[ M Is For All The Times You Maul Me ]

Title Text: quality time getting headlocked by mom: always a win-win

My, my, how time does fly. It's barely been six and a half years and Rick's pumped out 1,000 strips, five physical adaptations (including lots of interstitial art and the book covers, naturally), several short stories, numerous one-off pictures, and some quality Housepets! merchandise! I can't wait to see what all's in store for the rest of Year Seven.

Third panel is awesome! I shall wait for the icons to appear.

(Also, I might submit a guest strip! Yay, everyone gets to see my bad drawing!)

Also!

*passes out poppers and party hats*

HAPPY 1000, RICK!!!

Whooooot!
congratulations on your millenial, Rick!

ok now that that's out of my system, humans! Learn from the wolves! This is how you get to be the best mom ever! Not by buying a second TV or using some silly recording device!

Merry 1000, good Sir Rick.

Her pride dented, her hopes downed in flames,
Lucrecia hunts for answers at home.
What went wrong with her perfect party plan?
What truth of the world wasn't she shown?
Lucrecia needs Miles, like life needs sparkle,
to answer all her questionable fears
He's the kind of guy who, with one kiss,
can inflame and straighten up her cowed ears.
She's a magnificent mom from the wood,
raising bright cubs as only she knows how;
and she can take pride in, when eating out,
they'll leave pizza and just take out the cow!

WOOT! Congrats on the 1,000 strips, Rick!

And yay for me hitting 1,000 posts at around the same time! ^^

You know, with how borderline-addicted Lucretia is to her soap operas, I am almost terrified what would happen if she ever found out what a Tivo is...

Wow, is it just me or does Miles look more massive than normal next to Lucretia?

Good stuff all around! Lucretia for best mom indeed

Kudos for 1000 strips Rick, here's to 1000 more

Therolyn · Post by **Therolyn** » Wed Jan 14, 2015 2:34 am

I gotta have respect for someone who has completed at least 1000 (web)comic strips.

Here's hoping to eventually see many more over the course of time!

IdleCurator · Post by **IdleCurator** » Wed Jan 14, 2015 2:39 am

If more family disputes were settled this way, admittedly it wouldn't be a happier but definitely a more interesting world.
1000, impressive, very impressive.
Well it certainly didn't take long for panel three to become an avatar, though my money was on it being dtlux. Again.
However a lot of people have been changing avatar recently.

Yay! Happy 1000 comics Rick, you've ready gone the Miles!!! Here's to a thousand more! and here's to me stopping all my puns!
Also, with all the loving that's been going on recently, I'd say Valentine's day is having a run for its money!

HAPPY 1000!

Oh, 1000 comics. YAY!

Congrats. I am glad I found Housepets before 1000.

I love the 3rd panel, it is great.

Now I have 1,000+ pages ro reread including Guest Weeks.

1000 comics? It makes me upset that I had discovered this AMAZING comic around mid-October of last year and regret not beening able to enjoy reading this from the start.

Anyone else feel this way, or am I the only one?

Carlitosfmc · Post by **Carlitosfmc** » Wed Jan 14, 2015 11:23 am

What a cute page! I loved it

And thanks for making those 1000 strips, you are amazing!

I found the comic in the second week of August 2014. I do feel left out about not finding it earlier, but that is overpowered by knowing about it now. And at least I was around for 1000 comics.

hard to say, but I think it's the first time we see them standing next to each other with the new artstyle.
Seriously you have to admire Miles, while most people tend to get weaker with age, he on the other hand just takes up a notch with his training. That wolf could be a role model for every middelaged guy

Also:
WOOOOHOOOO 1000 STRIPS!!!

I never regretted it reading Housepets, that webcomic is just aweseome, so many heartwarming yet funny moments and super loveable characters. It's really a masterpiece

I found the comic on the 1st of august so I was realy confused whenever I came back to read it from the start and see them on a plane and then in Perth Australia. And I rushed a bit to catch up so I never looked at the older forums or comments section, which is why I had to ask about things like are Bruce and Roosevelt both boys and other previously answered questions.

Cesco · Post by **Cesco** » Wed Jan 14, 2015 4:59 pm

You've discovered the human lying, Lucretia.

Good to have got that, though. Humans have different methods to be mothers and fathers, lot of times in worse ways, unfortunately. The third panel is so sweet, great words, Miles.

Finally, typical wolves' end. Be fair with your pups, good mother.

1000 official strips! Congrats for the great goal reached, Rick!

Worth the pause.

IdleCurator · Post by **IdleCurator** » Wed Jan 14, 2015 5:07 pm

Oh Cesco, now I can't delete my double post. Could someone please remove the second post for me. Panel three is amazing, Lucretia head locking her children, a bit extreme but it is for television rights so worth it.

Oh, has Housepets had some kind of anniversary? I hadn't noticed.

But seriously, folks, congratulations on this milestone!

Congratulation to 1000 comic strips

Now I'm looking forward to seeing the next 1000! ^^

Ah, panel 3 is just adorable
