Larry, an ex-con, and his mother, Marjorie, start a website to register pets for After-Rapture care, hoping to collect insurance premiums but avoid actual work. Their plans go awry, and Larry is soon caring for fifteen cats. Larry would love to care for a dog, but all the dogs on earth have vanished. A call to pick up a cat from a deluxe country home changes Larry and Marjorie's lives. The homeowners have "gone up," leaving behind a yowling Siamese cat and a home full of amenities. Larry moves his mother, a friend and his cousins out to the Lucky Seven Ranch, only to turn up the world's last dog. As Larry and the bewildered dog become YouTube stars, a televangelist sees an opportunity to build a new empire, based on scripture, donations and possession of the Lucky Seven's canine. After a lifetime of losing, Larry must take on a smooth and accomplished media maven with all the world watching.

From an award-winning artist, a memoir of life with a difficult, beloved dog that will resonate with anybody who has ever had a less than perfectly behaved pet When Nicole Georges was sixteen she adopted Beija, a dysfunctional shar-pei/corgi mix—a troublesome combination of tiny and attack, just like teenaged Nicole herself. For the next fifteen years, Beija would be the one constant in her life. Through depression, relationships gone awry, and an unmoored young adulthood played out against the backdrop of the Portland punk scene, Beija was there, wearing her “Don’t Pet Me” bandana. Georges’s gorgeous graphic novel Fetch chronicles their symbiotic, codependent relationship and probes what it means to care for and be responsible to another living thing—a living thing that occasionally lunges at toddlers. Nicole turns to vets, dog whisperers, and even a pet psychic for help, but it is the moments of accommodation, adaption, and compassion that sustain them. Nicole never successfully taught Beija “sit,” but in the end, Beija taught Nicole how to stay.
