover remedy followed by a spit-take when Fox mentions it’s one of Bino’s recipes.
No… Maybe… Who knows? Who can predict the mind of a psychopath with power? Perhaps he planed for King’s escape, but either way “what could King do that would disrupt Pete’s plans?” still comes to mind.
Well, when he was newly transformed he didn’t fully realize he had been transformed right away. I think because his prison uniform had vanished, he initially felt naked, because he was still thinking like he had a human body, and lack of collar had nothing to do with it, really. He realized after a moment that his dog body isn’t dependent on clothes the way his human body was.
( I love my avatar. ;P )
And yes, he is a bit tipsy right now. Either way yes, he has come a long way to embrace his nakedness the way he’s doing now. ;P
I don’t think so, though for humor’s sake in the comic it’s possible ;P Pets (and zoo animals, and wildlife) have been seen collarless before, but they don’t make to cover the groin or anything (excepting for King of course) and nobody around blinks twice about it. The collar covers the neck after all.
If anybody says anything about King it’s probably “look, King’s acting weird, haha” If anything, maybe they’ll find it uncomfortable that King brought up the subject of (his) nakedness but whatever.
He’s just drunk and leaning backward on one leg. Plus he wasn’t that tall to begin with.
The cited comic was only about the fourth comic after Joel was transformed to become King. It’s possible Rick didn’t totally have his drawing style for the new character down yet, artist evolve their drawing style (Note King’s rounded original collar design that evenually squared up).
And if you look at other comics a tall pet is still only about half the size of a human. If anything,I think in panel 3 he looks a little taller than usual.
I’ve seen a few drawings online where dogs got “drunk” drinking soda but is that true in real life?
I know you shouldn’t give dogs soda but if you do, do they get “drunk”? Or is dogs and soda just an Internet thing
I also have a bad feeling this will not end well. Like he’ll end up sleeping with Sasha (only implied, of course), which will get her in trouble with her owner, and him in trouble with Bino, Pete, and possibly several others.
Whoops, I forgot it’s friday… XP
Cute one, still don’ get how does orange soda do that to dogs, but it must bi like that in the HP universe right? X3
My personal fave is the second panel when King acts as a dog all by himself is just funny. BTW what book again?
Alcohol is actually ethanol which IS a poison to humans so the carbonic acid in orange soda(and natural citric acid) cold have the same damaging effect as alcohol to a human resulting in a “drunk” animal.
My brother’s German Shepherd can open an ice chest and open a twist top. He does seem to prefer bottles of water or orange soda but I don’t think he ever got drunk off them.
*sings*
“sit back and watch the dogs get drunk as h***,
so i can wake up in the morning with a story to tell….”
well…he sure is the life of the party… XD
ya know it`d so nice if there were spoken versions of these comics on youtube
because this would be the best part were someone has to play drunk King… this would sound funny
I know one of my other favourite comics, TwoKinds, has people on the forums making a completely animated series based on the comic. I auditioned for a voice acting role, but I didn’t make the cut (somebody did vote for me, however).
any success? finding voices? (I mean I`d like to help IF I had better audio equipment for recording voices + vista is to slow for this) I hope you find voices good luck you have my support
*blegh* Vista. My computer came with Basic. But that’s too basic. So then I upgraded to Premium. Waste of money that slowed down my computer even more. Then I switched to Windows 7 (no money wasted there… but not because it’s a great product ). Now my computer runs .5% faster. Woohoo.
*rolls eyes*
Then I tried out Ubuntu, as I’ve used it before. Same great experience, minus support for my sound card. Installed the K Desktop Environment on top of it (aka Kubuntu) and now my computer is like a summer breeze – warm*, but quick. (*This is in no way related to operating system(s). Having an older laptop will do that to ya.)
My brother’s German Shepherd opens bottle of water and orange soda but never seemed to get drunk. Though it is kind of difficult to tell with his personality.
LOL, king got better that fast?
oh wait, I just noticed the bruise. XD
haha, I’ve never been the first person to comment. XD I didn’t even realize it. XD
In fact, I rarely see you comment here…or was it?
I comment on almost every new strip that comes out. <_<
Hmm nevermind, must be a mistake :\
Yeh, as predicted he’s got a cartoon sticking plaster X on it.
