Ollie and Jacomo are back!

Ollie and Jacomo


So I decided YES! on Ollie and Jacomo, they are starting their adventures tomorrow, Monday!

My Tomversation cartoon is on hiatus and Ollie and Jacomo are doing their thing now. You can find links below each cartoon for social media sites, if you’d like to follow them daily on Facebook or Instagram and there is also a subscription link, where you can have them in your email inbox daily. Or you can just go to the website and see what they are up to there daily.

We last left them off at the Paris Olympics this past summer, now they are home in Coconut Cove. Today they are dealing with the time change due to Daylight Saving Time, like so many of us.

I was explaining in the last post how I read about a guy pretending to be a cat on Reddit for years and people loved it, they behaved as if he was a real talking cat. I thought that would make a good comic strip, although there is Garfield and Heathcliff, Top Cat and Felix. But I remembered I had animal friends – Ollie and Jacomo, and decided to bring them back.

Hope to see you over there – OllieAndJacomo.com – they are waiting for you!

Guy Pretends to Be a Cat

Ollie And Jacomo


I read a thing on Reddit where this lady wants to divorce her husband because she found out he is secretly roll playing as a cat on Reddit! I think she is joking about the divorce, but she is quite surprised to find this fact out about being a cat after him doing it for three years!

She says, “He’s popular. Like top posts, awards, thousands of followers. People genuinely think he’s a cat. He has INTERNET FRIENDS that think they’re talking to some sassy British shorthair named Mr. Whiskers. He gets into fights with other cat accounts about territory and kibble brands.”

She doesn’t like it but I love this whole thing! I want to know his handle so I can follow him. It sounds like he has a great imagination, and I want to follow that.

It first reminded me of a voice over thing – like he is being the cat from behind the scenes for a cartoon – you know, being a cartoon cat. Then I thought of it as cosplaying, like people do at ComicCons.

Then I thought it would be funny to draw a cat cartoon, making him say funny things in a daily comic panel. And it reminded me that I already have cartoon animals – Ollie And Jacomo, who I haven’t visited in a while – since the summer Olympics, I believe. So I may bring them back for a bit. You know, take a break from my Tomversation comic panel and spend time with Ollie and Jacomo.

I’ll think it over this week. Stay tooned.
