An environmental illustration or cartoon showing a dog chasing a ball.
The ball is the earth as a globe.
The intension of the illustration is to draw a link between pet ownership and the environment. It was originally drawn for a booklet about how to look after your pet in an environmentally responsible way.
The Covid-19 coronavirus pandemic has resulted in an epidemic of puppy buying.
Will the new owners still be pleased to have their new pets after the pandemic has ended?
A cat lying on a chair – with its owner telling it to pull its weight and get up and do some household chores.
A cat’s owner complaining that the cat is lazy and doesn’t earn its keep.
Notice the conspiratorial dog.
A dog opening a Christmas present or gift from its owner. The present is a stick
Pet owners often give Christmas gifts to their pets.
One of the points of this cartoon is that sometimes the simplest things are the most appreciated.
Another is that the gift doesn’t have to have cast any money.
