Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

We had the same thought with our cats and ended up with five. Then we realized that if you're unlucky it can get really unsustainable really quickly. For example if you have one cat and it develops 3 problems you have 3 problems to deal with. Five cats and each develop 3 problems...yeah you now have 15 problems to keep up with (vet bills, messed to clean up, fights to break up etc etc.).
I can't imagine juggling six kids. Props to you all for being able to keep up with that.
Yeah there's always a risk of getting a really hard to handle kid/cat. Some kids are just at easy, but others aren't. There's also a risk of suddenly have twins or triplets and ending up extra overwhelmed.
