Peter and Company is a furry webcomic by artist Jonathan Ponikvar. The series launched on January 1, 2005 and can be read in its entirety for free online at here.The comic is listed as semi-autobiographical, as it is loosely based on stories from the author's childhood. The plot revolves around Peter, a 12-year-old cat who is having a difficult time surviving through childhood. One day he makes a new friend in the form of Seth, a white-suited duck. Peter quickly realizes that Seth is only visible to him, providing the backdrop for the rest of the story. Seth follows Peter around in order to offer him advice without directly interfering and guidance through the various plotlines. There are other children who have special friends in the world as well, and each of them can see the others' companions and even talk to them. Seth and the rest are referred to only as "Guardians," leaving the theological undertones up to the interpretation of the viewer.The first 75 strips of the current comic are presented in a four-panel newspaper format. After that point it changes to a full-page comic with varying panel layouts. A few comics are also in color, which are presented as bonuses for donations made by the readers (a process which ended in the mid-2010's — most pages are now posted in color by default). Those who bought the first book were given a bonus story called "How Peter met Seth", a mini comic that detailed the days before Seth's reassignment to Peter, but on February 12, 2024, the story was fully released to the public and became the starting pages for the comic itself.A sequel called Peter and Whitney was released on May 2, 2016, which skips ahead to the characters in their college days after the guardians have left them.

Gone Horribly Right: Peter attempts to crash Chelsea's slumber party with the help of the worms. Despite Persephoni stopping Peter from doing the deed, the worms complete it, and Peter ends up taking the flak from Chelsea. Chelsea sets up a prank for Peter to give Whitney a special perfume to sabotage him. Whitney is allergic to said substance, and while Chelsea does succeed in messing up Peter's gift, it affects Whitney far worse than expected and she ends up going to the hospital. Tracy gets Peter to fall in line and do all the work and research for their project to preserve her grade while claiming he did nothing to contribute…he does it all as she expected, but she didn’t realize that he knew next to nothing about what their assignment was about and so she ended up destroying her own GPA for it.

The Cameo
 Peter and Company (Webcomic) / int_1b65dfad
comment
The Cameo: Sammy MacLean from Las Lindas makes a cameo appearance in the comic on strip #202 as Peter's substitute teacher during his class project with Tracy. Countless other cameos appear throughout the backgrounds of the series, as Jonathan has a long-running tradition of offering free cameo slots for the original character designs of his readers in order to fill out scenes with larger crowd shots. Each page that features cameos also includes a line of credits in the commentary listing the owners of each character that has been featured.

Furry Confusion
 Peter and Company (Webcomic) / int_27a40541
comment
Furry Confusion: The comic features anthropomorphic cats, among other species. Yet Korgar has several non-sentient housecats ("minions") that he keeps in his desk and brings to restaurants. Peter, being a cat, freaked out upon discovering them in the desk. But apparently, it's an accepted thing in-universe, as the wolf waitress who served Korgar at the pizza place had no problem with him owning cats or bringing them there. And then there's the fact that Chelsea has a pet bunny (who's really Persephoni, her Guardian). It's also revealed that the other workers at Jeff's post office and see Eddy walking around in his standard dog form, and seem to have no qualms at all about the fact that he is able to talk.

Kick the Dog: Chelsea has done a few things to Peter during her Jerkass phase, from chucking an iceball at Peter to sabotaging his gift at Whitney's Birthday party and blaming him for causing a severe allergic reaction. Peter goes out of his way with the worms to sabotage and ruin Chelsea's sleepover party for no other reason than boredom. Needless to say, it doesn't end well for him.

Blessed with Suck
 Peter and Company (Webcomic) / int_3c3f28a5
comment
Blessed with Suck: Being an Elite Guardian is shown to be even more challenging than a standard one, since it means you are severely limited in your ability to directly communicate (and thus guide/protect) your child, since you are assigned to them without their knowledge as a form of physical comfort as a pet, rather than as a friend. This also makes it harder on the child, since while a normal assignment would forget they ever had a Guardian after they are no longer needed, they will always remember loving (and losing) a pet.

Took a Level in Kindness: After the perfume incident, Chelsea becomes noticeably nicer, and by the time she loses Pearl, she quickly goes through a rapid character transformation away from being a bully to Peter, and by the time the sequel series comes around, the two are shown to be good friends.

Put on a Bus: After their unfortunate encounter with Eddy, Dr. Victor Munchkinn and Dr. Fritz aren't seen for the rest of the comic after fleeing Peter's house besides a few cameos later in the comic. According to the author, these characters have since been abandoned and their arc is considered finished as-is.
