The current story arc started with this strip: Bribe Money.
Update: Crap, I forgot to mention that this strip is based on my own experience with the Bernese Mountain dog Lucy (named after the Peanuts character) of my grandma who was always soooo jealous of her own puppies when we were petting and playing with them. *lol*
- Cloud: I think your raccoon is a bit jealous that you’ve been spending so much time with me lately.
- Sandra: What makes you think that?
- Cloud: That’s just a general observation…

“It’s just a general observation…” jeez, ya think?!
me hates couples, me hate couple´s lives, me like/is woo.
I wonder what lies in store with this arc… If past comics are any indication it’ll be spectacular.
It doesn’t surprise me. Many pets become quite possessive of their owners. Have seen the same behavior in both dogs and cats.
Well, until Woo gets a girlfriend…:D
Great as always. My only regret if you take away your comments section would be I would be unable to tell you how wonderful you are. But to protect yourself from the foul bile some people feel free to spew, I would be gladdened if you took away your comments section. But even if you do, my well wishes will always be there invisibly rooting you on.
The other day, I was watching some classic television on DVD. Quote coming from memory; Little House: “That raccoon could tear you apart if he wanted to.”
Woo is being downright gentle in this sense.
Oh hey! It’s the standard comic practice of “not revealing the whole picture until the last panel”!
Well played.
Woo does not like to share Sandra.At all.
Can’t say I blame him considering how much she’s done for him.
Poor Cloud. And Sandra TOTALLY likes Cloud, it’s obvious from the fact the very mention of his name makes her put on a pretty dress and twirl about excitedly. xD
Woo is not happy.
^ And in abnormally warm weather too.
Try food bribe, might smooth things over. 🙂
I had a cat that did something very similar – add in the rare claw swipe at the invader boyfriend and there you go.
argh… such an old standby joke… but still, it made me smile regardless.
one from the writer’s block buffer? 🙂
Heh.
lulz, dorable.
Also, I only just realized they have pac-man pupils XD I love it.
I believe that Woo does not want another girlfriend, but is trying to keep his mittens on his current one.
Sure, it’s fun now. But just wait for when they hit their teenage years.
Cloud trying to get to first base with Sandra. Dad sitting on the porch wielding a shotgun, Woo on his lap growling…
God the number of times that’s happened to me…Doesn’t even have to be a date, anyone or anything I spend more time with than Heart or Brandy-Sue, you can be sure one of them will find a way to nuzzle inbetween.
Clearly, Woo and Sandra’s Dad are in cahoots to protect her from Cloud’s cooties.
That would SO freak me out….
aww, Woo wants some attention.
Seeing Cloud and Woo like this makes me wonder.. will Woo ever let Cloud know that he can talk? I’m sure he would take it well (He’s named after a video game character. ) It would be a cool thing too add to the comic and It would be fun to see him talk to the other animals in the forest.
Great comic :).
No. It’s one of the key premises of the comic that Woo only talks with Sandra or other animals. If he started talking with another person that would totally ruin the comic.
Oh, OK thanks (like Calvin and Hobbes).
Hehehe.. I actually had my dog do that one time; amazing how body language comes through.. even between different species.
Woo looks cute even when he looks mean like here… And I like how he’s pushing Cloud away with his hind legs – that’s what I imagine animals might do. At least my cat has a lot of strength in her hind legs, which proves when she’s jumping away from my arms…
😀
Racoons have claws, right. How can Cloud just sit there with Woo’s claws digging into him? He must have a high pain threshold.
I happens with my lover’s cats.
Very annoying but funny at the same time ^_^
Well of course Woo’s jealous. Sandra is awesome and you’re the jerk that scared her silly wearing Joker make-up. I’m sure he’ll warm up to you in time, Cloud.
…maybe.
Our dog used to do similar at night, not jealousy though, Jazz is just a bed-hog
ROFL! My daughter does this to me all the time! We always tell her, “Don’t you want a sibling? You won’t have a younger sibling if mommy and daddy can’t even hug!”
I swear even though she can’t talk she’s like, “Nu uh!”
Heh… It took my cat three months before she stopped looking like she was about to attack my boyfriend every time he came to visit. Pets can be very jealous. 😉
Ugh. My cats do the same thing. Wher you’ll start petting one, the other four errupt out of the woodwork and shove the first one over to sprawl in your lap. Durn fuzzballs.
How in the world is that so sweet? It’s like you dipped this strip (and the one before it for that matter) in a vat of honey. We actually used to have a German Shepherd who would do this exact thing, only, instead of pushing us apart with his legs, he’d just squeeze his big ol’ self between us when we’d be sitting in the living room watching tv or playing video games.
Hehe, my dogs are like that. I’ll be petting my Smaller, Frail, Timid dog, when the bigger one gets in-between us, begging for attention.
@ elner:
but for every one bile spit out at her their are a hundred fans willing to defend her and counter attack the aggressor!
Wolf in bears Clothing (its the last thing they’d suspect)
@ elner:
Maybe they could have some sort of ‘approval’ system, like for youtube vids. c:

Its a shame you aren’t a tiger, woo. Then you could simply threaten to eat him.
