I want a HUG!!!!
Merry Christmas Everyone! Ho Ho Ho
Merry Christmas!
Peanut + Grape kissy double combo! =D
Alt text: DID YOU HAVE TO DUNK THEM IN THE SNOW
Yes
yes you always have to
Hugs of christmas to you and much merryment to be done, yes?
Merry xmaaaaaaaaaaas!!!!
chirstmas group hug!!!!!!!!!1
Me too! Hugs all around! *Glomps everyone with cold paws*
Also, I think this may be the best present she ever got, the possibility of the writer of Pridelands as a friend.
D’awww. *giggles*
Peanut has his revenge.
D’awwww.
D’aaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwww
….. naow ai want ah peanut huggle
Group Hug!!!! :3
Hurray for group hug!
Heheh… cold paws I3
I need to try that this morning.
XD lol, poor mr.sandwich
glad to see everything went well in the end ^^
Everyone gets a hug and that was very sweet of Res
Peanut GLOMPED! That made my day!
Cold paws! Not cold paws! agh!
We are all such dorks. Commenting on a comic strip on christmas morning. Gosh.
But its the best comic EVER!
got that right
Correct! You win the jackpot of ~
*checks paper*
0 cookies . . . Who ate all the cookies?!
i blame the racoons
Stupid raccoons! *Shakes fist angrily*
See? This is why you grab your cookies as soon as the conditions are met! You don’t wait for the bookie to hand them too you, because he’s actually a racoon!
santa…
I’m here sharing it with family and friends
so THAT’S the Sandwich’s alarm clock
I lul’d at the hint given yesterday in the Alt-Text…
Merry Christmas, Everyone!
Was still hoping for the mistletoe, but a hug is good too!
I am no longer sad.
“Hey Dad, Cold Paws!”
That made my day…
It’s amazing how staying up to read yoru favourite series could actually have an impact on your life =P
At least he’s dedicated <3
Lol, nice, brings back some memories when my siblings and myself use to do that. You know I can’t make up my mind which seems sillier, Peanut reacting to that moment with a group hug, or Grape doing ‘cold paws’.
Aside from that, Merry Christmas everyone!
I don’t get the last panel. What does “cold paws” mean?
It means cold paws
Meh those are cold… >.<
I knew somebody was going to say that. But i certainly didn’t expect it to be you. O.o
Cold paws are colds :3
Looking back on this comic, it would have been a great way for Rick to refrence Garfiled with the old, “Wet Nose in the Middle of the Back” trick.
Better than cold WHOLE BODY!
But I did let the cat in under the blankets anyway. Who doesn’t want to be warm? <3
Try this, dunk your hands in snow, or cold water. Then hug someone.
Oh.
No, see, you put your hands on either their face or their back after the water or snow for maximum effect.
^That. Or their neck, which is the best place.
confirmed by comic artist, they are cold paws
It is still early for saying this, but I don’t care (YOU PEOPLE WILL NEVER TAKE AWAY MY CHRISTMAS SPIRIT… well, the rest of it…)
MERRY FRIGGIN’ CHRISTMAS, AMIGOS!
Ok, now it is Christmas…
MERRY CHRISTMAS, GUYS. CHEERS, HUGS AND CHIPS FOR EVERYONE!
By the way, someone wants some tamales, I had to many… ugh…
I’m the biggest fan Christmas ever had! Who can guess what movie that’s from? It’is one of my favorite Christmas movies that I watched tonight. Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!!!!
Did not predict this.
No Babylon Five Gardens.
I now predict Panel 8 grape avatars.
I predict panel 11 Peanut faces XD
Oh my gosh! And where did you get your avatar? It’s so cute~
Umm I just found it with a fan fiction, took a while to find it
No panel 8 grape avatars. That’s two strikes.
Merry [I]Christ[/I]mas everyone! May you receive your two front teeth, your hippopotomi, and your Official Red Ryder BB guns as you rock around the Christmas tree.
hey, your only allowed one reference per senten- ahh screw it i dont care
You, my good sir, are awesome.
YAY happy ending for xmas… its a good thing
What about New Years?
