My name is Lucas Turnbloom and I am a cartoonist from Southern California.

Last year, I went through the process of cat adoption. She’s a very sweet kitty cat, but she’s also a little, well... crazy. So, I decided to turn the funny cats' shenanigans into a webcomic called "How to Cat".

The funny comic was originally intended to be an inside joke for my wife and me, but she insisted that I put it on the internet and share the silly cat with the world. My first cute drawings were previously featured on Bored Panda.

People seem to enjoy the adventures of "Sweetie" the cute cat. I hope you do too!

Water from a pan that's been soaking in the sink for a few hours is also a gourmet drink.

I promised myself to call my cats by name only, to make them answer to it.. Two weeks I lasted and gave up to Kittyieh, Fluffy, Muzzlezies, Foofoos and other type of absolutely rubbish sweetness xD

The Siamese is Punkin (an endearing name my mom called me when I was very young), Punkin, also answers to Punky, the Bengal was named Poquita because she was so tiny at age 2months, and then she became Pokey and Po-Po

My dog's name is Ash and we have started calling him Ashtopher, Boo Boo, Boo Baloo, Boo Butt,etc. Cat's name is Jasmine and we just call her Jazzy Butt and Jazz Face... I think we dropped the ball when it came to cat nick names???

Fourteen years ago we adopted two brothers; they were litter mates and the shelter would not allow them to be adopted separately. One was a beautiful tuxedo boy; we named him Damon but often called him "Pretty Boy (he answered to either one)", his brother, a grey tiger, we named Jake but he had the sweetest disposition so his nickname was "Sweet Boy" (and like his brother he answered to both names). They are both gone now; I expect to see them again at the Rainbow Bridge because without our fur babies how could it be heaven?

OMG! I had to stop reading, this was SO funny. An illustration of how cats short-circuit human thought.

Does anyone else try to pet the toe fuzz when they're sleeping and you start the googly-goo names ?

when i was 16 my cat brought one of the rabbits from my neighbour. i was mortified but quickly climbed over the fence, cleaned the dead rabbit from dirt and put it back in the enclosure. a few days later the neighbour told my mum how the craziest Thing happened..... one of the rabbits died of old age and she burried it..and a day later it was laying in the enclosure, completly cleaned. she now believes that she had some Kind of Jesus-rabbit.

We call it "prisoner transport" in my house. I have to remove the lid at the vet to get the patient out of it.

I would love a shower friend as long as they didn't claw me or anything.

Mine does this too, or if I sleep on a side she sits on the curve of my waist and I wake up barely breathing and in pain because the "princess" considers me the most comfortable throne.

The more cherished, expensive or irreplaceable the item the more irresistible it is to the cat. I just can't have nice things.

Yes. Mine always has dry food in her bowl but always insists that I pet her or at least stand next to her while she eats, including every night sometimes at about 3am, and about 10 minutes later when I'm back in bed she wants me to let her out :/ (and later my aunt lets her back in and she climbs on my chest ... there are almost no entirely peaceful - or lonely - nights for me). And yes, she sometimes simply walks away from the food after asking for me to come, even if I give her fresh food and give in and pet her waiting for her to eat. She just sniffs the food and enjoys the pets and then walks away. She also doesn't like to be pet when eating wet food or anything else than dry food but still wants me to stand next to her. And sometimes after she asks for it and I give her fresh wet food she also just sniffs it and walks away, only not as often as with dry food. She's complicated and picky but I love her.

I love this. Thank you for the dedication. I immediately thought of Garfield even before reading the last panel.

The Quality Inspector has verified that all squares are perforated and of a consistent size and correct quantity according to manufacturing parameters. This is especially true when guests are arriving soon.

I get spite hairballs for things I did a couple of years ago, or six months ago, or however long ago. Cats have long memories when it comes to imaginary offenses.

This one reminds me of a short news I saw on TV not so long ago. There was a fire at someone's home. The cause? Turns out, while home alone, the cat managed to turn on the microwave and set the place on fire.
