It’s pages like this when I sigh in relief that I draw this comic in pencil. Want to know a silly fact? Mike was actually MEANT to be a Russian Blue at first! But after a little more time surfing through pages and looking at cat breeds (I was trying to attach breeds to the other characters), I came across Korats.. and I thought Korats were A LOT more fitting to Mike, way more than a Russian Blue. Korats even have really sensitive hearing.. so yeah.. but by the time I thought that was more fitting, page three was done, dialogue and all. So I erased the dialogue on a few panels and rewrote it.

The conversation originally was all “I’m a Russian Blue! Cool, huh?,” “That is oddly fitting, foreigner,” “HEY!”.. etc, from what I can recall. I think the whole change went smoothly, though.. you be the judge!

Also, Daisy is the most adorable character ever. Although I feel bad because Ragamuffins are said to be particularly big cats.. and Daisy’s really small. IT’S HER REX TAKING CHARGE, that’s why she’s so small. Yeah.. YEAH. Quiet.

Took a random cat quiz, found I was a Maine Coon. Apparently I’m “You`re just almost too lovable! Compassionate and kind, you`re the loyal and dependable figure in everyone`s life. Sometimes you have a hard time trusting strangers, but once someone gets under your skin, you`re theirs for life!” Still can’t decide if that’s me or not….

Ohh.. Once more I see those stereotypes about Russians. Every time I see reference to us, there are always ushanka and domes of the church. At least there are no bears in this page :D

Wow, Mike was supposed to be a Russian Blue.
That would have made me smile. 8-D
But to be quite honest, that wouldda been cool in my opinion.
