Mutts Shelter Stories
Every year, Patrick McDonnell, the creator of the “Mutts” comic, does series of strips called “Shelter Stories”. They’re about pets waiting to be adopted, and pets which have been adopted already. This year’s series started with a very poignant Sunday strip about dogfighting, but then continued through the next couple of weeks. You can see the strips on the Mutts website… just start at November 4th and then click forward to subsequent days. The online strips are available two weeks after their print publication date, so the latest strip available is November 10th, two weeks prior to today’s date. Just check back on subsequent days to read more, or sign up for a free subscription to have the strips sent directly to your email.
Patrick is going to put out a new book containing only his shelter-themed strips, and it will be called Shelter Stories: Love. Guaranteed. It will be released in April 2008, and if you pre-order it from Amazon now, you’ll save 5%.