Is it just me or was the story “All the Kings men” actually turned into graphics because I know I remembered seeing at and this comic reminded me of it. Little Help Pls?
I think it’s just you.
Wouldn’t surprise me. I’m just positive I saw a graphic version of that story, weird.
wOOt!! YAH KING!
This cute corgi is the best XD
HEY! I never thought aboot what kind of dog King turned out to be, but yeah corgis are the bests. X3
Nyaha! Sure R, minya! X3
Especially corgis who R drunk on orange sodas, nya… “^w^
Hehe point there bro. X3
Mrrrrf! ;p
In the story “All the King’s men” Rick says that King is a Corgi (a Pembroke Welsh Corgi, I pressume, due to his lack of tail), like you can read in the first sentence: http://www.housepetscomic.com/2010/03/27/all-the-kings-men/
The fact is that the two newest dog characters are the only two with a clear breed: Tarot says that she’s a Pomerania, and King, a Corgi.
Today we see that he does have a tail — just a really tiny one.
Almost seems like a waste to give a human a tail that small.
King himself described it as “stubby and not fit for chasing” in “All the King’s Men.”
No, Tom. We’ve seen his tail several times before.
Well Tom, when i said “lack of tail”, I wanted to mean a tiny one…
Yeah I totally missed that part of the story, thx for reminding me Adri.
Aboot Tarot and King this only shows that our dear author isgettin better at his work. Yaaay. :3
Indeed, Gaboris
I thought Fox and Fido were huskies.
Hmm, no, I got Fido mixed up with someone else.
There’s some identifiable breeds in the K9 unit.
Certainly Fox looks like a Husky, but nothing in the comic confirm that he’s… but I think also the same, yeah.
What about Rex? He is clearly a Bulldog isn’t he?
Certainly he looks like a bulldog.
So we have:
King: Pembroke Welsh Corgi
Tarot: Pomerania
Fox: Probably a husky
Rex: Probably a Bulldog
Anyone more?
Kevin looks like a doberman.
Ralph is definitely a GSD.
Oh yes! I almost forgot those two!
Sasha’s possibly a German Shepard.
Can’t belive ya guys forgot aboot this, but Rex IS a bulldog and that’s canon(That means it’s official right?).
It’s clearly said in the second arc: “The Game”
http://www.housepetscomic.com/2008/06/25/you-cannot-win/
But don’ know of any other species yet sorry.
Ups, i didn’t read that… yes, he is clearly a Bulldog.
Now I want a cute little Corgi ^-^ But what name should I give him? o.0
Rook
bishop sounds cooler
Ya, definitely Bishop.
So long as it’s an Aibo of course.
King XD
I want a corgi tooooo! My fursona is a corgi, my nickname in FA is Corgi, I need to own a corgi!!!
one day, I will have a dog. And I will name it King. Or Sasha if it’s a girl.
Lambert ;3
Oh look. My gravatar finally decided to work… o.o
Joel.
Orange soda!!
Man, who makes the orange soda in the HP-verse, Molson Coors? Anheuser-Busch?
First Keene the ferret gets wasted on one, now King is apparently drunk from it too. Never takes more than a can either, that’s some strong stuff.
Good question. Maybe there was a leak from the nearby brewery’s main line and it spilled into many, many shipments of orange soda!
It’s the sugar rush.
I know. Have YOU ever let a dog take a soda? Never a good idea. I swear I woke up with the police knocking at my door last time
Wut did he do? O.O
Did he run after a cat and actually caught up wif ‘im and nomd him, mao? Ó.Ã’ *Shudders*
I gave my dog Pepsi once. He’s never been the same again
It’s teh coke they put in teh cola, mao! O.O Tha stuff is dangerous, nya! /,_.\ *Takes a sip of his cola*
Pfffff. I gave me a Monster energy once. There were no survivors
O.O U have a MONSTER, nya!?
It’s an energy drink o.o http://www.americansweets.co.uk/ekmps/shops/statesidecandy/images/monster-energy-drinks-uk–242-c.jpg
Wicked cool! ;p
Only thing iz, Ah shouldn’t B drinkin energy drinx, nya! “^w^
Or else a get a tendancy to glomp every one, nya! “^w^
monster energy drink, that stuff is poison, it tastes like a sewage
Like any other energy drink, nya! “^w^
Ah tried a sip-o-Red Bully and Ah couldn’t sleep teh whole night, nya! @.@
I could dump a ton of sugar in my body and still fall asleep okay. My body’s used to it.
lol! Then U must be a hardcore sugar addict or sumtin’, nya! ;p
Diageo PLC.
