Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for March 19, 2018

Here comes trouble!

Cue the poof fest!

Lupin’s palm plant in panel 3 – they know Elvis oh so well :)He’s misreading the situation but at least Elvis is just being protective but cue the dramatic music …

When my two fight with each other it’s actually quite amusing as there is no sound apart from occasional slaps and thuds from physical contact. No growling, no hissing or spitting, no yowling – just posturing and wrestling with the odd punch thrown. However 30 lbs of cat rumbling across the floor does have a deleterious effect on whatever’s in the way – all breakables are safely stashed away :)

I love how Puck is climbing onto the laundry chute door to get the scoop.

so ends the assurance that the floor cat(s) are friendly!

Paws raised threateningly, but no actual contact.

And today we get little orange Puckie toe beans. My Jasper’s toe beans were orange, too!

Elvis is doing the feline version of “Hi, we’re from the government and we’re here to help you.”

Couldn’t sleep, so I sacked on sofa so’s not to bug Hubby. Was beginning to nod off when a big, blue kitty tush plopped on my head, with a looooong tail windshield-wiping over my face. That’s why I’m up early! ‘Morning, beloved Mega Orb! Praying blessings to each person’s orb, especially the orbabies!

Love to all! Dusty & I are heading to bed! >^.,.^<

Good morning and happy Monday, orbsters and orbabies. It’s going to be a clear, sunny day here in Barrie. Shaunmunn, did you friend ever hear back about that job?

were it not for the subtitles, I would think “Basta!” meant something else entirely!

I do believe Mister Elvis is about to get put in his place.

21 hours ago, Mudd said,

Thanks,Georgia. A fine and fun strip.

Good morning Mudd and Gweedo.

At this point I’m just waiting for the other paw to drop.

Not apropos to the comic at all, but of interest to cat and animal lovers.

Some of you probably already know this.

Please don’t flush your cat poop.

People that don’t live on the coast are generally unaware of the fact that many cats have a (mostly) benign parasitic worm called Toxoplasma gondii.

The problem is that the worms eggs can survive being processed in a sewage treatment plant. When the cleaned processed water is then released into a waterway, and the eegs get into the ocean, they will infect Pinnipeds and Sea Otters and kill them. It has also been found in Whales.

People are asked to please (double) bag your cat poop and litter and make sure that it ends up in the garbage. It’s safest for seals and sea lions if it ends up in a landfill.

Here is a little bit by NOAA on it.

Just love Lupin’s exasperated paw to the face in panel 3. Perfect.

Oh, Elvis, you are in for a surprise!

Poor Fig! His tail is poofy is panel 4. Elvis is saving Lupin… from what, making friends other than him – I imagine. So all cats need to take a breath. And they will… and then Puck will land on them, I am sure.

Whappy paws.

I remember a Muppet Show where they did the martial art known as “wyiotta,” where they would circle each other saying, “Why, I oughtta,”

Hooray! I was thrilled to see BCN in the Seattle Times this morning. Congratulations Georgia!

Figaro has about had enough of the strange cats, I guess…

Two’s company. Three’s a crowd!

Algunos de los gatos de piso son amables.

Elvis is just like some people I know. He is not happy unless he is unhappy.

I love Lupin’s expression in panel 3. He knew it was coming, but hoping maybe this time . . .

glad to see the other cats coming back!

Well folks, thanks to my little orbaby face-wiper, I did NOT get a restful snooze!

I hadn’t been in bed an hour when I heard all kinds of blue language from Hubby! He was just sitting down to eat his breakfast & watch the news when our Dusty decided the time was ripe for a little lovin’! In the process, he managed to spill an entire 12-oz cup of ice water all over his Daddy!

I groggily got out of bed & just made the hallway when Dusty zipped by me & shot under the bed! I could hear Hubby ranting about the water, but just turned around, shut the bedroom door, & promptly went back to sleep. I heard him ranting about something else, but since it didn’t involve Dusty or me, I zoned it out!

All is well! Daddy & Dusty reconciled; Dusty a lot more respective of Daddy’s space!Now they’re playing! Told Hubby to close the little stinker in bedroom with me from now on. Ah! Peace in the family! Blessings, dear orbsters! >^.,.^<

I still say Elvis reminds me of Bob Beckel.

New Simon’s Cat!

The one who caught the red dot is about to make an appearance.

Woaah!! Thanks to the subtitles in the last frame!! I thought Sir Figaro Newton had said something else!

Great job on being friendly Elvis
