We're going to TCAF! Two Cats Magazine will have its OFFICIAL debut there, at Table 159! It's directly across from the human bathroom. So if you're coming to the show, please come by and say hello! I'll also have mini-comics, catnip mice, merit badges, and paw-made brooches. It's going to be so much fun!

Two Cats Magazine Marketing Meeting

Boo Radley is an SEO guru, whatever that means.

Two Cats Magazine is COMPLETE and I have the final proof and the copies are being made and being sent to my house as I type this! I AM SO EXCITED TO SHARE IT WITH YOU OMG

Tanjo, Photo Editor

Thu, 19 Apr 2012 15:06:41 GMT

It's a difficult job, which is why we hired Tanjo to do it.

What's this? A proof of Two Cats Magazine???

It's true! We had some issues with image quality, but the second proof should arrive soon and then you can order your copy!

Thanks for reading!

Window Star

Now Boo Radley has a puffy ego, walking around all "The Girl said my name on Window!" Hmp.

Do you know what is on a truck on its way to my house right now? I will tell you! It is a proof of Two Cats Magazine! Hamper scamper!!!

Neighborhood Watch

Thu, 05 Apr 2012 15:50:08 GMT

Here's another ad that's going to run in Two Cats Magazine. Boo Radley didn't have any money to pay for ad space, so he said I could have the cat bed for a whole month! That seems fair.

This week I am ordering a proof of Two Cats Magazine, and ordering information will be up soon! For you, the reader! I hope you're still excited about this magazine. We've been working so very hard on it and I really think you'll like it.

Game of Chairs

Thu, 29 Mar 2012 15:55:54 GMT

Are you excited? Game of Chairs comes back on this Sunday. I'm not supposed to watch it because it's for grown-ups but The Girl just makes me cover my eyes for most of it.

Thinks he's SO clever.

Window is turned on here and it's the best. Did you turn on window yet? There are like a million birds out there!

Have you seen those commercials where the guy from the Sopranos yells at you about tequila? Why is he so mad?!

I hope you're having a good day! The Guy turned on Window and New Cat and I have been meowing at birds all week. Thanks for reading my comics!

Deputy Marshal Radley

Do you ever watch the show Justified? It's New Cat's favorite. He talks about it all the time, so I drew this for him (it didn't make him stop talking about it all the time). Check out The Guy's scary knuckle tats!

Quality Control

Thu, 01 Mar 2012 17:45:44 GMT

Every Hey Pais catnip mouse goes through a five-point inspection. We have extremely high standards of quality! Get your own catnip mice at my Etsy store--I just got a new shipment so lots of colors are in stock.

She Loves Me, She Loves Me Not

Hmp.

Did you have a nice Valentine's Day? The Guy got me some TISSUE PAPER and CARDBOARD BOXES so I was pretty happy.

How Cold Is It?

It would have to be PRETTY cold.

Tinker Tailor Soldier Mouse

Thu, 26 Jan 2012 16:42:14 GMT

This year, like the last few years, I'll be drawing comics about the Best Picture nominees. I've only seen two of the nine, so I need to get to work! Since this wasn't up for Best Picture, I figured I could draw it now. That mouse was a sneaky traitor!

Did you order your valentines yet?

HEY PAIS VALENTINES 2012!

Fri, 20 Jan 2012 16:38:19 GMT

Hello everyone! It is time once again for

HEY PAIS VALENTINES!

I have worked really hard on these and I hope you will like them!

Like last year, these valentines are printed quarter-page size (4.25" by 5.5") on pretty colored cardstock! If you want all white cardstock, so you can color them yourself, just let me know.

On to the pictures! As is now tradition, I have two different sets. The first set is regular Hey Pais cat jokes, perfect for any cat lover or Hey Pais fan. They come printed on four pretty shades of pink and lavender.

You can get them uncolored, as above, or hand-colored by me with colored pencils.

The other set is about DOCTOR WHO! The Doctor Who valentines come printed on four shades of light blue:

Or they can also be hand-colored:

The cards look like this on the back:

Envelope Sets - NEW COLOR! Each set contains four TARDIS BLUE A2 envelopes, the perfect size for the valentines. They are stamped with the Hey Pais Seal of Approval in a darker blue ink. You will also get sparkly star stickers to seal or decorate your envelopes.

For size and prettiness reference, here is a picture of my paw with a valentine:

Now I will tell you how to buy these!

