Maxine's Mysterious Peeing...
Today's strip switches focus back to Maxine and Elvis.
In real life, whenever Maxine is upset or freaked out over something, she pees on our belongings. Usually, she does this when the litter box isn't perfectly and PRISTINELY clean. Which, having one box for three cats, is hardly ever the case (We used to have dual boxes, but they ignored the second box, so we gave that up). But she's been known to do it when the box is clean, her water and food dishes are full, and she seems, otherwise, completely happy.
It's a mystery. Is it over territory? Is it because her brother, Elvis, was picking on her too much that day? Because Artemis hissed at her? Your guess is as good as mine.
So that will probably be a recurring theme in Kitty Wars: Upset Maxine = something peed on.
You'll also probably recognize the similarity between Fancy and Artemis' speech and those cell phone commercials...which will go nameless. You might say that Maxine and Elvis' annoyed faces are probably what mine looks like when one of those commercials comes on the tube.
Until next time,
Alpha-Mom.
