Four-panel comic by rick griffin, dated 28-04-2010.
Peanut and Grape are sitting in Grape's bedroom, talking after a fight due to squabbles with Maxwell over playing pretend.
Specifically they're talking about Peanut's crush on Grape.
Peanut: "Ahahaha! Yes that would be really funny, being completely hypothetical, right?"
Grape: "Peanut, I'm serious! Frankly, you're so bad at hiding it I thought it was just an unspoken assumption between us!"
Peanut: "...How long have you known? Since we visited the farm?"
Grape: "The farm? Oh, no, it was **long** before that"
Peanut: "Then when?"
Grape: "When you started showing an interest in **Cat things** in the first place! I'm the only cat you really **know**, so where else would you pick that up?"
Grape: "But I guess I didn't really give credence to that until I found this photograph under your pillow— since it's Fido and Sabrina colored over in gel pens to **match our fur** and all"
Peanut is looking at said picture, face red as a pepper.

And the only reason that Grape's been in his bedroom in the first place is because he kept borrowing her jingley mouse and not returning it

Alright so I started reading Housepets!, and after binging 200+ strips in a single day I think I like it, and my friends on Discord, Telegram and Matrix are getting tired of me sending strips I like so I'm now doing the second best thing, sharing it on the Threadiverse!
In case you're wondering yes I also plan to upload the ones I've sent my friends, sorry not sorry :3

~ps: In case you're wondering, I wrote the entire alt text by hand and intend to do the same for every other alt text I post. #NeverSlop~

pps about the og alt: in case you missed the memo Stripe is the cat DEFINITELY NOT A CAT that Spot (superdog) loves

Oh one of my bug bears in furry art, he (i think its a he?) should have the anime blush overlay not have the fur go red.

Love the idea he made like an old style deep fake of the two of them, an artisanal deep fake if you will.
