Peanut is even more adorbs in this than I expected! I'm kinda agreeing with IceKitsune here. I think Max may end up ruining it or causing this trip to end horribly.

Gotta say, very cute, but Max is the most adorable, rolling around indignantly.

*Max flops down*

Oh, lost his balance. Are they even going to try and help him up?

I don't know if its just my twisted mind, but when I saw Max yelling "WHYYY" the only thing I could think of is the Nancy Kerrigan video...

Alt Text: Peanut's checking to see if Grape's unusual shape results in an unusual smell. It's never been the case so far but you never know.

Max is so adorable. *laughs*

Something about four-legged peanut and tarot makes me feel uncomfortable.
Also I wonder what other differences cats and dogs have in this universe.
Play The Hayseed Knight. This isn’t self promotion, I just really like the game.

You ever realize that the two longest pieces of literature in existence are both fanfics? Weird right?

I just find it funny that the usually Über Cool Max gets kind of whiny when he loses it...

I have to say that I'm loving this arc so far!

I haven't been a big fan of Max before, but I'm definitely warming up to him and his adorableness here :)

Hey, Max, wait until you see how fast you can move on four legs.

Not to mention you now have mad tree climbing skillz.

Plus, cats can teleport.

(at least they seem to be able to teleport INTO closets that you were sure you checked before you closed the door)

I'm loving where this is going, well done Rick.

Now is there a leash law or something else that may catch them out?
Also can human's still understand them?


I guess I'll find out soon.

Well, yeah, I'll admit, I am familiar with dogs and cats standing on their hind legs. What I meant was more toward a prolonged amount of time doing that.

And, yes, I think I see what you did thar. Nice. :D

Foxes use their forepaws to crush mice while hunting.
Squeak is diminutive, so believe me when I say she'd love it there.

Reading this arc, I keep flashing back to one of the early Treehouse of Horrors "Simpsons" episodes -- the one in which Homer keeps traveling through different universes... specifically the moment when Maggie pulls out her pacifier and says in James Earl Jones's voice "This is a very disturbing universe!"

Well, they are used to leashes in the HP universe. The shocking part to them will be when they aren't allowed to hold the leashes themselves.

He wasn't travelling between universes, he kept creating a butterfly effect by crushing mosquitoes on the triassic and such, which caused the present time to be altered to the point of ridicule.

Tarot, just stop... there is not consoling a cat like that...

Poor Max, he never wanted this! He dislikes supernormal stuff.

Peanut in the second panel is most adorable to me.

No because its specifically talking about Grape and as stated in this Arc, Grape never goes with them. So he either had to find ones in the other universes or Grape her self has been transformed before.

They tend to smell everything, be it a inanimate other or another sentient being.
Also the fact that Grape never tags along o dimensions should hint that she has never been I the transformation situation before, Peanut is just curious as to smell. As you do.

I assume that was purely sensory ilusionism and not an actual shape-shifting, right?

Who knows, but given it's coming from a canine brain I'd expect it to include smell as well as touch and sight.

I think we are forgetting Peanuts modus operandi: he wants to sniff everybody.
