Collection of short comics about orange tabby, Michael. Recurring characters: Richard Kimbly, fugitive veterinarian; Catzilla-overweight calico; Popo-Michael’s sometime girlfriend/wife; and his various owners, though not passed from one to next. Belongs to several households, it seems. Almost like he has-heh heh-nine lives going on simultaneously. Unlike Bucky Katt or Heathcliff, Michael doesn’t walk on two legs or speak to humans, i.e. Pluto : Goofy :: Michael : Garfield. Interacts with people as a real cat would. Simple lines, little detail, but excellent cat drawings, down to how kitty bodies quiver when pooping.
