John Yuskaitis has a new set of comics out, and they follow two very different animals through some very strange days. The creator of ‘Saved & Spoiled’ has released 25 comics about Wilson, a rescue pup, and Dewey, a pedigreed kitty, each with their own ways of seeing the world.
The comics cover treats, vet visits, and ax-wielding squirrels, among other situations that probably make perfect sense to the two pets themselves. Yuskaitis says a lot of ‘Saved & Spoiled’ comes from the funny little things pets do every day, and the personalities that make living with them so entertaining.
Wilson And Dewey
Wilson is the rescue pup, full of endless enthusiasm. Dewey is the pedigreed kitty who has to put up with him. The contrast between the two is the engine of the comics.
Wilson brings energy and enthusiasm wherever he goes, while Dewey is the pedigreed kitty who has to put up with him. Their relationship is built on that difference, and the comics play it for laughs again and again.
What Makes The Comics Work
Yuskaitis says a lot of ‘Saved & Spoiled’ is inspired by the funny little things our pets do every day and the personalities that make living with them so entertaining. That mix of observation and personality is what carries the series. The comics are not just jokes about animals being silly; they are portraits of two specific pets with distinct voices.
The comics also show the two animals taking on treats, vet visits, and ax-wielding squirrels, among other situations that probably make perfect sense to them. That range of subjects — from everyday snacks to a squirrel with an axe — gives the series room to move between the mundane and the absurd.
The Full Set Of 25
The set runs across a wide range of situations, and each comic captures a small moment that anyone who shares a home with a pet will recognize.
- Treats
- Vet visits
- Ax-wielding squirrels
- Plenty of other situations that probably make perfect sense to them
Each comic stands on its own, but together they build a portrait of two pets whose lives could not be more different. The contrast between Wilson’s endless enthusiasm and Dewey’s situation is the thread that holds the series together.

Why These Comics Land
The appeal of ‘Saved & Spoiled’ is simple: it takes two familiar kinds of pets and lets them talk to each other. Wilson and Dewey are not just a dog and a cat. They are characters with distinct voices, and their relationship carries the humor.
The comics are a reminder that even the most ordinary moments can turn into something ridiculous. Anyone who lives with a dog or cat knows that, and Yuskaitis’s work captures it well.
The Bottom Line
The comics are a small pleasure, the kind of content that makes a quick visit worthwhile. They are funny, warm, and full of personality. Wilson and Dewey are not just pets in a frame. They are two friends who happen to live in the same house, and that friendship is the heart of the series.
