Can Cat and Bird Be Friends?

(3) K-3 Cat: "Are you a bird?" Bird: "Yes, I am." Cat: "Then I must eat you." In this faultless comedy-sketch-like dialogue, Bird must make a case for being spared (e.g., "I know the best car for a cat to hide under"). The stark black-and-white-on-brown art is relieved in a final, color-spattered spread that shows the should-be adversaries at (messy) peace: "PAINTING?! I love painting!"
