Get Fuzzy

By Darby Conley

House cats are known to be aloof, but "cat-titude" reaches new heights in "Get Fuzzy," the bitingly hilarious comic strip from cartoonist Darby Conley. Available daily and appearing in 650 newspapers nationwide, "Get Fuzzy" is a wry portrait of single life with pets.

At the center of this warm and fuzzy romp is Rob Wilco, a single, mild-mannered ad executive and guardian of anthropomorphic scamps Bucky and Satchel. Bucky is a temperamental cat who clearly wears the pants in this eccentric household. Satchel is a gentle pooch who tries to remain neutral but frequently ends up on the receiving end of Bucky's mischief. Together, this unlikely trio endures all the trials and tribulations of a typical family ... more or less.

The National Cartoonists Society honored "Get Fuzzy" with a Reuben division award, naming it the Best Newspaper Comic Strip of 2002. There are a dozen "Get Fuzzy" compilation books published by Andrews McMeel: "The Dog Is Not a Toy (House Rule #4)"; "Get Fuzzy 2: Fuzzy Logic"; "Groovitude: A Get Fuzzy Treasury"; "The Get Fuzzy Experience: Are You Bucksperienced"; "Bucky Katt's Big Book of Fun"; "Blueprint for Disaster"; "Say Cheesy"; "Scrum Bums"; "Loserpalooza"; "I'm Ready for My Movie Contract"; and "Take Our Cat, Please"; plus "Get Fuzzy" wall and box calendars.