Yeah, but you’ll also notice that they’re both relatively small animals. The Ferret, being a ferret, and King being a corgi. Don’t smaller people get drunk faster than larger people? I think that the same thing is happening here.
Well, speaking as a ferret, one bottle puts me to sleep. I never get fun and boisterous like that.
Kimg can’t hold his drink that well
Yeah, nya! ;p
But it could be worse, nya… “^w^
Like waking up next morning wif a hangover and find out that teh guys at teh party took yer T-shirt off and drew pictures on yer belleh wif permanent markers, nya! “ÓwÃ’
Learned mah lesson fur shure, mrrr… -.-
At least it wasn’t a tattoo, right?
That’s another problem with being a dog. Tattoos get hidden by the fur.
And that’s why there won’t be any tattoo stories on HP!
Poodle cuts.
Thnx teh sealing-cat, tha it wasn’t, nya! O.O
The sealing-cat? Is that like caulking?
“ceiling-cat”

I know who the ceiling cat is… >.>
Oh, and BTW, O Ceiling cat:
he’s the one making sure you don’t fall out of yer little hole >:3
Sorry, I thought you were just having trouble translating Aerix.
Lord knows I do.
Reasons why you shouldn’t let King drink 10 sets of Orange Soda..
Nevermind, He only had one.
And it was one too many.
lilly livered, no thats something else
well for some one is to much….
hope for his own safety he doesn’t take more
lightweight might be the word you’re looking for, Quiran.
This is funny but why specifically orange soda? or do pets get drunk off of any soda?
I just realized King didn’t know that soda gets pets drunk
Five sodas does the equivalent damage to your liver as one can of beer.
Plus King is tiny with a tiny liver. Plus he’s sustaining an injury.
Plus sugar is like a drug (even for us humans I should know My brother can’t hold his sugar.).
Come to think of it neither can I…
Oh! You has an avatar!!!! =O
Yeah finally desided to get a Gravatar. This one’s of a couple of my own characters.(In case you were wondering since yours is of your violin and it’s name.)
For a second, I thought the girl was strangling whatever that thing is lol
CanNOT believe it took me until this long to find out what your Gravatar was, Derazey. I think it’s because of the lighting.
True. I can’t hold in sugar for long either. Drank waaaay too many stimulants today at the sponsored walk (namely 4 litres of redbull)… I’m still buzzing
@FuRyY321
Yeah, I took the picture using my computers built in camera which kinda fails.
but now we know its a violin.
but it has some unique look, it looks cool
Here is a video I made a while back giving you a MUCH better look at it:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mIiEPej_JUw
only in the Housepets universe.
Well Ferrets do, but Miles was unaware of it. Maybe it’s partly delayed effects of the blow to the head?
It’s a sugar rush that cause it, to animals it put them to go into a intoxicated state instead of giving them the feeling of having energy.
I’m going to assume all sodas can cause pets to get soda-drunk, but orange soda s the most popular choice among them.
Good old cartoon bandages. Those things’ll fix anything…except for crazy random drunken stupors. apparently. Or maybe a concussion. I bet it’s a concussion!
Yeah, sumtin like this, nya! ;p

Double sowwy, nya! “^-^ Didn’t mean ta scare ya either…
I dunno, but I was thinking the exact same thing, when I saw the bandages.

me too.
lol! So ya also like vidya gamez, nya? =3
What is in that orange soda everyone is drinking? I want to know what brand it is. :3
Maybe Orange Crush? ;3
Don’t you mean Orange Smash??
Maybe it’s Tang? Formulated for astronauts to get them high.
Maybe it’s Fanta. It can be lethal in more ways than one.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SMvJPRDQiz0
It sploded, nya! >:3
thats a lot of FANTA-sy.

Check the link.
I don’t think that is implying anything other than the video.
Sunkist?
Lol, King looks funny in the forth panel.
That’s cos he’s NAKED!
WOOOT! NAKID TIME, MINYA! *Puts of collar*
Eeek! Put that thing back on!
