Nailed It
Posted on May 14, 2013 by Celesse
Cats, man. Cats. I know a lot of you guys had settled on the name Patches for the kitten, but though it was cute, it wasn't quite unique enough. Retrokitty was another good one, but he's not always going to be playing old stuff. I settled on Glitch because I think it suits him, so I hope you guys like it.

  2. Manuel8123

    Hahahahaha Lol Glitch, that is an awesome name :D

    1. assasincat49

      any cat with a Game Boy is considered awesome

    2. Espurr used Post

      Glich used SYSTEM ERROR! It’s Super Effective!

  3. perzoe

    Better than ‘Barf’!

    1. Pernoda

      But it’s short for Barfolomew.

  7. Carmen

    can’t stop giggling at the 4th and 5th panels hehehehe

  8. carlosfer2201

    I was wondering when you would announce his name in the comic, you had already named him publicly in the character’s info part of the site. Damn Spoilers.
    Great name though.

  9. Formedras

    Glitch, hammer! Flashlight! Jackhammer!
    Glitch, STOP!

    1. Sanbai

      Glitch, ANYTHING! *shower pole*

  10. PgFalcon

    Not Barfolomew then?

    1. Celesse
      Administrator

      As tempting as that is…

    2. Formedras

      You want to name a CAT Barfolomew? Really?

      1. Daboielek

        Sounds like a name for a dog

  11. Alice @ Nom Nom Cat

    LMAO nervous vomit. Poor Glitch. Glad he gets to stay!

  12. Halcreix

    Gamercat and Glitch, both names sound pretty good (“G&G”) xD

  13. gus

    but what is the gamercat’s name? duhn duhn duhn!!!!

    1. Kulu

      Gamercat. Duh!

      1. assasincat49

        Gamercat and Glitch the dynamic duo.has bit of a ring 2 it

        1. Thadeu

          Like Nerd & Noob (a comedy youtube series here in Brazil)

  14. MaxusFox23

    He was playing the first Pokemon, and in there you find MissingNo, which it’s … well, a glitch. So yeah, quite smart there :)

    1. Marisa Mockery

      I was just thinking. Makes total sense to me. And Patches doesn’t really match the theme of the comic anyway, considering the main character’s named Gamercat (possibly)….

      1. Dave

        Ah, but patches are made by game developers all the time. (^-^) It’s actual gaming terminology. Especially when DLC is announced, patches are often included with the added content to make them more compatible with the source code.

        1. Axew13 ★3DS★

          True!
          But Patch would make more sense!

    2. Dralcax

      I think he’s actually the Mew Glitch.

      Mew!

  15. EpicElf

    AAARGHH!!!! Too cute for my eyes!!!!! >(^o^)<

    And I would preorder plushies of these to the minute they came out……..

    1. assasincat49

      Glitch has me begging for morr

  16. EpicElf

    PLEASE MAKE PLUSHIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I would buy them for all my friends!!!!!! (^__^)

    1. assasincat49

      NEED PLUSHIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! >(-.-)<

    2. Da da daaa da

      Plushies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    3. Da da daaa da

      Plushies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!$!!!!!

  17. Cddmanful

    I love Glitch’s face in panel three, when he’s the first to realize what’s coming up….(>v<)

  18. Xaromir

    Darn, now he remindes me of Vanellope. xD

  19. whyisitincapitals

    Lucky he didn’t name him Barf.

  20. Unstable Shapeshifter

    Really, if you’re an animal lover, you have to be okay with a little puke.

  21. m49913

    I LOVE the name Glitch! Was just reading up in Glitch Hop earlier. It was a sign. * prostrates self on ground*

  22. Meowface

    Well Glitches need Patches.

    1. Celesse
      Administrator

      That sounds like a four-year-old’s Valentine’s card.

      1. fenyxshalo

        [IMG]http://i42.tinypic.com/35kjwxs.jpg[/IMG]

        1. fenyxshalo

          Or this, rather: http://i42.tinypic.com/35kjwxs.jpg

          Stupid image tag.

      2. Dave

        Hmm? Perhaps a new female kitten named Patches becomes smitten with Glitch?

        *Ahem* Dear Ms. Celesse, please include more female characters. They are just as prominent as male gamers in society and they need a little shout-out too.*wink**wink*

        1. thorn5tar

          I think that’s a wonderful idea! And it’s true. I’m a girl and I love to play video games.

        2. Celesse
          Administrator

          I actually have a girl gamer cat planned. She’ll come around eventually.

        3. Numberplay

          Wasn’t there one in the Journey comic?

