The basic gimmick as described at the Flickr archive is:
“From 1912-1913 he [grandfather Aloysius “Gorilla” Koford] produced a comic strip which was featured in 17 newspapers, including the Philadephia Star-Democrat, the Tampa Telegraph, and the Santa Fe Good-Newser. The strip was entitled “the Laugh-Out-Loud Cats” and featured the exploits of one Meowlin Q. Kitteh (a sort of cat hobo-raconteur) and his young hapless kitten friend, Pip.”
Thanks for sharing these, Dan. I’m not much of a cat person either. I prefer pupies. But when I found this little cutie it made me think twice. If I could have a cat that stayed the size of a kitten I might just be interested. Sorry, I guess this is not very on-topic.
On the contrary, I share those sentiments. On the whole, I’m a die-hard dog person. It’s hard to resist a kitten, though, until I remember it will turn into a cat eventually.
