Housepets! is the 2009 winner of the Ursa Major Award for Best Anthropomorphic Comic Strip. Congratulations to Rick for this (perhaps unsurprising [to some of us]) development!

 Re: Housepets! Named Best Anthro Comic of 2009
It is especially surprising that this family friendly comic won when most of the other category winners contain or center around mature and erotic themes. That is just a testimony to how awesome Housepets! is =D.

 Re: Housepets! Named Best Anthro Comic of 2009
Maybe because Housepet's is unique in that sense? it actively enforces its pg rating so i can read it anywhere.

 Re: Housepets! Named Best Anthro Comic of 2009
*looks* *looks at what Fantastic Mr. Fox lost to* *sobs uncontrollably* To be perfectly honest I don't put much stock at all in the Ursa Major Awards. They seem very ragtag, honestly. I'm just glad this comic got recognition. At least one winner deserved it!

If you put any stock in them after Softpaw was up last year and some of the past years winners like In the Zone and other such pap, I'm shocked.

 Re: Housepets! Named Best Anthro Comic of 2009
To be fair, how often is a good furry game released? They take what they get. If only the Ursa Major awards were particularly respected, then maybe there'd be more of them. Oh, just give them time, they'll come around.

 Re: Housepets! Named Best Anthro Comic of 2009
I played starfox adventures, and assault. Adventures felt like a spin off of zelda and but assault was actually fun. for a while.