NO! Ahm enjoying it! ÒwÓ
Wanna hug? Purrr! ~^w^~

DoooDoDoooo!
Iiiiiiiits time for

I’d hit that.
lolz! If a show is called like tha, Ah’d watched it, minya! X3
Lupus would hit that? wha?
Ah hope he means it literally, nya! “^w^
Or else Dusty has a problem, n-nya! O.o
I’d be more worried about the head injury at that point…also I wonder what King might let slip at such an intoxicated time.
King: Woo! I’m drunk, btw Fox did i ever tell you about the time I used to be human and kidnapped you…oh…
What are you suggesting? o.o
Oh wait… I figured out what you meant :3
Unless orange soda simply affects pets that way, if I was Fox, I’d be thinking about an emergency trip to the vet and head x-rays. Fortunately, even if Pete hasn’t made arrangements, the ferrets have set up a pet medical fund.
King looks oddly short in the last panel.
It’s cause he’s sorta tipsy. He’s leaning back, I think.
King *is* short. He’s a corgi.
Corgi-corgi-frapfrap, nya! X3
You’re scaring me.
I’m gonna hide.

I guess the carbonation could possibly get you drunk for a second…
OMJ! He’s nekkid! I thought this webcomic was PG-13! :O
OMG EVERYONE RUN
Why? Bein’ nakid is fun, minya! *Swings his collar around with one hand*
*Hits me in the head*
Oww…..Being naked hurts…
Durn! Ahm sowwy, nya! O.o

Then again, can U C wifout yer glasses, nya? “^w^
Who needs to be able to see when you can be naked?
True, true, mrrrf! X3
Sometimes, it’s best not to see when you’re naked….
Depend if ya wanna know who ya R nakid wif, nya! ~^w^~
No! It’s even lower! PG!
Really? Awwww
This means no partial or brief nudity, some strong language and/or innuendo, mature themes, political themes, terror and/or intense violent action.
We’re just stuck with stinky old mild language, brief smoking, crude/suggestive humor, scary moments and/or violence.
And no smoking catnip.
That’s what fancomics are for *wink*
If only there were more fancomics
Quick! Cover your eyes! And whatever you do, don’t look at this comic:
http://www.housepetscomic.com/2009/06/15/the-other-alternative/
Thx for the link. :3
That reminds me. When will see the return of ‘gas station attendant’? :3
Never.
I’ll have what he’s having.
Ah think what he’s havin is almost empty, nya! ;p
No, He’s Only Had One So Far is pretty much an awesome title.
I preferred “(I need) a series of drinks” XD
Is King blowing bubbles in the last panel?
No, that’s the international comic indicator of being drunk.
What a fine upstanding ISO standard strip!
Just in keeping with Rick’s attention to detail. Whenever someone’s been shopping they’ve come back with a perfectly assembled paper bag of ISO standard groceries.
I wonder if King and Fox will ever hug again? I hope King is careful with his words while intoxicated!
Nah, they’ll just think he’s ramblin’ aboot, cuz he’s drunk, nya! ;p
I wonder if King will spill the beans about his Human past under the control of Orange Soda!?
Then Fox will assume amnesia!
Considering he’s soda-drunk, I doubt they’ll take him seriously.
I’m guessing this will happen, but Fox won’t take it seriously. Then… THE MORNING AFTER :O
I hope this arc lasts a while. I’m lovin’ it.
Man i hope this comic never ends.
Oh god. I dread the day this webcomic ends. But nothing is infinite.
I could n`t agree more… I think I`ll set up a funeral…
r.i.p. housepets
Hey, it ain’t over yet!
thats why you dont give concentrated soda to dogs…
It must be the wood alcohol in the orange soda…
Personally, I’m more concerned about King shaking so hard with such a huge bump on his head.
I find it funny cause soda is like the forbidden drink of dogs. Every dog I’ve ever met has been scared of the fizz lol
lol same here. I guess they don’t like the carbonation.
He is going to have one HECK of a sugar crash…
Ah’m actually surprised that he can stand on his hind-legs with tha rush, minya! “^w^
I had a sugar crash in the middle of the 1500m once at Sport’s day. I can see why the school doesn’t bother stopping you from eating KGs of kendal mintcake before a race.
What’s with the garden hose in the first panel?
The dog food really does make it’s own gravy; whether we could see it or not, he was apparently somewhat gooey.