        4. EpicElf

          A GIRL?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! OMG, you just MADE MY DAY, Celesse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!! *screams with ecstasy* (^O^)

          So happy right now…. You turned my rubbishy day into a bunch of sunshine and rainbows and — KITTENS!! :P

          Thanks again for your comic. Makes me chuckle every time… ;)

          Will be lookin’ out for that cute cat! (D__D)

        5. Ciro

          The Journey Cat? :3 I still Remember Her xD It would be cool

        6. DShiznit

          I think this is already getting rather cat-heavy. The girl character should be a dog, but not just any dog, a scary-looking pug who noone wants anything to do with until they actually talk to her and discover she’s really a very nice person. Then they feel like assholes for shunning her.

        7. Dave

          *Thumbs up* 20% cooler

  23. Heather

    PERFECT name choice!!!!

  24. az-gamer

    Nice introduction! Again, love your style and the manifestation of the characters!

  25. cybercatlotus

    the look on gamercats face in the fourth panel^^ awesome, also an awesome comic :D thx and keep up the awesome work *thumpsup*

    P.S.: Did I write “awesome” about three times?
    Doesn’t matter, can’t write it often enough.
    Awesome^^

  26. FierceRogue

    Awesome…simply awesome.

  27. Lady Courage

    rofl Glitch, that is absolutely perfect. So cute. XD This page made me LOL.

  28. sleepingkirby

    I know it’s just a webcomic and it’s better not to think too much into it but… does the human call gamercat, gamercat?

    1. Celesse
      Administrator

      Yes, his name is Gamercat.

  29. BlueAnubis

    *BLARG!*
    ………
    That is downright adorable. I’m keeping him.

  30. NekoHyuga

    Imagine Glitch playing online videogames and his ID be: Glitch. Everyone would be like: Damn Glitch!! xD

  31. Dartpaw86

    So, they’re officially brothers now :3

  32. skyewalker38

    i like

  33. Nanna

    Glitch! awsome! but… what is gamercat’s name? :)

    1. FierceRogue

      GaMERCat!

  34. Dave

    Just out of curiosity, did Glitch puke because of the 3DS’s effect on the eyes? Or was it because of nervousness? Just a thought…

    1. Axew13 ★3DS★

      Neither. Must’ve caught rabies while in that trash can.

    2. Celesse
      Administrator

      Actually, it was just a random puke that cats seem to do.

      1. =P

        hairball?

  35. poniesss

    … That is one laidback guy. I wouldn’t react so well to a mysterious kitty puking in front of me. Kudos to him!

    And sympathy for the newly-christened Glitch, who needs Tums.

    1. Dartpaw86

      *tummy rubs*

    2. Celesse
      Administrator

      As a cat owner, you get used to it. Cats puke at random times for seemingly no reason and, if you’ve owned one long enough, when they do that you just sigh instead of freaking out about it.

      1. Dartpaw86

        I think he meant…

        The owner might be scared that a random sick cat is in his house. I mean cats living on the streets have all kinds of diseases, so it wouldn’t be that strange to be cautious.

        But I guess his attitude is. “Sick cat in my house? No biggie, just get him his shots and new pet”

        1. Celesse
          Administrator

          True, but I’d rather avoid the drama of the reality of a potentially sick stray cat moving into one’s house since this is a light-hearted comic. So I’m chocking this up to living in an idealistic world where it’s normal and nothing to be too concerned about.

        2. Dartpaw86

          :-3 I agree, this is a fun/silly comic that doesn’t need that kind of seriousness.

  36. GamerNave

    Glitch’s first impression was so awkwardly cute for some reason.

  37. Cameron

    Cool name! Glitch actually is a pretty cool song. Has the gamer cat shown glitch the new pokemon game? lol

  38. CatInaPokeBall

    At least he didn’t claw anything…

  39. Dartpaw86

    Is his owner the guy from Penny Arcade? O_o

    1. Celesse
      Administrator

      Uh, no. Pretty sure Gabe has much longer bangs.

      1. Dartpaw86

        Okay =3

  40. Red.Yun

    Glitch= and Glitch says Mew instead of meow
    The Mew glitch of pokemon *-*

  41. BOOM DeadSH0T

    I love it!! X3

  42. Dartpaw86

    It suddenly hit me. I would love for these to be animated into webcartoons :D

    I really am curious as to what GaMERCaT and Glitch’s voices would sound like.
    GaMERCat… would probably sound like a teen, deep but still young. Glitch I can only imagine him sounding either like “Spike” from MLP:FIM or “Tails” from the old Sonic cartoons.

    1. Codex

      no cat bug from bravest warriors

      1. Dartpaw86

        Yet another show that doesn’t air in Canada :'(

        Though for a minute I thought you were referencing the novels “Warriors” which people constantly confuse my name for. (Dartpaw is used in the books but I thought of the name on my own, I never read the books and it’s just a coincidence)

        1. GeorgeseDaFox

          Bravest Warriors is a Youtube show…

        2. Dartpaw86

          The universe just redeemed itself in awesomeness <3

  43. Memory

    This is just like my kittens, I come home ask how their day was and bam! One or both of them pukes then stares at me. I tell them they are lucky they are cute, clean it up. Then I lay a towel down on the floor in the sun beam. When the sun moves I gently drag the towel to keep them in the sun beam. Lather rinse and repeat.

