Cat Comixz 153

If you thought Leon as a kitten was cute, just take a look at little Melody. 

A while back I tried to sort of distance the world of Cat Comixz from the concept of Christmas, but I've sort of turned around on it. I do believe most of the characters would celebrate it, but largely in the same way most people in real life do nowadays; as a chance to give and receive gifts, put up bright decorations, and spend some time with their family.

Another point of interest is that, at this point, Leon hasn't developed speech yet. In the Cat Comixz universe (let's call it the CCU), that doesn't really develop until they're nearer Melody's age in this comic. Instead they make normal cat noises as kittens. Meowing is their baby talk. 

Writing kitten Leon is one of my favorite things. It allows me to describe the world in such a complicated way, yet still simplified. I don't really know how to describe it. 

We'll be going back to the normally aged characters in the next set. I've got a story I've been really excited to tell since I hinted at it in Comic 128. We're going to be learning about Sara's family.

(As you can see, our mother has once again wrapped me up like some common burrito, and I need you to help me get to that gaudy tree our parents set up in here. They mentioned presents for "good little kitties", and I fulfill all of those criteria!)

OOF!
Melody: Hehe, Leon falled!
Leon: (I'm glad my tragedy amuses you.)

*sigh* Must my life be only misfortune and disappointment?