We will blow up Barbie Dolls with M-80’s for New Years. Lucky for me that my 7 girl cousins never play with their toys for long when they get them for Christmas.
I so totally agree with you on blowing them up…. Its a fun childhood memory for me lol
Why are there no other houses around the Sandwich’s house in panel 12? There would be some indication that there are other houses around theirs. It looks more so like their house is in another dimension. Maybe they built it over a stargate that’s triggered whenever a certain amount of joy is near?
I know. This is a stupid subject… I’m just finding something to do while I wait to open my presents.
They… uh… have a big yard?
Not everywhere has houses shoulder-to-shoulder. This looks more or less like an aerial of my own house, with it’s 1-acre yard.
But as we can clearly see in previous comic strips that the houses are pretty close together. Note that I said they are no INDICATIONS of there being other houses around it. We should see fences at least.
Feliz navidad !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1!!!!
Feliz Navidad!
I wanna wish you a merry christmas!
“With lots of presents to make you happy”!
I don’t often say this, but that avatar is adorable. Where’s it from?
….well so wats goin on?
cold paws means…. time to run in the snow!!!!….. but i never see real snow T.T
Why?
Probably cause he lives near the equator, or he just never goes outside in the winter time . . . my bet is on the equator theory though.
Cold paws? Cold noses are worse!
There are much worse ways to be woken by a cat but I shan’t elaborate lest your delicate sensibilities are offended.
….. but you not run with your nose…. creo?
How do we know Grape did the “cold paws”? Also the only reason I’m still up is because I’m used to falling asleep at 2:00 or later
Oh never mind! Just noticed the “agh Grape!” Anyway merry Xmas
Christmas Group Hugs!!!
:3
That was the most PERFECT ENDING to that arc!
First time posting on this comic. Very nice way to end things. Although now I’m afraid the bond between Peanut and Grape will become less special D:
Merry Christmas everyone
Merry Christmas!
I need to know where you got that Avatar, And Merry Christmas
He got it from a fanfic, Protip: Avoid fanfics like Chuck Norris.
That’s just me tho, things just haen’t been the same since I read that Harry Potter fanfic.*Shudders*
Chuck Norris is so awesome the universe writes fanfics about him.
Wow! A triple strip! The first in Rick’s Housepets! =D And Merry Christmas to all! ^-^
Nu uh uhhh… I think not!
Whoops… Forgot to post link
http://www.housepetscomic.com/2008/12/25/housepets-christmas-edition/
It’s # 3 actually
And all of them have been Christmas strips!
wasn’t there a fourth? it was one of the spot comics though i’m pretty sure it’s a technicality
http://www.housepetscomic.com/2010/06/04/well-okay-pretty-finite-canvas/
sorry don’t know how to hyperlink
never mind found out it links automatically
Great I’m not the only one awake at 1:30 am! My stupid neighbor decided that this would be the best time to shovel! Now I’ll never get to sleep!
Such a good comic, glad things worked out for Grape; and looks like Max got away with his comment.
ooo rick thank you for this turning the arch around like this … it broke my heart seeing Grape sad, so was a really nice comic update .. arf
But also… Cold Paws! X3
Soooooo. Does this mean we’ll be seeing more of Res?
“…before i have to catch a plane back home on Sunday?” remember? so i’d say we will see him, but not much of him
ah crap, i lost 100 cookies
Hey, it’s Christmas! Want some of mine?
it’s okay, i always keep a secret stash but thanks anyway
but my secondary bet may still pull through
I need cookies, nobody wants my internetz
*gifts 200 cookies*
D’aww.
And Merry Christmas, Rick!
Aww that is heart warming and such
love it.
Merry Christmas everybody :3
Merry Christmas!
Also, Res pics unite!
Gosh darn it! Everytime I comment on someone having a pic like mine, my gravatar disappears! Of all the rotten luck/timing…
And nobody has a Gravatar like mine!
merry Christmas everyone!
don’t you just hate cold paw? and i wonder if there going to be a all the king’s men (prose) part 2?
So many threads left hanging. I read an article a little while back about this being a problem of webcomics, because there’s never any need to ever close a thread because there’s never an end-of-the-book deadline looming.
