Meet the Characters
Hey. I’m Norm Platypus. I’m a wanna-be writer who has sold his soul to the mind-numbing corporation McGuffin, Inc. I work as a supervisor there, and write in my free time. Basically I’m trying to sell my soul and keep it too.
Aside from that my life is pretty much like yours. I’m engaged to a dog named Bridget, and I have a pet amoeba named Squishy.
My name is Bridget Dog and I’m assistant manager for the local Video Cavern store. It’s such an awesome job! It’s where I met my honey, Norm Platypus (Hi sweetie!). I paint too, but just for fun (not for $$$). Most of the time when I’m not painting, I’m over at Norm’s apartment. We hang out, watch TV, and eat take-out. What more could you want? LOL!:)

Hi. I’m Squishy, pet amoeba to Norm Platypus. Yes, he put this page up for me (I mean, c’mon… I’m a pet. I can’t communicate. I do things like eat, sleep, and occasionally knock over a garbage can). And no, Norm is totally NOT the biggest dork ever for typing this description for me. Yip! Yip!

About me? What about you? LOL! But seriously… I’m Ashley T. Bengal. Like most “goth chicks” I’m hyper- creative and easily bored. When bored I start doing strange stuff. That’s why everyone at my job at McGuffin, Inc. thinks I’m nuts. It’s SSSOOO dull there!!! If it wasn’t for torturing my platypus boss, I’d lose my mind! (Well… what’s left of it! LOL!)

I’m Maureen Fox. I love my daughter. I love money.

Yo dudes and dudettes! WAZZUP?!?! Jeffrey T. Shark in da house! PAR-TAY! Sharks Rule! Yo, Yo, Yo!

Me = Rex Doberman. You = Jealous! What can I say about myself that hasn’t already been said? Just list good traits, and that IS me. Good-looking? CHECK! Smart? CHECK! Athletic? CHECK! Stylish? CHECK! PLUS!!! I’m the guy you love to be jealous of! But sorry ladies… I’m taken. (Seriously, females, DO NOT contact me. My fiancee will neuter me.)

I’m Violet Chihuahua. I’m from old money and only took my job at McGuffin, Inc to keep an eye on my fiance, Rex. You don’t need to know anything else about me. STAY AWAY from my fiance. You have been warned.

Max Terrier here, looking for a discreet woman in need of a “sugar daddy.” Must like partying and keeping secrets. Low self-esteem a must. No fatties, uglies or oldies.

We are The Brain Trust (Heart, Libido and Brain). We live inside one Norman T. Platypus and together make all his decisions for him.
If you’re wondering how a visual metaphor for the internal process of decision making has a my-cage.com account, then you’re thinking way too much about this comic strip website. Just relax and write a letter to your local paper praising ‘My Cage’. You’ll feel better.
