Yeeesss. These strips are truly amazing

Silly tiger. You don't eat those. You first eat the candy. Then you wrap them back up and give them to your friends even though there is nothing in them.

Well, now we know the limits of Tigers stomach.

Also, "stummy,"...

That's surprisingly adorable.

Sugar bombs and cola bottles,
candy canes and fizzy footballs;
all are pawns in Tiger's game;
none can hear his heavy footfalls.
Mixing in with cheerios and charms
Lifesavers and Oreos abound,
holding a party for all newcomers
in the stomach of the hound.
Too much sugar overloads
and mixes to a noxious state;
too much of a good thing
can lead the dependant to their fate.

Tiger, you've got it easy. I don't think you have to get your stomach pumped every holiday like my dog

I can't be the only one concerned that all the wax will bind together and create a bezoar? That blockage would need more than a plastic glove.

First Myrtle from Faux Pas, now Tiger from Housepets says the line "I don't follow" as a mark of "brilliant Genius" XD I guess I have a serious headache

It would be interesting if, having spent all his allowance on junk food, Tiger had no money for a Halloween costume and was given an old Garfield costume by his Dad to wear. His dilemma.... Go out infront of everyone in the neighborhood dressed as a cat, or stay home and give up the prospect of free candy this year.

Well Tiger, you might need to go to the hospital, get that wax out of your stomach...although it might give you a Halloween costume idea...

Tiger, you know you're only allowed to eat the Pixy Stix wrappers and the paper sticks from lollipops!

I remember, I'm not sure from where, a story or a comic involving an alien who loved McDonalds hamburger boxes. He wouldn't eat the burgers themselves because they were unhealthy. Anyone remember that?

Post by **SeanWolf** » Mon Oct 20, 2014 10:14 am

I am reminded of a Jughead comic where Jughead did the same thing Tiger did. XD

"I don't follow."

I LOVE THIS UPDATE! This is one of the best ones ever.

Been a while since we've seen Tiger and Marvin. Surprising I don't crave more of them when they aren't in the comic.

The last panel is the best.

On a side note, I love wax bottles and candy buttons (even if the paper does rip off and you get some of that too).

Oh, yay. A fan of Faux Pas.

YES! BEST IDEA! This needs to happen.

Ah, even a profusion paraffin packaging causes Welshie to wax poetic! And such delectable doggerel he disseminates, as well!

Too bad Peanut wasn't there ~ He would be inspired to create the Waxinator.

You may now proceed to chuck bricks at me. *runs*

Actually the wax lips are just waxy pieces of "gum" Meant to be chewed like real gum and then spit out into the trash. If you swallow the wax, it just comes out naturally.

***Warning: The following small paragraph might be disgusting to some, also do not try if you don't know how to do this safely.***

I sometimes pour melted candle wax into my throat and gag it up. It made pretty neat candles that looked like stalagmites. Of course I measured out how much so it doesn't go all the way down my throat.
Good practice for fire eaters. Also since I got used to it, I can drink hot soup and hot tea with ease.

Cesco · Post by **Cesco** » Mon Oct 20, 2014 3:20 pm

Nice to see these two again, and Marvin has a great look here.

Tiger has a (pretty) better look too now, after what he received from Jessica.

Poor little Tiger, looks like we're seeing the limits of his stomach strength and of his body. But, that won't stop him for sure.

Come on, you aren't so surprised of that, Marvin.

Tiger, you must control your hunger: the wax, the chewing gums and the wrappers aren't edible! Got it now?

You still suffer of heartache, Tiger? Depression is what makes you eat much, you must win it...

Why would anybody willingly drink hot candle wax? Sounds like it can really damage your throat.

It can be if swallowed in large amounts, I only swallow enough to go a little more than halfway down my throat.

Post by **Sleet** » Tue Oct 21, 2014 12:49 am

Choking is a bigger hazard than straight-up poison.

Tiger shenanigans make me really happy. :3 They remind me of my early time with Housepets! Tiger's always been one of my favorites.

Never herd of wax candy sticks... the other two I have herd of

I once made a mongoose out of the wax from the wax bottles...

Paraffin wax is made from oil and can be toxic, but is generally not used in applications that could be used with food.

Beeswax is absolutely non-toxic. However, it is also not really made to be digested. I'd imagine anything that would be "flavored" would be beeswax or some other naturally-occurring wax.

I haven't heard of them either. Turns out they are from a few decades ago when they were most popular.
