Housepets!

Breel should be careful where he cuts
or he’ll go through his love’s thin ear
in a strip that’s sealed up tightly
and sent to us all, love Tinnier.
The mighty Marten’s been baking
and learning from all his his mistakes.
Keene finds them more than excellent
and doesn’t count those that he takes.
Perhaps you could ‘return to sender’
I mean it’s not the thing you bought?
But I doubt Breel would have that fun;
after all, he’s just not that sort.

Keene is getting fat. Oh boy, Breel might have to cut down on his baking or his lover may need a new zip code!

Pillsbury dough ferret?

Those annoying instincts eh? Another great comic Tinnier, don't know how you manage to think up so many varied ideas

When I woke at 1am and checked the comic, I was trying to figure out why Marion was helping Keene. It wasn't until I looked at it again when fully awake I realized it was Breel.

Good comic!

In fact, this comic is based on an incident that happened to my chinchilla Charly a few years ago. When I leave my chinchillas in their free-run-room (of course I'm always with them), I put out tunnels and boxes so they can play with them. Unfortunately, this new tunnel I bought was a bit too narrow and when he ran into it, he got stuck. He couldn't get out on his own so I had to cut him out of the tunnel.

Ahah, what a funny scene, never thought of that instinct of ferrets applied to Keene... If cats go mad for cardbord boxes, ferrets go mad for cardboard tubes (I could have given a new comic idea now ). That's a natural behavior? Breel's one is baking good stuff, then. And you two are so cute together, Breel.
Great work again, Tinnier!

Chinchillas seem intriguing animals, you are lucky to have them as pets (though I imagine they take some looking after), good idea to use this happening as comic inspiration. We used to have a Syrian Hampster, very intelligent little critters, he spent most of the time rolling round our living room, an excellent climber and not picky with food, great den builders.

All I can say is that it looks like Breel is handling this better than I would have.

You know that ferrets like tubes,
But did you know that they're real rubes?
As Keene finds himself in a tight spot,
Now Breel has cause to laugh a lot.

Now Keene, says Breel, you've got real chubby
And Keene snarks back, 'all thanks to you, hubby!'
Keene, seems you've had one muffin too much,
At least Breel's got a gentle touch.
