The gullible pooch Satchel and Red Sox-obsessed Rob Wilco endure the daily torments of their housemate, Bucky Katt, in the wildly popular comic strip Get Fuzzy. Each day, they face new money-making schemes and battles with the ferret down the hall. Now Bucky Katt returns, dreaming up new schemes to torture and mock his housemates and to conquer his arch nemesis, Fungo, in Take Our Cat, Please! A Get Fuzzy Collection (Andrews McMeel Publishing, LLC, $10.99).
With his carnivorous tendencies, Bucky Katt is inspired by all things meaty. He does everything he can to lay his paws on a good can of tuna, or to turn the world around him into a carnivore's heaven. The more peaceable Satchel and Rob do their best to cope and fight back.
Faithful Get Fuzzy fans and curious comic book lovers will find witty banter and clever scheming in each strip. Satchel, Rob, and Bucky create a humorous and interesting dynamic, each serving as a catalyst to the other in Take Our Cat, Please!
Darby Conley first sketched the characters Bucky, Satchel, and Rob in 1996. The strip has been syndicated since 1999 and now appears in over 650 newspapers worldwide. A childhood pet named Patch became the inspiration for his comics about talking animals. Darby lives in the Boston area.
