Mama asked if she could tell a story about Angel max on Final Friday Feature. I said yes, of course mama. Go for it! I would like to know why Max got to sleep on the bed and I do not.
It was 1986, Angel Max was 8 months old. Each night we went on a long walk. One night just at dusk, we were 5 houses from home, and suddenly Max dashed under a parked car barking, snapping that leash taunt and nearly pulling Daddy into a face plant!
Suddenly, out from under the car came the Big Boxing Bougie AKA as the neighbors huge gray tabby.
Neither Mama or Daddy had any idea Bougie was under the car until he exploded into Max's face and was boxing and hissing loudly, we knew he was saying, come on dog, ya wanna piece of me? I'll give you a piece of me.
We were laughing and trying to keep Beau off the cat and the cat off Max, and Bougie was hissing/spitting and boxing like Mohammed Ali, he actually followed us down the road about 20 feet, us backing up, dragging Max down the street, bougie still boxing, walking on his hind feet. Max with ear splitting barking. It all ended well, no cat/dog/human was harmed, and we often remember this and laugh once again...THE END
Mama says to tell you, she had no photos because it was before she had a camera or a cell phone. She could see it in her head, but did not know how to draw a boxing cat or a dog diving under a car.

she asked Bing Creator to draw a tabby cat standing on hind legs, boxing at a German shepherd. She though she could use the shape of the shepherd and try to make it look like Max. Below are the two drawings she used to figure out how to draw the cartoon above.
