Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

MODERATORS
That does not need to be the case (seeing that you probably meant this in jest, I still will take it on). Assuming the cat is already a higher dimensional being, which I feel is valid as it can move between them.
Imagine a Cube going through a 2D plane. You would see a cross section of the cube depending on the angle it goes through. The same would be the case for a hypercube in 4D and 3D (different effect as different cross section though).
So I would argue the comic is correct.
Yeah it's a joke, it would all depend.
Can you imagine if you had a 4D cat and it just presented normally most of the time then one day rotated or moved along a 4D axis? It would be terrifying.
I've played 4D golf so I feel like I'm qualified as an expert in this space (seriously though great game and really helps with understanding this kind of stuff)
