He's right, though. Do what you can to get home, but move on if it's for naught.

Also, funny with the grasshopper!

The grasshopper thing was weird, but there have been more freakier things in the comic.

I see Grape is living the good life. Of course, I think she'd enjoy it better if she could actually get some sleep instead of Penut waking her up all the time. :lol:

There's a gentle distinction
between the present and the past;
this wanton sense of idleness
will last or fade quite fast.
Lying back without soldiering on,
looking silly instead of tough;
is having fun to have a home
too much or just enough?
The food here is fine and good,
it even comes to your hand.
The grass is really greener here
but, in truth, this is not my land.

Grape eating Faust is a lot more worse than Satau eating a grasshopper. We knew for a fact that Faust was SENTIENT which means Grape just committed cold-blooded murder. Though I doubt anybody really cares.

Yeah, animals being sentient does make it more surprising, but that's what happens when the real world food chain is still in full effect. Heck, it's been mentioned or implied several times now.

HE KILLED IT! He killed the favourite character!
If they go and research who he is and find that he died of old age in ancient Egypt and then he decides to stay would that create an earth shattering paradox?
Also Satau shouldn't have to sleep on the floor.

Well, we could go "alternate universe" theory or "this is how it was already meant to be" theory.

Huh...Satau is from egypt which is in africa...he ate an insect. An animal from africa which eats insects...sounds somehow familiar....well Hakuna Matata :mrgreen:

Edit: I know I'm not the only one who notices it, but I'll stay say it: It's kinda funny Satau is the chief dog of his tribe and that makes him kinda a royalty. Now think about a certain prince who also comes from africa. Kinda funny, seems like most royalty from house pets are from africa :mrgreen:

Nah it's fine, Grasshopper isn't even mentioned in the character tags so he's not REALLY a character. :3

Shame on you forums, I can't believe there's over ten posts and I'm the only one to notice this thus far. The address for this comic is "the-more-things-change-2". That's a little weird, huh? That's because this comic shares it's name with one during the Money Sharks arc 6 YEARS AGO. It's right here, https://www.housepetscomic.com/2009/07/ ... gs-change/
Crazy, huh?

Yeh, why doesn't grasshopper rate a tag?

Faust got tagged. The bird in this one got tagged as "woodland critters":

Because as stated before in the comic bugs(along with fish) are not sentient, so thus they aren't considered characters.

Faust was a distinctive character: He was literally an antagonist in that arc. =P

Poor nostalgic and thoughtful Satau, let's hope there will be a solution for you. ;) But you're seeing it, Satau, modern era life is a lot better, and you haven't tried mattresses yet. :P Food is wonderful? That's right, but then, why you ate that unlucky grasshopper? :| Grape was right before, you're really enjoying eating bugs... :roll: Yeah Grape, cats modern life is so much comfy and lazy, except for you when is the the moment to do the photo-model wearing ugly sweaters. :D

I certainly hope that Satau doesn't have a voracious appetite or else there might be NO more grasshoppers in Babylon Gardens. :?

Now, now, let's not judge him so harshly. We put dead animal parts in our mouths whenever we are eating meat, that rather gross and grim when you think about it.

The funeral will be performed shortly.
We couldn't bury the grasshopper, so the ceremony will be performed around its devourer's belly.

I think I'm going to like Satau. I hope he sticks around.

At least he has a good attitude about the whole thing. He'll be fine I am sure! I can't say the same for the local insect population though... :?

No one can tell them apart, so they can't be together or they'll get the Mr. Bigglesworth syndrome.
Hey, maybe Kevin is his great great etc. grandson?

Unfortunately that is the sad cynical truth of pets. But then again this is fictional, my cat is out saving people in Nigerian earthquakes.