    1. assasincat49

      i used to have cats in georgia

  44. Numberplay

    Good thing it’s not a dog, it would start eating his own vomit.

  45. Siscko

    Incredible… Vomit computes to Calling him Glitch… i need to do a study…

  46. Dan

    I thought that the human would be your projection.

  47. Amelanduil

    Glitch is holding a TM… I wonder which one…

    1. DrgnZip

      Spit-up

  48. Brevity

    I think a lot of us were hoping for Derpy

  49. cndnect

    Who announces that they’re home to their cat?

    1. Dartpaw86

      A really awesome owner, or Jon Arbuckle.

    2. Celesse
      Administrator

      I do.

      1. Chris13isawesome

        I don’t. My cat would just hide because he doesn’t like hugs XD

    3. Dartpaw86

      Actually I do that when my Dog greets me at the door.

    4. Meep

      Everyone. Who doesn’t?

  50. blazofgold

    This cat has strange resemblance to Sakamoto-kun from Nichijou. Perhaps that could be a comic idea?

  51. Solar

    Just found this awesome comic! Please keep it up!

    Oh, and as I use The Webcomic List to keep track of those comics I read, I noticed that The Gamercat profile is somewhat lacking in the image area. Perhaps you can fix this with some awesome gamercat imagery.
    http://www.thewebcomiclist.com/p/21652/The-Gamercat

  52. mnmega

    So will we finally learn GamerCat’s real name?

    1. Dartpaw86

      It’s GamerCat

  53. MaskCat

    I always think that the owner of gamercat would be a girl XD

  54. Bushmaster

    Found your comic today, read the archives.
    Now it’s on my list of watched comics.
    Really great work, love the art style and the light heartedness.

  55. Codex

    he shouldn’t of had all those strawberry muffins

    1. assasincat49

      or mabye he had som bad catfish

      1. Codex

        true but most likely muffins

  56. mr.inoue37

    gamercat and glitch is kind reminds me of toro inoue and kuro

  57. [email protected]

    i think you should make one where GaMERCaT shows glitch a new pokemon

    1. kittycat138

      YEAH you should

      1. assasincat49

        either that or get gamercat a girlfriend

  58. Marscaleb

    Look cute: Mission accomplished.

    Actually I want to commend you for being honest about the nature of cats.

    (Hmm, I wonder if I should change your art sample on my links page to use that fourth panel…)

  59. Marscaleb

    By the way, this is actually a surprisingly true story. Our cat once invited over a stray into our house. He lived in our basement, running and hiding from us all the time.

  60. Yzarro

    There’s already a video game webcomic cat named Patches, anyways: http://fanboys-online.com/

  61. Yzarro

    Also, are we ever going to see the owner’s face?

  62. jorge

    at least not let other surprise on the carpet

      1. The Governator

        Why are the anonymice a main character when they only appeared in one single comic strip?

        1. cybercatlotus

          When did someone say that they’re main characters?

  87. SnackieChan

    I want MOAR GLITCH!!!

  88. GamerRaptor

    did he eat the disc he was holding?

    1. assasincat49

      hes a cat not a retard

  89. MrMonster26

    The creator should make a girl character (who loves games) for GAmercat later down the road. Who agrees?

    1. cybercatlotus

      Read the comments, she actually planned it :)

  90. Eridan

    I Wish the cat would be named MissingCat as a reference to missing no.

  91. Soul

    I just marathon’d this whole webcomic series, freaking cracked up at almost every one, this is great! :D

  92. The Governator

    OMG GLITCH LOOKS JUST LIKE JETPACK KITTY FROM TECHNO KITTEN ADVENTURE!!!!

  98. Crysis

    I MUST GET A KITTEN AND NAME IT GLITCH

  99. OlzoLane

    In my opinion you should do a strip about Animal Crossing. I understand if you haven’t played it, but i would still love it.

  100. biospark120

    Is glich a boy or a girl?

  101. Heyoceama

    Wonder whose the better gamer, GC or his owner? I bet if he knew his cats could play video games he would be all like “Ok kitties time for some 3 player!!!!!”

    1. Heyoceama

      P.S. I want a cat to play video games with too!!!!!

  102. Heyoceama

    Mew? Subtle humor is subtle!!!!!!! XD

    1. Heyoceama

      If the joke was intended props. If not I wont explain it because that ruins it.

  103. NEKOmizu

  104. Potato

    Glitch is 100% my favorite character

  105. Toaoflight3690
