One of her pets, Bobby, was put down. I think Bobby was an inspiration for one of her pets in the comic.

This is what she said:

"We performed the necropsy on Bobby today. The main lesion was seen in the lungs. He had multiple small nodules throughout the lung lobes, which were most likely a form of cancer as we discussed (probably lymphoma) that spread to the lungs. He also had a fair amount of fluid in his chest and abdomen again. There would have been no treatment to cure this."

I added that the comic was published in Keenspot's 2006 FCBD book and its daily unique visitor stats. I also erased some of the lines that were opinions more than facts. I'm not sure if I did it right, but I hope it helps. Starlinex 14:52, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notability

The notability of this webcomic has been questioned: I beleive Candi is at least as notable as many webcomics included in wikipedia. Granted, it does need clean-up, but with a little work it should look somewhat ecyclopaedic. Estiveo 00:48, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Publication through a well-known and independent publisher (e.g., a webzine) qualifies per WP:WEB; Keenspot, with a circulation much larger than most webzines, surely qualifies; ergo "is a Keenspot comic" establishes notability fairly early in the article. Accordingly, I'm going to replace the notability tag with a cleanup tag, because it is crufty and does need cleanup. Balancer 06:18, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
Seems that Dragonfiend doesn't think Keenspot is notable distributor. It doesn't make sense. girly's page was put up for deletion a while ago, and it was overturned when the comic was considered notable because it used to be a Keenspot comic. Why would this be any different?Starlinex 03:50, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
Dragonfiend does not, so far as I know, but most other editors agree with WP:WEB as written, which does not (incidentally) invoke notability (Keenspot is notable), but rather independence and being well known for the criterion under question. Balancer 05:10, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
