'''Housepets!''' is an [[anthropomorphic]] webcomic by RickGriffin; the first strip was posted in June 2008. According to RickGriffin, "the idea [for the comic] was conceived in 2006 and came to fruition in 2008."<br />
<br />
Usually, the comic centers around a purple cat and a brown dog; Grape and Peanut, respectively; and their "everyday" life, though each arc has its own main characters. Housepets! tends to use language and dialogue to its benefit, occasionally sprinkling an arc with light philosophy or an encouraging word, usually from Grape.<br />
<br />
== Main characters ==<br />
<br />
'''Peanut Butter Sandwich''', usually referred to as Peanut, is the dog of the Sandwich family. He has brown fur with a tan muzzle, chest and stomach. He wears a red collar adorned with a bone. Peanut is zealous, but is easily bored, "good-natured but on occasion has a one-track mind." He admits to like certain parts of cats (like the tail), but hasn't come out and said whether or not he is a "cat-lover." It's also fairly likely that Peanut is attracted to Grape, as shown in one strip, which concluded its arc.<br />
<br />
'''Grape Jelly Sandwich''', usually referred to as Grape, is the cat of the Sandwich family. She has purple fur with a white muzzle, chest and stomach. She wears a periwinkle-colored collar adorned with an orange fish. Between Peanut and Grape, Grape is more level-headed and rational, and she is different from Peanut because she lacks naivety. "Grape is lazy but creative, and sometimes a little too [[Wiktionary:pragmatic|pragmatic]]. Has a mean streak and knows how to defend herself. Also, she is probably the most responsible pet in the neighborhood, except when she doesn’t want to be," according to RickGriffin. Many readers assumed that Grape was male at the comic's beginning, probably much to RickGriffin's delight. However, it was revealed that Grape is indeed female. Grape seems to be pretty wise when it comes to giving advice to Peanut, though often the wisdom is lost on him. Grape is good at taking care of problems when they arise, despite her laziness.<br />
<br />
== Supporting/minor characters ==<br />
<br />
'''Mr.''' & '''Mrs. Sandwich''' are Peanut and Grape's owners and "parents." The are conscious of Peanut and Grapes anthropomorphic qualities. Mr. Sandwich has never appeared in a comic to date, and Mrs. Sandwich has been shown only from the nose down. All in all, "they’re nice people, but they weren’t sure they were ready for children, so they got some pets instead. Hoo boy."<br />

<div style="float:right">[[Image:Good-ol-dogs-club.PNG|175px|thumb|From top, counterclockwise: Rex, Fox, Bino, Peanut]]</div>'''Bino and Joey''' are brothers, but they really don't have much in common. Bino is the older of the two, and is the leader of the neighborhood's dog club, The Good Ol' Dogs' Club (Peanut was kicked out of this club when he showed Bino & Crew the picture he drew). Bino, in general, does not have kind tendencies... nor does he have much intelligence, "but he knows when to defer to someone smarter than him. Which is usually most of the other pets."<br />
<br />
Joey was the runt of his litter, and thus was, and is, often ignored. It was revealed that Joey is a fanatical cat-lover to a point that frightens Peanut when he shows Joey the picture. It's also known that occasionally Joey [[fursuit|dresses like a cat]] and roams the neighborhood.<br />
<br />
'''Rex and Fox''' are two members of The Good Ol' Dogs' Club. Fox is the most intelligent of the three members and Rex is the largest and strongest. All the members of The Good Ol' Dogs' Club got involved in [[Wikipedia:The Game (mind game)|The Game]] (my apologies...) during an arc, but eventually forgot about it.<br />
<br />
'''Tiger''' is an unfortunately-named dog that is the recipient of Bino & Crew's teasing. He is mentioned by Grape is a strip previous to his actual comic debut.<br />
