Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for April 01, 2022

And the smell, Goldie. Don’t forget the smell.

OT: Missing Orbster

Or leftovers that can be tossed next week.

Discarded food diving is more fun than neatly served from the

The toe beans are causing mischief, I see!

Oh!

I hope Elvis doesn’t bite the foil! It hurts my teeth thinking about it!

Elvis! What happened to your dignity?

Elvis hardly looks dignified here.

And that’s why I ball up the foil, drop it on the floor, and stand on it. Then fold it and foot-flatten again. Tiny, compact wad which is now of little or no interest to my feline trash inspectors.

Silly humans. First, you put the fish debris and the tin foil in the trash, then you tie it up and put it immediately in the outside garbage tote or metal trash can. It stops the cats from going crazy and gets that fish stench out of the house.

Meanwhile, Back on the Nile

Thomios: Thanks for helping clean up, Elvis.

Elvis-Anum: It’s the least I can do after that sumptuous meal.

Thomios: To show my appreciation, I’ve had Sue Chef make up a packet of leftovers for you.

Elvis: Oh, you didn’t have to do that.

Sometime Later

Sue Chef: That’s a clever idea, offering leftovers in exchange for helping to clean up.

Thomios: Works every time. We need a packet for Puckmosis, and Bea, and Burt-Ra and Wally and…

It’s April – time to flip those BCN calendars! Look, it’s lovely Sophie hard at work on her art. ♥

This would be why I have a Simple Human can with a lid that has the step on rise up feature. Not so much for Loaner Cat, she can’t jump on anything more than about 18 inches off the ground but she’s a mountain lion when it comes to scaling things. It’s our Blue Boy, Murphy the Doberman. If it’s in the trash, it’s fair game. With the step on can though, he just can’t figure out how to step on the pedal and then get his face in the trash because the minute the lid goes up, he’s so excited that it’s going up and starts dancing, he takes his foot off the pedal and down goes the lid! This is why we don’t have the motion activated one either, we’d be in trouble then. But if he and Loaner Cat learned to work together…

who are you trying to kid Elvis? ~~~~~Leftovers hahaha ♥

Tonight, the last of the corned Beef will become Hash. With a nice over-easy egg on top. Hamilton will supervise, of course.

That appears to be a garbage can with a lid, which is usually enough to keep out dogs (unless they knock it over). Truly great are the lengths cats would go to for fish, especially of the cat is a determined Siamese. As a side note, I feel about leftover fish the way most (based on two weeks ago) feel about leftover corned beef.

I LOVE FISH!!!!

Always out to the trash, sometimes with kitties follwing to the door

Other option is simply put the foil on the floor and let them have at it until clean. Highly effective

Rumor has it Lupin will appear as a ghost reporter a la Ben Kenobi’s spirit in Star Wars Episode 5 and 6 in upcoming Breaking Cat News installments…APRIL FOOLS!!!

Every cat should learn the art of dumpster diving. You never know when it might become necessary.

A tight lid or removing the trash to outside is a good idea. Years ago, a friend’s dog fished an avocado pit out of her kitchen trash. I wouldn’t think that would have any appeal (slimy, flavorless) but when told to drop it, she defiantly swallowed it. The vet told them this required surgery or it could kill her. So at a time when money was tight, they had to spend hundreds of dollars but all went well and the dog lived many more years.

I honestly do not like fish that much… I would gladly give mine to Lupin! or maybe Puck? whatta bout Elvis??

uh oh…

giving the fish to the cats is the only proper place for it.

Exactly! This is how the kittens should act!

Fish does not keep as long as other foods, so boneless leftover fish makes good cat snacks.

Where is Gollum when you need him?

The People should know better than to dump fish out.

Leftovers? Fish is one of the very few items that there’s rarely leftovers here. Usually because I’ll eat any remaining fish after everyone else is done.

We love fish and have it almost every other day. But we only cook enough for one dinner. All other is either frozen or being defrosted. (Unless we are lucky enough to be offered fresh by neighbors who caught more than they needed.) However, the dog and cats do each get a bite unless the fish was prepared in a sauce or with a spicy coating. Mostly it is baked or broiled plain or sautéed in just butter.

Looks like April 5 Is the date!

Elvis the bad boy >:D

This is why we have step-on cans. Cats can perch on top of them but can’t operate them.

So happy neither of my babies get in the trash can.

Last night I asked for help from the Orb . on FOX news last night on The Five, Dana Perino used a word incorrectly. She said it more than once in her comment and no one corrected her. What was it??

Fish isn’t special. What Goldie says can be applied to any meat

“This food is wrapped in too many layers of tinfoil; I can’t get at it!”

“Curses! Foiled again!”

Elvis POV: Trash, Teabags, Tin foil and Other Trashy things

Cats probably think humans are fools for not eating from the garbage can.

I love Goldie’s cheerful reporting style. And to think at first she was not too keen on taking a reporter job.

OT: short update

Today, April 1st was Sophie’s 16th birthday!! Happy birthday sweet, beautiful, Sophie!

My cats get tuna water when Dad makes tuna casserole. They love it.
