3241: Orchidectomy Chapter II
| Orchidectomy Chapter II |
 Made by: JLH |
Explanation[edit | edit source]
This strip simply switches around two different pet medical procedures, from the original strip's declawing to neutering here; this is done by switching the actual procedure in the first and third panels, and one word in the second panel based on the relevancy of each of the procedures. Much like the author's earlier 3155: Orchidectomy Chapter I (but unlike the author's subsequent 3278: Orchidectomy Chapter III), the author's notes invoke a well-known long-time animal lover who was still alive at the time the strip ran but has since died at the age of 99; this time, it's Betty White that's invoked.
The author writes:[edit | edit source]
Betty White approves of this strip.
Original strip: 1978-10-17.
Transcript[edit | edit source]
Jon: Garfield, I'm going to have you neutered
{Garfield bodily flails around as Jon looks at us}
Garfield: Take an arm! Take a leg! But spare my bawls!
{Garfield leaves}
Jon: You're going to be neutered and that's that. Now get your head out of the oven!
