When the cat’s away, the mice will play
……………………………………………………
The cat was barely out the door, before the card game began.
Unfortunately Seymour thought they were playing “Go Fish,” and was accused of cheating at Poker by his unsavory friends.

This is HILARIOUS. Seriously one of your best concepts yet. I don’t know how you do it!

This is so clever, the composition from the mouse card game, looking out to the room with the cat, right through to the street! Amazing!x

What, no cheese and crackers for the boys?
You always get the expressions so perfect! I love the view of the cat leaving, and the retro couch in the living room 🙂

Giggiggig! Love the contrast expression of the winner and looser! The suspicious looks of the middle one is amusing!

FANTASTIC!!!
I love the cab waiting for the cat, brilliant. Such a great job of separating foreground and background, and I’m always impressed with all of your detail. And you know I’m a fan of a rodent with a smoke…