And King took a nasty spill!
oh, now I get it.
I want some of that soda!!!
LLLLLLLLLLeTs Go CrAzY!
SUUUUUUUUUUUUUGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That comment went off the side lol
A not-quite-so-infinite comment canvas.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! wt*?
not on my pc… the above one does!
ok seriously what is in those orange pop? they have to be drinking coolers it only makes sense.
I’m so glad Rick held off the cartoon amnesia trope.
I’m even happier that he acknowledged how stupid that would be.
well… at least he’s not angry when he’s “drunk”
true
I give it till Saturday before panel 4 becomes an avvi
I’d make it myself, but I lack the resources at the moment.
All you need is Microsoft paint
I don’t have a computer, I’m using a DSi XD
I need one of those. Or a PSP. Or a laptop. Pretty much anything that connects to the internet.
hey me too, slow connection isn´t it?
It’s as slow as a dead turtle.
Saturday? I give it till about 5:00 A.M.
You’re closer to correct. xD
At least, once Gravatar updates itself. xD
Im going to report you, you have naked people in yours…
Just kiddin’.
XD
Shoot him from the waist up! THE WAIST UP!!
That’s humorous. Guess King is not dog enough to handle drinking one orange soda. I like grape soda better. Makes me wonder what is going to happen after when Pete see a drunken pet arriving home.
If orange soda gets pets drunk, grape soda has to act like electric kool-aid.
Whoa… colors…
And, yeh, By Monday or Wednesday we’re likely to get the “morning after” scene.
Little cloud of black squiggly smoke over King’s head. Cartoon ice-pack. Maybe a wacky concoction hangover remedy followed by a spit-take when Fox mentions it’s one of Bino’s recipes.
lol Like a prairie-oyster, nya? ;p
Sugar water, Tabasco and egg yolk, nya! “^w^
It sounds just as nasty as it is, mrrrph… X_X (Yucky…)
Personally I prefer a prairie dog.
Against hangovers, nya? “^w^
A rather just drink OJ then eat a whole prairie dawg, nya! =3
You’re not a ferret.
No, but Ah eat meat, nya! ^w^
At least Ah think it’s meat… O.O
It comes out of a can, so Ah dunno fur sure, nya! “^w^
I like stuff made from meat.
Like wut, nya? =3
Love them little mousies.
Mousies what I love to eat.
Bite them tiny heads off.
Nibble on they tiny feet.
– B Kliban
King is SUCH a lightweight. He needs to drink more, get a tougher liver, more hangovers, ect.
He’s like… 6… (in dog years)
What do you suppose Pete’s going to do when he finds out?
I think Pete will do nothing at all, I’ll bet he planned this for…some reason, I would not put it past him
He planned for King to get soda-drunk?
No… Maybe… Who knows? Who can predict the mind of a psychopath with power? Perhaps he planed for King’s escape, but either way “what could King do that would disrupt Pete’s plans?” still comes to mind.
Maybe Pete didn’t want King to go cause he’d get soda-drunk.
Maybe he was just making up an excuse for putting King in a carrier.
I think he`s going to get a second bumb on the head …(history repeats itself) maybe?
Funny how Señor Stubby Legs’s first drunk thought is for everyone to get naked…
Funny how he’s gone “native” enough to think of “taking your collar off” as “getting naked”.
I mean, that’s such a change from when he was just transformed…
http://www.housepetscomic.com/2009/12/04/try-to-understand/
well he is soda-drunk…
Well, when he was newly transformed he didn’t fully realize he had been transformed right away. I think because his prison uniform had vanished, he initially felt naked, because he was still thinking like he had a human body, and lack of collar had nothing to do with it, really. He realized after a moment that his dog body isn’t dependent on clothes the way his human body was.
( I love my avatar. ;P )
And yes, he is a bit tipsy right now. Either way yes, he has come a long way to embrace his nakedness the way he’s doing now. ;P
would any of the other pets be uncomfortable looking at a collarless pet?
I don’t think so, though for humor’s sake in the comic it’s possible ;P Pets (and zoo animals, and wildlife) have been seen collarless before, but they don’t make to cover the groin or anything (excepting for King of course) and nobody around blinks twice about it. The collar covers the neck after all.
