Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for September 16, 2024

every seasonal decoration is a cat toy…actually everything is a cat toy…

Finally! I read this earlier on ArcaMax and have been waiting to thank Georgia for bringing us a report from Tabitha and Sir Figaro Newton! It’s so good to see them again.

I love Sir Fig, so glad to see him batting happily.

Half the comics I read on gocomics are blank and just say “Coming soon” on the last strip. Can someone help me?

I think pequeñas is in the wrong place, but my Spanish is pretty rusty.

what is compro doing between the pequenas and the calabasas ?

Tabitha toe beans!

Woo Hoo! Go Comics is back up!

Speaking of the little pumpkins, the crystal bowl we used to display decorative Fall gourds and little pumpkins for our table top, was destroyed by a certain orange cat, an unrepentant creature of chaos.

I agree with Sir Fig’s actions. What else are tiny decorative pumpkins for?

It’s so good to see Tabitha and Sir Figaro Newton again!

This is funny, because my sister just bought some small, solar lit pumpkins! My mom’s cat, Babyface, is walking around them, probably wondering how she should handle them! P.S. She looks just like, Sir Fig!

Woohoo! GoComics is back! Back with a Gatos de Noticas special report! This is a good day after all!

And yeah, what is a decorative pumpkin but a cat toy? Obviously!

¡Ay catamba! Me is not knowing or understandeeng Spaneesh.

And sometheeng goofy going on in this site these days. Comics not appear on time.

Después de todo, éramos sólo un grupo de gatos sin nada más que hacer.

They are having a veritable Pumpkin Patch Punch-A-Thon!

El Cato Pato…

I was once told, by a teacher who spoke both fluently, that knowing Latin made Spanish easy to learn, and that Spanish was the closest modern language to Latin, since Spanish evolved from Latin. While Latin makes it a little easier to puzzle out the meaning of a Spanish sentence, I found my Latin grammar, pronunciation, and syntax got in the way. My brain kept trying to say, “Non est, sit ________.” (No, it should be _____.)

What would have been cool is that Tabitha’s microphone had the GN logo. “Gatos de Noticias”

It is soon time for Puck season.

381 comments here yesterday!! I am reading these before it gets overwhelming!

Meanwhile, Back on the Nile

Puckmosis: Ladies! It’s good to see you again! How was your trip to Brittania?

Agnes-Ata: It was loverly! We visited our friends, had lots of cheese, and learned a lot of the history.

Ta-Natash: It turns out that King Arturos fought a war against his would-be usurper, his nephew Meowdred. But with the help of Murlin, the wizard, he won the day.

Lupinium: Which day did he win?

Violet-Ifa: It was a Monday. And if you can conquer a Monday, you have the week!

Alice-Ata: There are rumours that certain items were supplied by sources no one knows.

Elvis-Amun: Something terrible has happened! The scrolls I was transcribing have all reverted to yesterday!

Beatrixia: Not to worry. The apprentices were making copies with the movable press.

Elvis: Where did they move it to?

Qué divertido

“pequenas calabazas” and “las estamos”

OT: TK’s “Mister Mom”?

I love Tabitha and Figaro. They help me with my Spanish.

OT from yesterday’s post.

Ah, the Autumnal Fun is beginning!

Decorative pumpkins make really gourd cat toys.

For those among you who may have trouble reading the subtitles:

In panel two, Tabitha says “Thanks, Lupin!”

in panel three, she continues: “Our woman bought tiny decorative pumpkins!”

And finally, in panel four, she concludes: “And we are batting them all over the house!”

Good stuff! Tab and Fig are back and Gerogia actually explained why the two are so scarce: it’s hard on panel space to use them for reports due to the translation. It’s something I wondered about reading the strip twice. I assumed she simply didn’t have ideas for them anymore as tends to be common for comic strips. I underestimated her.

Tomorrow is Good as Goldie’s official release date, mine is scheduled to arrive tomorrow by 10 PM. Amazon usually seems to show up in the afternoon sometime around here. I just realized the other day I hadn’t finished Everything’s Coming Up Beatrix! I started to read it again. It did answer a question I had, at least I think it did. I think the book is focusing mostly on Goldie’s story looking for her missing people and the early glimpses Lupin and we got of her. I had wondered if the strip showing the moving van would also be included, but I see that was in Beatrix’s book, though I guess that doesn’t mean it couldn’t be in Goldie’s book too.

Also I realized that 2019’s Heck on the Deck storyline might have had a hint at what was going to happen at the next year’s Tesslemania, see April 9, 2019. I mean this is Georgia we are talking about she probably already had Sophie’s storyline in 2020 in her mind a year earlier.

Going batty for pumpkins!!

I love it when Tabitha and Sir Fig give reports. ❤️ Tabitha has such style with her turquoise blazer and her string of pearls.

Nice to see the ceiling cats, especially Sir Fig having so much fun with the pumpkins. Bat those calabazas, senor!

OT: Decorating. I’m thinking of having the picture of Sara that is my current Avatar made into a piece of wall art. Not sure if I want a canvas or other. Currently my walls are a bit bare. I’m in the process of cleaning them up, and it’s going quite well. So much so that I bought a tool to help me reach the higher bits without overextending or climbing a ladder. Gracie does not sit well for photos, so it’s not likely I can find a pic of her to do the same with.

If they rollz, I swatz!

Missed them both. Sir Figaro appears too infrequently. More tuxedo representation. Tabitha is the soul of elegance.

I’m sure they’ll all find warm, comfortable homes under the fridge, oven or couch.

I remember how well Sir Fig and Lupin used to get along – the first to make friends in the beginning. Would love to see them together again.

Not just decorative, then, but fully interactive!♥

Too early for pumpkins. Need to wait until October to make sure they last through Halloween and into November.

Been awhile since Gatos de Noticias have made an appearance

afortunado de tenerlos

GOOOOOAAAALLLL!

Soft purrrs and head boops all around. AND SQUEEEEEE Tabby toebeans!

Bit early for pumpkins eh?
