My Entry in the New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest #505

Here is my entry in the New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest #505 for January 11, 2016. The drawing is by Mick Stevens.

"Have you seen the new cat or the new dog?"

These alternate captions didn't deserve a bite:

"Why the long face?" "Well, look who came crawling in!" "This is a fine time to come crawling in!" "Your habits are positively prehistoric." "You're not home until the tail is in." "Have you seen Fluffy?" "Have you seen Fluffy No. 2?"

Note: Last week Tom Cheney showed us the life of a modern working woman. My caption was a little stiff. Carry home the results ofContest #504.

Mick Stevens has created some preposterously challenging caption contest cartoons. Please don't encourage him.
