I Illustrate My Experience As A Modern-Day Parent In 30 Comics With A Feline Twist (New Pics)
I'm Chesca Hause or "Cat Mom" as I've been dubbed online. I may not be the #1 MOM, but I’m not doing so bad and I find people's flaws (especially my own) a huge source of amusement. I think that’s why a million people over various platforms now follow Litterbox Comics - people enjoy laughing at the mess of life together!
I started the comic 4 years ago because I had a hard time being a mom. I found comfort in sharing the ridiculous things that happened and building a community of moms who got it. What I didn't anticipate was how many non-moms would enjoy my comic too!
Although I still create some word-for-word comics from things that happened in real life, I consider the Cat Family to be their own “people” and hope to keep being able to draw their adventures even as my own kids grow.

The "Joys of Motherhood" are pushed so hard that you can't help but feel like you're the problem when you don't spontaneously feel it.
I'd been a cartoonist since I was little, inspired by the greats such as Garfield, The Simpsons and Invader Zim and I desperately wanted to use my art to reach out to moms that might feel the same way. I already followed the fantastic Fowl Language and Hedger Humor and thought, "Maybe I could do a webcomic too?" The reactions to my first comics were very positive and I gained followers quickly - I knew I was onto something!
The details are awesome: The baboon wants bananas, the cat wants fish, and the sheep wants greens.
In love with the details. The baboon wants bananas, the cat wants fish and the sheep wants greens.
I just realized all the things they need are related to the animals they are Cat - fish Sheep - salad Baboon - bananas
You're supposed to walk near the item you want, and then STARE AT THE ITEM! The person near that item sees you staring at it, then moves. Thats the official protocol.
There's ALWAYS someone in your way. It can be the only other person in the store and they're right in front of the thing you need not doing anything.
Ohh different cultures I suppose because over here everyone kinda passively agressively pushes the other people away
I'm like this sometimes and other times I just wait by them looking at stuff by them so when they move I can get what I need. But I'm polite
I was grabbing donuts one morning I was only taking a couple minutes cuz I was getting a couple for me and my hubby. This old lady boomer just zipped up all in my space and didn't even wait for me to be done. I swear to goodness this is a boomer behavior because no one my age would invade someone else's person space like that. It took me 3 minutes to decide it's not like I was standing there forever
I would be considered a boomer but I would never think of doing anything like that. I think we need to stop over classifying people by ages or groups and concentrate on individuals because no one likes to be clumped into a group they really don't fit into. And I think that's true of everyone. Everyone can be rude and there's no excuse for that. I don't care what their age is and I respect my elders but I respect people in general and that's the way it should be. Just my humble opinion.

Based on this tweet by @elspells13.
People ask if it's odd having strangers peek in on our lives. It probably would be if they were drawn to look like us, but having them as cats really helps! They're based on us, but I consider them their own "people" with exaggerated cartoon lives. They are meant to be ridiculous and often wrong, so if people react strongly, then I know I'm doing my job.
The biggest thing I'd like people to take away from my comics is that it's OK to not be OK. Nobody is perfect and the best thing you can do is not take yourself too seriously.
I've got a couple of new projects in the works. The first is a Patreon-exclusive comic following the Dog Family! Those comics are only released monthly, but they can’t be seen anywhere else! The other one is a compilation book of my comics, with a bunch of extra stuff drawn and written by me. I'm still working on that one, so it won't be in the shops until '23, but I'm very excited about it!
If you missed the previous parts of my comic, you can find them here, here, here, here, here, here and here.
I don’t like pineapple on pizza but I still think if people like it, it deserves to be there
Kids can insult your greatest insecurities five minutes after meeting you lol

I adore LitterBox comics-- I have been following them on Instagram! I think that they are so incredibly cute and are enjoyable irregardless of whether you are partner or grew up having siblings. Also, please stop with the absolute needless censorship, BoredPanda. It is so incredibly hypocritical and you end of ruining the artists' original work.