If anybody says anything about King it’s probably “look, King’s acting weird, haha” If anything, maybe they’ll find it uncomfortable that King brought up the subject of (his) nakedness but whatever.
hmm…now that I think about it, they’d probably be like “What’s he talking about get naked? We already are naked.”
Every comment I make feels one comment closer to being b& lol
I wonder if being furless would count as being naked to them.
Also, what does bampersand mean? (I had to add my retarded speculations to that XD)
b-and
banned
I know, I was just being an idiot
Compare this King with this king: http://www.housepetscomic.com/2009/12/09/munchies-and-crunchies-in-here-somewhere/
It looks like he has gotten shorter.
He’s just drunk and leaning backward on one leg. Plus he wasn’t that tall to begin with.
The cited comic was only about the fourth comic after Joel was transformed to become King. It’s possible Rick didn’t totally have his drawing style for the new character down yet, artist evolve their drawing style (Note King’s rounded original collar design that evenually squared up).
And if you look at other comics a tall pet is still only about half the size of a human. If anything,I think in panel 3 he looks a little taller than usual.
And this is why he failed his ASPCA background check hehehe
Why is king getting his feet sprayed?
Maybe WAS getting sprayed al over his body? since he’s shaking his body in the next frame?
PARTY HARD! SHAKE LIKE A DOG!!!
AND DANCE WIF ALL TEH CATS AND CHICKS, NYAHA! X3
W00T
Shake tha tail, minya! X3 *Does a goofy dance*
Danceing on the MOOOOOOOOOONNNN!
With out a collar……
noooo thats so cruel,
no moondance without collar
and the moonwalk too please
Hey it is better to moondwalk or moondance, then just mooning people, nya! ;p
I wonder if he’ll have a hangover! There does tend to be a sugar crash…
Whoo loves orange soda? KING LOVES ORANGE SODA!
Seriously, was I really the first one to think Kenan & Kel? XD
No I did it on the Forums before you. But yeah it was calling for it. XD
Me thirdly. It saddens me to see all these people who aren’t getting it
He looouuurrrvvvvvvvvvess his ooorrrrrrange soooooooooooooo-DA!
I got it.
Kenan and Kel were epic.
Err… I never had a collar to begin with, so, I guess that means I’m already nekkid :3!
PAAAAARTAAAAY!!!
dude seriously … my dog never weirs a collar and she doesn’t party, in fact she just barks of EVERY dog that comes within 10 meters… (stupid dog)
Maybe she bark of every dawg cuz she’s nakid, nya? “^w^
Ah mean a would yell 2 if Ah would be nakid and everybudy looks or stares at meh, minya! X3
True true…
… I … never thought of it this way…
naked dog!
Like King, minya! X3
Har, that’s just cute from my view :3
I’ve seen a few drawings online where dogs got “drunk” drinking soda but is that true in real life?
I know you shouldn’t give dogs soda but if you do, do they get “drunk”? Or is dogs and soda just an Internet thing
idk. I’d like to know.
Also is that Bolt in your avv?
lol yeah it is xD
I titled it “Cartoonified Bolt”
nice ^^
What is it with dogs and orange soda?!
I also have a bad feeling this will not end well. Like he’ll end up sleeping with Sasha (only implied, of course), which will get her in trouble with her owner, and him in trouble with Bino, Pete, and possibly several others.
Or at the very least embarrass himself so bad that he doesn’t want to leave the house.
Heh … looks like he can’t hold his soda … and judging by his attitude in panel 3, he was used to stronger stuff back in the day …
How the mighty have fallen XD
Judging by panel 3, he had no idea soda = alcohol to pets.
why do i have a feeling that somethings are going to be said form king?
Hahahahaha! the power of orange soda and suggestion! XDDD King, you’re the BEST!
Silly joke… the last panel is PG-rated? XD
maybe, because to pet soda is beer to them.
No visible genitalia, mammary glands, or graphic gore; we’re just seeing a dog stand on two legs and yell something about clothes.
Errr… it was just a silly joke, because King says that he’s naked
I know that is really completely g-rated *chuckles*
My comment was also a silly joke.
Ah ah!
Aha
Remember: pets seem to feel naked without their collars. What surprises me is that King realized this concept so quickly.
Usually in all cartoons and comics, a dog looks much more naked when takes off the collar XD
Yep, like I said, he’s going native.
