Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for May 04, 2021

Oh, she has had that ready for months, hasn’t she? Any excuse to prod a Cat…

just look at all those Goldie Toebeans. Ahhh.

If the Man went stomping heavily through the apartment, Lupin might feel the vibrations and either scramble away (making noise) or come investigate (though I doubt that very much).

Ah the “burden of invisibility”—Lupin could have taken the ring all the way to Mordor with no trouble at all because he wouldn’t have had to even wear it. ;)

If Burt was watching him (or reviewing the videos later), maybe he can help pinpoint the exact spot where he first went invisible!

Goldie comes up with a plan and Natasha comes up with a stick….that little scamp does love her pointy needles and sticks!

I raise my hand excitedly. “I want a stick! I want a stick, too!”

Reminds me of my favorite Edward Gorey cartoon – A skeleton wearing dark glasses and with a sign around its neck that says “Blind” is sitting on a cobweb-covered bicycle and has its finger on a call bell in a gate in front of an institutional building labeled “School For The Deaf.”

But did The People give them breakfast? They can’t search on empty stomachs.

I am exhausted and my head hurts, and Natasha just made me laugh so loud I scared the cats. She has made my day.

When in doubt, poke it with a stick.

Stickin’ you

I’ve got this feeling down deep in my soul that it’ll leave no bruise

Guess I’m on my way

Hope it don’t bend

And the way I feel now I guess I’ll love stickin’ you in the end

Guess I’m on my way

Mighty glad you strayed

(Lionel B. Richie Jr. – Stuck on You)

I suggest they check the bathroom. It’s nice and white.

Just look for the snoring patch of the house, not that hard.

ATTENTION EVERYBODY ! There is a spammer around (originated on the Big Nate page I think) and appeared yesterday on Crabgrass). If they turn up here, please, please completely ignore them and simply flag one of their comments (blue flag, top right of the comment) and hopefully they’ll then disappear quickly. If you engage with them you’ll be giving them exactly what they want. Presumably they’ve now been removed anyway but just for future reference. OK, now to continue with the search (top of the fridge, I reckon).

Normally his eyes are visible but if he is asleep, his eyes are closed.

May the Fourth be with you all!

You can’t miss lupins big smile even when he’s invisible..

“I’m gonna use a stick!” Spewed coffee…

See, what you want to do is spray paint everywhere, and wait for him to move – the clean spot will show him up fine.

Has either the Woman or Man done any white laundry lately?

So who eventually finds Lupin? Is it Goldie, Puck, the Robber Mice who talk softly and carry a big stick? Could it be Elvis or perhaps The Boy or The Girl? Perhaps the Woman rolls out that dreaded vacuum cleaner and Lupin reveals himself in a blaze of flying white? I think there are no favorites in this contest, the field is wide open!

Was that overturned laundry basket full of white towels?

May The Fourth Be With You.

Or, just wait for him to wake up.

Little Miss Adventure occasionally goes missing in the night, causing us to search the house. Did she get outside without us noticing? Panic! She’ll come up behind us while we’re searching and give us a quizzical look, as if to say “What are you searching for? Can I help look?”

One day we’ll figure out where the heck she gets to in the house.

We have the exact opposite dilemma in our house. When our black panther, Belle, is silent and motionless in a dark room, she disappears. If she looks at you, then you see two yellow eyes and perhaps the tips of her white fangs in the dark. Really unnerving. It is also a skill she uses as a Protector to intimidate her quarry.

This cant end well

OT: There’s a little black spot on the sun today…

May the Fourth be with us all.

Now.Will.Somebody.Please.Go.Check.The.Bathroom.Sink?

And, when you find him, poke him again!

You guys go on ahead. I’ll be curled up under The People’s bed.

I haven’t checked that closely yet, but maybe LUPIN is hiding in the Cat’s Cafe Word Search.

Careful Natasha – don’t poke Alice by mistake.

obvioulsy the stick has magical properteis that uninvisibles things

Oh, the unbridled glee of all three girls at the prospect of poking and prodding around to find Lupin!

Lupin reminds me a little of my first college dorm roommate. That guy did a back flip off a second floor balcony onto a glass coffee table. He flopped badly, broke the table, bleeding profusely from scalp wounds, and laughing. He was so drunk he didn’t feel a thing. He was crazy, and often naked, but never invisible.

Mind you, I was 13 years old my first year of college, so this guy should not have been my roommate, but there it is. He did make me a lifelong teetotaler (Some people think it is tea totaler https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/teetotaler).

The smell of beer actually still makes me nauseous.

So…basically what I myself had suggested way back at the start of this whole storyarc.

Not to act smug or anything…but I probably could’ve saved y’all some time if you had just listened to me back then. :P

Never tell me the odds!

Natasha is my Spirit Animal. I haven’t laughed that hard in ages.

May the 4th be with you!

Lionel Richie: Dancing on the Ceiling

What is happening here

Something’s going on that’s not quite clear

We have a missing cat, but that’s alright

He’s recovering from the Zoomies

And he stays out of sight!

…….

Oh, what a feeling

Lupin’s dancing on the ceiling

Oh, what a feeling

Lupin’s dancing on the ceiling

…….

Everybody start to lose control

When the koffee is alright

If you see Lupin hangin’ around

He is outta sight!

The only thing we want to do tonight

Is run ’round and ’round

And hang upside down

No one wears a frown!

…….

Oh, what a feeling

Lupin’s dancing on the ceiling

Oh, what a feeling

Lupin’s dancing on the ceiling

OT: Vaccine

Better than a sewing needle.

Dang, I was wrong. Still no Lupin sitings!

I just realized -

Maybe Lupin developed a Cloaking Device.

He’s probably asleep on the white bathmat.

WAIT A MINUTE!!!!! Someone speak to Burt. He clearly watched Lupin through his zoomies and I expect he knows where he crashed.

Many paws make light work!!!

Good news on the BCN game: it’s restarting developent! (I really just like making games.) Any suggestions you may have, tell me! Also, if you have any art, please tell me here as well.

Just in case you haven’t seen these from Georgia today:

Is Natasha going to stick it to Lupin?

Good thinking, Natasha.

Happy Star Wars Day!! May the Fourth be with you!

O.T. Gym Etiquette

I dunno about cats, but poking a sleeping bear with a stick is a very bad idea.

…or a needle.

I have to say to myself, “Self, would you really want to unexpectedly wake up a tired, invisible cat – with a stick?”

I nearly had my nose broken by waking up a completely visible tabby cat by bending over him while he was sleeping on the couch. When my shadow fell on his eyes he went straight up like a rocket.

Natasha is going to use the Forc to find Lupin …

I think she’s on to something.