Here you can choose whether you want hand-colored (paw-colored) valentines or black-and-white valentines. Remember to pick whether you live in North America or on another continent; shipping is included. The cards ship in a sturdy cardboard envelope, so they'll get to you safely! In the text box tell me if you want Cat Jokes, Doctor Who Jokes, or if you bought more than one set you can get a combination. They get cheaper the more you buy! If you want envelopes, just add that to your cart before you check out. You can get as many envelope sets as you want, just update the quantity on the checkout page!

Last year, the demand for paw-colored valentines was overwhelming. I also miscalculated how long it takes me to color each set! I did nothing but color valentines for two weeks. This year, I'm raising the price to reflect the amount of time and care I spend on coloring. Thank you for your understanding!

Black and White Valentines -- North America:

Black and White Valentines -- Rest of the World:

Hand-Colored Valentines--Rest of the World:

Envelope and Sticker Sets:

I hope all of this makes sense! If you have any questions, or you want something special, just email me! pais at hey pais dot com. I will help you with whatever you need!

Older valentines are still available in limited quantities (2011, 2010, 2009). If you want any of those, just email me please and I'll set it up for you!

Thanks for reading all of this! I love you guys and I love Valentine's Day!!

Making Valentines

Thu, 19 Jan 2012 17:13:53 GMT

GET READY! Tomorrow I'm announcing the 2012 Hey Pais valentines! Are you excited? Because I am excited! I'm no DOCTOR but I think you'll be happy when you see WHO is on them. (Hint.)

Thanks for reading!

The November Issue

Thu, 12 Jan 2012 18:07:43 GMT

Really we should be commended for every getting ANYTHING done. We're still working on Two Cats Magazine, when we're not napping. I'm ALSO working on this year's valentines, look for an announcement about that soon!

DID YOU KNOW: Today is New Cat's birthday! Happy birthday, New Cat, you are three.

What does Boo Radley want for his birthday?

Thu, 05 Jan 2012 15:32:50 GMT

What a goober! But can you blame him? He's only two (almost three).

We are working hard on finishing Two Cats Magazine for you! Meanwhile, over on my Facebook page, I'm conducting a poll. If you haven't voted already, it would be awesome if you did!

Thanks for reading my comics. Happy New Year!!!

Two Cats Magazine: Cat Spit No. 5

Thu, 22 Dec 2011 22:02:59 GMT

If your cat licks your nose, you are now wearing the finest fragrance known to nature. Previously.

I hope you all have a nice Christmas! Don't forget to give your cat extra treats and pets. I love you all!

Two Cats Magazine Gift Guides

Thu, 15 Dec 2011 21:22:58 GMT

I hope this gift guide helps you this holiday season!

I am sorry to tell you that I won't have Two Cats Magazine ready for you for Christmas. It is taking longer than I expected, but I hope that's okay with you because it means the best possible end product! Some of the features (like the one above) are holiday-related, but I think they'll still be fun to read in January. AND: next December. It's still a chronicle of the stuff I was doing and thinking about as me and The Guy and The Girl and New Cat prepare for Christmas. (Did you know: there's A TREE which is INSIDE MY HOUSE brb I'm going to chomp it some more.)

Thank you all for reading my comics! You guys are all nice in my book.

Two Cats Magazine: Health and Beauty

Thu, 08 Dec 2011 20:11:47 GMT

A Two Cats Magazine preview! Remember that this time of year, Santa is checking to see if your forepaws are clean. So keep them extra clean!

I hope you're having a good day. It is supposed to maybe SNOW here so I am making a lot of biscuits in advance. It never hurts to be prepared.

Two Cats Magazine Preview: Point/Counterpoint

Thu, 01 Dec 2011 19:43:42 GMT

Another Two Cats Magazine preview! Me and Boo Radley have a debate. You can guess from the picture which side he's on.

The magazine will be done soon! Since I decided to do the whole thing in full color, it's taking a bit longer than a month, but I'll have information about how you can buy it as soon as I can.

Did you know? This week I'm offering free shipping in my Etsy shop! Use the coupon code LOAFMAS. It ends Monday, so get your holiday shopping done early! There's still time to order a custom cameo to put on or under your tree.

Have a good rest of your week and stay warm!

Entertaining Tips!

Wed, 23 Nov 2011 18:36:39 GMT

Here's a one-page preview of a feature that will be in Two Cats Magazine! I hope you find it tantalizing.

If you're in the United States, happy Thanksgiving! Remember to be careful about feeding table scraps to your cat. Have a fun long weekend!!