I like it lol
I think by removing the collar… he’s naked.
Besides, fur hides their modesty
Same reply than just above this comment:
Usually in all cartoons and comics, a dog looks much more naked when takes off the collar XD
somethings that should kept to himself
Yay! Orange Soda! I hope the ferrets are invited to the Orange Soda party with the Good Ol’ Dog’s group!
Whoops, I forgot it’s friday… XP
Cute one, still don’ get how does orange soda do that to dogs, but it must bi like that in the HP universe right? X3
My personal fave is the second panel when King acts as a dog all by himself is just funny. BTW what book again?
I think all Kings men..
Oh that may be, thx Hopper.
Yup,Yup.
Looks like someone can’t hold his soda XD
Seriously, how does orange soda give the same effect as alcohol?
Alcohol is actually ethanol which IS a poison to humans so the carbonic acid in orange soda(and natural citric acid) cold have the same damaging effect as alcohol to a human resulting in a “drunk” animal.
The soda’s been sitting warm for months and the sugar fermented in the can… hence… Doggie BOOZE!
I remember once at school when a carton of apple juice somehow fermented or something. It tasted EXACTLY like cider.
thats how they make cider
Pssht. Light weight XP
WOOT! Ah lub parties, minya! X3
Especially when Ah can get likkered up, nya! OwO *Stares at Cola*
WOOT!
Don’t do it. Don’t do it!!!!
Dooowut *hips*, nya! ~^w^~
If you can’t beat um’ join um’!
Yups *hick*, mrrrrf! ~^w^~
*****I…….Think….Ive had to much…..*****
Im miss Nezbit!
And Ahm juzzz ketun startid, minyaho! *Hick* ~^w^~
*unintelligible words*
don’t you agree?
Yesh, totuwuly, mrrrf! ~^w^~ *Hips*
I think he’s gonna have quite a bit of explaining to do to Pete tomorrow…if he doesn’t already know…
Remember; I created the phrase “soda-drunk”
I think the title was an intentional reference to this song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GeZZr_p6vB8
I love that song!
“It’s getting hot in here
so take off all your collars!”
lol remix
For some reason, every time I think of that song I now think of “What is Love”.
I think those two should be remixed together.
Who’s with me?
lol wut?
Go for it. This will be the amazing jumpstart to your producing career.
Well, you know, I never said I’d remix it.
I just think somebody who has talent with that sort of thing (not me) should do it
Hehe… xD
Cant decide which is cuter drunk king or shaking himself off king
Both. At the same time.
Wet fur contest! LOL
I forget where I first heard that…
From a different strip.
Alt text, with the barn cats.
Oh yeah, that’s where.
Ah… King?… You’re ALL naked!
Well, I mean you’re all naked when you take off your collars…
Well, I mean you could be thought of as naked, but then you have fur….
.. er… Heck, just give me that Orange Soda. Let’s all get drunk and naked!
woot!
Wort woot wit! (Go for it!)
LOVE this comic. King is possibly my favorite next to Peanut.
how do we know he hasn’t forgotten being human? Or worse, while he’s drunk, he might not remember being a dog
“Dude, I can’t see red, why can’t I see red? And when then my nose get so long and wet…and didn’t I kidnap you once husky who’s name I forget?”
Actually I can’t see that happening in this strip, but whatever Rick uses will probably be MUCH funnier anyway.
“Yes, yes, you kidnapped me, King, now go to sleep.”
King’s gonna get a baaad hangover.
Pete’s going to give him a really nasty hangover cure.
Ouch, I felt that one through the screen!
Who love’s Orange Soda?
King loves Orange Soda!
Is It True?
mhmm
i do i do i do i do-oOo!
Sugar rush. Wow.
Scary.
I think I had one of those before.
so that`s the reason why I go crazy when I drink a soda
…THE SUGAR…
And thus a running gag is established.
Not if I’m faster! *dashes away*
1/0 anyone?
Yay drunk animals!
hehe! Go King!
I saw drunk-King and was like “Hey I should go make that an avatar!” Then I went to make a comment and was like “Oh never mind…”
Two of us were faster *chuckles*
that`s why I took Tiger`s awsome face
lol
I think he`s funny AND sad at the same time…
there are more frames you can use for an avatar, frame one perhaps
na this one`s fine
woops didn`t look … sorry
that tends to happen sometimes
Surreal.
