Over the past month or so, I created a series of comics chronicling my feelings and thoughts about the COVID-19 pandemic. The usual characters of the comic are readjusting to a new global reality of self-quarantine and lockdowns. Despite that, the animals try to stay cheerful and tackle issues like most of us. The wholesomeness is contagious, and let's hope that we all catch it from them!

Out, damned spot! Out, I say!—One, two. Why, then, ’tis time to do ’t. Hell is murky!—Fie, my lord, fie! A soldier, and afeard? What need we fear who knows it, when none can call our power to account?—Yet who would have thought the old man to have had so much blood in him. (Macbeth)

Is anyone keeping a protective eye on the zookeepers who interact with the Kiwis during this time of Bat Soup Virus?

    Just in case anyone missed it..... he's a mailman. With all the talk about the US Postal Service possibly going bankrupt in the very near future, people have been trying to remind everyone of their importance to the US....to not take their work for granted because they go above and beyond to provide an invaluable service.

    Penguin is Cat's longtime buddy and a true coffee fiend. Always the first one to enter the cafe, Penguin cannot start his day without a visit to Cat's Café. Kiwi is a kiwi. Only says "kiwi." Best buds with Penguin. Always seems to have murderous intent.

    Even though I'm experiencing a rather positive boost of creativity thanks to quarantine, I'm also mindful of the fact that the real coffee shop workers are now in suspense. Therefore, I'm hoping that Cat's Cafe can soon resume work back to normal, just like the real cafés. I have faith that more good news is on the way, since it's so dark and drab these days, but I'm almost certain we'll hear it eventually.
