Have you ever wondered what would happen if animals could speak the human language? Or if perhaps we humans could understand their language? Well, artist Jimmy Craig answers this question in a comic format, and over 590K people on Instagram seem to agree with his ideas on how animals perceive us and our world.

From talking dogs and cats, we delve into a world where any animal can convey their thoughts and some of the situations portrayed might leave you squeezing out a smile or two.

Jimmy's work has been previously featured on Bored Panda and you can find it by clicking here, here, here, and here.

Jimmy's comics take into consideration not only your typical everyday pets like cats and dogs but also animals like turtles, lions, birds, and even worms. Truth to be told, we could only wonder where he gets all of these ideas for the comics, especially when he makes the dialogues sound very accurate, as if the animals could actually speak, they'd tell us that.

    In an older interview with Bored Panda, we asked Jimmy about his drawing career and how it progressed over the years, and here's what he had to say to us, "I like to think that the art has improved over the years. I think doing something consistently naturally leads to getting better at it. I think the content of the comics has had to evolve because I used up low-hanging-fruit ideas early on."

    What makes Jimmy's comics even more interesting though is the fact, that he also has pets, so some of the situations he describes are taken from his everyday life with two cats! Jim's cats help him find new ideas as he told us a little about them. "They're both so different, so I think between the two of them I can make jokes that relate to a wide range of cat owners."

    One of my dogs can catch it, the other can't and wants it either handed to her or placed on the floor. Her face when we get it wrong... oops.

    I highly recommend David Attenborough's documentary "Birds of Paradise." Some of the most out of this world birds with mating dances that look like modern dance.

    My cat jumps off any furniture to puke on the clear floor, like a real gent. He even walks away while I'm cleaning the mess 😍

    Yellow lab: Or it could be that time I threw up in front of everyone at Thanksgiving, and you came along an ate it. Blonde lab: No because then they would be thinking about both of us, and I might not be gone yet. Yellow lab: Oh yeah...well it's the tennis ball then; definitely the tennis ball. Blonde lab: Yeah...good times lol.

    Sniffing, walking and for my male dog peeing every few steps. Walking a male dog seems to take a lot longer to do the same route... it annoys my female dog when she is in a hurry to get to the next sniff!