…heh. That’s a funny word. Sur-real. Heh heh heh.
king in a hangover : what happened to me last night. who’s Daisy?
king: hello
Daisy: hi i’m daisy
Oh hey! Maybe we’ll get lucky and King will end up on a sort of wierd adventure like in the Hangover movie!
that’s my quote, and if any super star wants it they will have to pay me nine millin dollars.
hmmm maybe he`ll lose fox on the roof and get “married” with sasha (OR DAISY)… phrk… lol
XD LOL
but still in the end … I DO NOT WANT TO SEE THOSE PICTURES (but i have to)
YOU CANNOT SEE WHAT YOU WANT TO SEE BUT THEN YOU SEE AND YOU CANNOT UNSEE
Where are the pictures?
I Gotta Feeling…
…
That I’m Not Going to Tell You-ou…
TELL ME OR ELSE!
Or at the very least give me a soda.
Sodas are for winners. To become a winner, you must become a King. But soda is bad for Kings, because they cannot rule properly on sugar highs.
So no soda for you.
… I … found … the … cam * longer awkward silence than usual*
true (I hate to admit it but true)
So do dogs seriously get drunk off soda in real life? ‘Cause I know it doesn’t take very much beer for them to get plastered.
My brother’s German Shepherd can open an ice chest and open a twist top. He does seem to prefer bottles of water or orange soda but I don’t think he ever got drunk off them.
You can only get drunk off of alcohol. King is not “drunk”, per se; he’s on a “sugar high”.
well he had a nice bump before drinking, just continue king, drink, drink..
wonders what stupid things king is going to say.
*sings*
“sit back and watch the dogs get drunk as h***,
so i can wake up in the morning with a story to tell….”
well…he sure is the life of the party… XD
let’s hope he wakes up at home.
ya know it`d so nice if there were spoken versions of these comics on youtube
because this would be the best part were someone has to play drunk King… this would sound funny
They don’t do it on YouTube but some guys on the forum apparently do record the comics for somewhere on the internet as the Housepets radio show.
thanks a lot… you really helped me out there
um sorry to ask can you find it on the internet or are they still discussing the voices?…
they’re still getting the team together, it might be a while before any of the strips are attempted.
I know one of my other favourite comics, TwoKinds, has people on the forums making a completely animated series based on the comic. I auditioned for a voice acting role, but I didn’t make the cut (somebody did vote for me, however).
any success? finding voices? (I mean I`d like to help IF I had better audio equipment for recording voices + vista is to slow for this) I hope you find voices
good luck you have my support
*blegh* Vista. My computer came with Basic. But that’s too basic. So then I upgraded to Premium. Waste of money that slowed down my computer even more. Then I switched to Windows 7 (no money wasted there… but not because it’s a great product
). Now my computer runs .5% faster. Woohoo.
*rolls eyes*
Then I tried out Ubuntu, as I’ve used it before. Same great experience, minus support for my sound card. Installed the K Desktop Environment on top of it (aka Kubuntu) and now my computer is like a summer breeze – warm*, but quick. (*This is in no way related to operating system(s). Having an older laptop will do that to ya.)
… ****
The best duo Ive seen. XD
This is just like a certain ferret… Maybe this is a sign.
King has multiple personality disorder, and he and the ferret are one in the same??? O.O
Which means….
King is rich?! \O.O/
I like how you think!
IT. IS. BRILLANT!
woooo!!! *rave* lets do this!!
lightheaded little cutie
Just curious, do all animals get drunk from orange soda?
yes, but the small ones get drunk faster.
My brother’s German Shepherd opens bottle of water and orange soda but never seemed to get drunk. Though it is kind of difficult to tell with his personality.
AAAARRRGGGG!!! y cant i comment on my computer!?!
king: if king doesn’t his soda he gets uhhhh……………
fox: mad?
king: don’t mind if i do!
WOOOT i figured out my computer
Nice avvie, you make it yourself?
I’d make a better one, if I could convince myself to log onto my Windows partition (I can’t use The GIMP as efficiently as Photoshop).
no sadly I didn’t I just went on google and typed in furry paws
but i can draw just cant get it on mah dang computer
I just found out about the “Grabbin’ Pills” meme.
That would apply far too well with King and orange soda. :\
