Sara does this by ramming her head into my hand. I find nuzzling her head quite relaxing. Gracie’s thing is to roll over, grab my hand and pull it in for belly rubs. It’s also quite soothing, until she starts biting.
Is that Tabitha with the chart? At first I thought it was Goldie, but no ear notch. Looks a bit too mature to be Beatrix, and no sign of extra toes. Then I saw the pearls.

great way to introduce her writing into the comic. well done, Georgia! yes, you do have a children’s book in you, and we read it (and loved it) last year.
Yes, Woman – I KNOW you have at least one children’s book in you (and hopefully, more than one). As with many other goals in life, the trick is to find the time to make it happen.
Altruism Alert! Please feel free to steal these ideas! *BCN Babies could be a great idea for a children’s book. Paired with a pure white Squishmallow version of Lupin, An interactive story about his ability to disappear, could have young readers trying to hide their own stuffed Lupin around the house and take pictures of the funny results! What great fun!, what free advertising! I’m sure our esteemed comments section colleagues have great ideas as well, since we all love your strip so much!
Hmmm…How to interpret this? Since Georgia’s already a published author, with several BCN books for children of all ages, it would only make sense to have The Woman in the parallel-to-ours BCN world also be an author, working from her desk in their expanded area in The Big Pink House. But this could also presage Georgia’s publishing a differently-themed children’s’ book. (Since her son is showing talent in that direction, might he co-author it by writing, illustrating, or suggesting ideas?) I’d love to see more Swan Eaters, but that’s probably not a kids’ book — though kids do love “Grim Fairy Tales.”
Well of course you do woman, it like I told you just the other day, you are spending to much time on the couch with the cats and not enough time in the studio. So it’s time to get up and get going.
Based on Tommy’s description on the original website he would definitely be a good therapy cat, not only because of his personality but also because he’s a really fluffy fellow
Queen Bee Titania: Welcome, Your Majesty Queen Ant Anante, and workers. Have you come for honey?
Queen Anante: Yes, Your Majesty. We are pleased to help out at Honey Harvest Time.
Queen Titania: And we are pleased to be able to supply honey far and wide. As members of the Ancient and Accepted Procurers’ Guild, I know you will do your part. And not take more than you can lift.
Queen Anante: That is so, Your Majesty. But my workers can lift a phenomenal amount.
Worker Ant Amenope: Where should we take the honey to first?
Queen Titania: Thomios would like some for his Just Because Dessert Buffet.
Worker Bee Thalia: And Floofnet the Joyous is teaching a class on cooking with honey.
Worker Bee Kira: Sounds like a song! Ready, everyone?
Stress reducing belly rubs are the best possible support. Haha, Elvis discomfort is strangely relatable. And Tabitha clearly doesn’t have time for this. Wonderful strip <3 And if Georgia is planning on writing a children’s book I’m 100% here for it and I believe in her!
Mister (Junior’s mom) is expecting! Read it in the TinyKitten HQ comments last night. Well, that will be her last litter! Those kittens will be adopted so fast, mom too, faster than Junior was. I had intended to drop viewing TK cold turkey, but, with this news I can’t.
Thanks, for the advice, Tabitha. But I already do too much of 1 & 2. I’m good with 3, but I don’t do enough of 4 & 6. And which thing of many should I stop doing ?
I’ve really let myself stop doing the things I should – and shouldn’t – over the past 5 years. Too many life changes too fast. < sigh >

They’re the ones that can make your worries all flee
They ain’t in no hurry and help you let things be
Now we know that a prince and lovebug bring glee
We know how great a prince and love bug can be
Said, if you want to call Tom baby
Just go ahead, now
And if you’d like to boop him maybe
Just go ahead, now
And if you wanna feel Puck’s powers
Just go ahead, now
And if you’d like to talk for hours
Just go ahead, now
Catch those healing vibes to the nth degree
Give ‘em a try and you’ll soon see ❤️
