Transcript:
(And now for today's episode of Our IX Lives) Snowball Taggert: Angora- Snowball Taggert: I don't want you seeing that Kit Chase scoundrel. Snowball Taggert: It's bad enough Princess had to run off with that sailor's cat...Only to have him LOST AT SEA- Princess: (SLAM, !) Princess: Captain Nimble and I were in love. You'd understand if you ever took the time to know him! Princess' daughter: Mama- Snowball Taggert: This arguing is bad for my heart. Where are my pills... Angora: Father! Princess: Relax Angora, FATHER HAS NO HEART- Princess: Took you back in, didn't I? Show up on my door step wrapped in a fishing net, with a kitten... Now, please. I need my rest. Angora: Father- Princess' Daughter: Grandpoppy- Princess: UGH Snowball Taggert: Thank goodness for my pills.... (DRAMATIC MUSIC) Snowball Taggert: (WINK) Angora: Oh, this life of lavish refinement and indecision- Kit: Psssst! Angora! Angora: Kit! Kit: Mind if I join you? Angora: You climbed two stories? Kit: I'd climb a whole novel for you, girl. Kit: Come away with me, Angora. You've never lived the stray cat life. We'll sleep in flower boxes and eat garbage. Angora: That's growss. Kit: Hot garbage? Nothing better! Angora: Like tires and stuff....? Kit: Have you talked to your father? Angora: I tried, but-his weak heart. He's so fearful it will be Captain Nimble all over again. Kit: Captain Nimble? That reminds me... Kit: I got this letter... Kit: From THE SEA- (DRAMATIC MUSIC) Puck: GASP! Burt: Captain Nimble was best friends with the Chase brothers! Burt: Could it be? Natasha: GASP! TV: Next week on Our IX LIVES.... Snowball Taggert: What's going on here?-MY HEART! Burt: This new break room for the station was a great idea, Puck. Puck: Thanks! It's usually a laundry room.

I was glad that we’d got the sappy, feline-interest, Christmas stuff over and done with, and could get back to the important business of real, grim, hard news (e.g.the new plant) but now we get kibble-opera!
(Love “climbed two stories” “I’d climb a whole novel”)

My Nine Lives! Everybody’s favorite soap and that Kit Chase is a real heart throb. And there’s Natasha the robber mouse watching with the boys. I hope we get to see Captain Nimble return from the sea.

Breakroom rules: If you pour the last cup of coffee make a new pot and wipe out the microwave if you make a mess.

“Like tires and stuff . . .?” Love that line. I also love seeing the guys watching their soap along with one of the robber mice. And now, of course, I’m already hooked on “Our IX Lives”. I hope you’ll be treating us to more episodes of it. I want to know what’s in the letter.

WHOA! That is one impressive coffee maker in their break room. That’s, like, a commercial grade Bunn pour over. Not bad for a newsie break room!

Princess came back from her “adventure” with a kitten . . . only one kitten . . . that seems too few.
I see plot lines with long-lost children in the future of Our IX Lives!

I have seen this strip before, but just today did I notice the “hidden” cat face drawn in the house in panel 1.
