Trench warfare

I'm tying together Guy Fawkes and the upcoming Remembrance day (11th November) this year. The thought occurred to me that animals would consider the fireworks to be like missiles and guns going off, and this led to this series of first world war related strips, with the cats hiding in a trench while the explosions go on around them...

Corporal Jones is a reference to Dad's Army. I'd like to dedicate this strip to David Croft who has just died.
