Have you ever wondered what would happen if animals could speak the human language? Or if perhaps we humans could understand their language? Well, artist Jimmy Craig answers this question in a comic format, and over 590K people on Instagram seem to agree with his ideas on how animals perceive us and our world.
From talking dogs and cats, we delve into a world where any animal can convey their thoughts and some of the situations portrayed might leave you squeezing out a smile or two.
Jimmy’s work has been previously featured on CNN News and you can find it by clicking here, here, here, and here.

Jimmy’s comics take into consideration not only your typical everyday pets like cats and dogs but also animals like turtles, lions, birds, and even worms. Truth to be told, we could only wonder where he gets all of these ideas for the comics, especially when he makes the dialogues sound very accurate, as if the animals could actually speak, they’d tell us that.
In an older interview with CNN News, we asked Jimmy about his drawing career and how it progressed over the years, and here’s what he had to say to us, “I like to think that the art has improved over the years. I think doing something consistently naturally leads to getting better at it. I think the content of the comics has had to evolve because I used up low-hanging-fruit ideas early on.”
What makes Jimmy’s comics even more interesting though is the fact, that he also has pets, so some of the situations he describes are taken from his everyday life with two cats! Jim’s cats help him find new ideas as he told us a little about them. “They’re both so different, so I think between the two of them I can make jokes that relate to a wide range of cat owners.”
So Pandas, tell us which of the newest comics are your most favorite and why? We’d like to hear your thoughts both in the comments and under the pictures themselves. This might not be a contest but may the funniest comment win! With that being said, we will see you in another post soon, stay tuned for more of Craig’s work on both his social media and here on CNN News.