Closing All The King’s Men is being worked on, on the forums. The result will be posted here when they get done.
There are about ten or so versions, each written by different people.
So there isn’t one by Rick?
No he said he was done with it, so he let others try to finish it
Nope. Each person that participated wrote parts two and three.
Oh, Belgium!
Forums? There’s forums?
Nvm, I see the little tab now. Derp.
So lovely! I liked a lot!
Christmas this year was fun. ONWARDS TO NEW YEAR.
T^T
But I’ll miss 2010… The best year of my life (So far) in which, among other things, I discovered this wonderful webcomic.
Props to you, Rick. Happy Holidays everyone~
I’ll miss 2010 too. I became a furry in this year ;3 (15th of February) and I discovered this and 4 other great web comics.
Merry Christmas to all and to all one hell of a New Year’s!
YAY!!!!!
And my cats woke me up the exact same way at like 5:00 in the morning, ON MY FACE!!!
Ò_ó
Glad everything worked out for Grape and Max as well. I really love those two <3
Merry Christmas Everyone from Canada =P
So much holiday d’aww, my good Rick.
Merry Christmas and a happy new y- OMG peanut’s ears are adorable in the
next to last panel!
I Love happy endings. Also, the conclusion to Res’ story arc reminds me of this:
“Whenever there is a meeting, a parting is sure to to follow. But that parting need not last forever. Whether a parting is forever, or only for a short time, that is up to you.” – The Happy Mask Salesman, “The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask”
Oh, and cold paws? Awesome. I find that a cold wet nose works great as well. ^_^
I love that game but that guy is creepy..
crap, that’s the second time one of my comments is awaiting moderation
Forbidden words, too many links, or excessive HTML formatting?
forbidden word, i think
Be careful of what you post, otherwise you’ll find that happening often.
Merry Christmas everybody!
*dances around, tossing yummy delicious fudge to everyone*
Peanut made my day! xD
Cold Paws? Sounds fun.
Ah Cold Paws. The Normal Tradition of Waking Someone Up – The most funnest but coldest of ways. Great job Peanut
D’awwwwww, this made my day! MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Awwww
If this wasn’t a Christmas-themed comic I’d be obliged to say this: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=40558450046
Merry Christmas Everyone!
and a Happy New Years
Now I wonder if there will be a split view for when Grape and Res on the phone. Of course, I bet Grape would do most of the talking.
I need to know where Silent Kitsune got his Avatar please, And Merry Christmas to all
Why does everyone want to know whet I got my picture from? :/
http://www.housepetscomic.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=140
Seriously. Have a blast.
Hey I was going to post that! Oh well, read the story, its good
It’s such a sweet story! *sobs* *randomly hugs someone*
Haha my prediction was right! Panel 11 peanut faces!
Thank you for proving my point!

Enough.
Max is out off the jerk list. Grape earns a new friend. Peanut gets hugs. I heart a good ending. C: Merry Christmas.
Aww.
D’awww…
*GLOMP*
Very touching, brings a tear to my eye.
Awwwww friends at christmas are the best
OMG!!! it’s a TRIPLE STRIP!!!!
All the way across the page!!!
…
on a completely unrelated note, Merry Christmas everyfur!
omigod…..Woha that’s amazing…. Triple strip…. what could it mean…. so beautiful
(Someone better get the reference)

Double rainbow……
sorry uh A PERSON WHO COMENTS. >_>
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQSNhk5ICTI
Awwww…! This is sweet! I hope Grape and Res become friends, then.
And Merry Christmas, Housepets! readers!
Max and Grape have an awesome hug shot AND kiss shot. Surprisiiingly, no-one jumped on it. Eh, Peanut Butter and Grape Je[ly Sandwich hugs warms my heart. And make me a little hungry.
Typos… warm*
That’s because the majority of the fandom here likes Grape and Peanut more than Grape and Max. Myself included.
So do I! :3
Panel 8 expression is awesome. Also that is kind of a mean but awesome way to be woken up. *giggles*
I just wanna say… CALLED IT!
i shoulda bet some cookies…
