Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for December 01, 2024

Reminds me of the home for puppies that have lost their parents. It’s the Arfanage…

OH….MY…CAT! A Purrfect Christmas gift to the Orb! I’m with Pucky, and Burt, and, and Beatrix, and Sophie and Gutter, and So on, and So on, and So on….

Who knew Gutter, Chitter and Chatter were fans of Our IX Lives ? I didn’t know you could grow artificial trees.

Consider this one liked, pinned and tattooed on my back!

Does Gutter see Sophie under the table with Li’l Star? Maybe we’ll see some BCN romance.

Starfish Squeaker!

Sunday Funday

what is That Guy Brad holding? a bag of kibble with a long string? and why is there a question mark after the word kibble? love seeing Sophie with Starfish Squeaker, who still looks a little pink and purple to me.

I’ll be practicing my “boos” and “hisses.”

That last panel is an instant classic! Is this still a rerun?

Also, I love the tinfoil wrapped around the antenna. Brings back memories. :-)

I love Angora’s fashions! I want the outfit she’s wearing, especially her pink hat. Does she have her own fashion boutique, I wonder, or does she have an online CATalogue?

I love the little details—wad of tin foil on the rabbit ears of the TV, Beatrix in front of the TV like a little kid, Starfish Squeaker still showing evidence of all she had been through in the Tidy people’s house, Snowball’s almost hat of adventure (or in his case, hat of avarice) and Kit’s festive scarf!

I’m fascinated by the artificial Christmas tree farm…..

Artificial Christmas tree farm. LOL “How will I afford all these bulldozers?” even more LOL.

Our IX Lives ? I’m doomed!

And bulldozers cost a lot of money.

Hmm, I don’t think we’ve opened the Grumbling Room just yet. (NOT because we’re looking at the first Our IX Lives in FOREVER . . . we just haven’t quite gotten around to it.)

It’s probably time, though. I suppose I should start taking the dust covers off of the furniture. We’ll need to have it open in time for the sleigh ride, we wouldn’t want to miss, er, accidentally see that.

Hopefully, no one will sabotage the sleigh and strand them in the wilderness. Of course, we don’t know anyone who would do that! I wonder if Bandit and his (or whomever the father is) psychic kittens will be in this? They would be able to rescue them, perhaps.

We will, of course, actively avoid watching or even hearing about anything to do with this ridiculous soap opera. We have better things to do than to watch silly soap operas. I hope . . . er, suppose . . . that no one’s fixed the door to the Grumbling Room so that it will close and block out the television noise from the other room. That television is always turned up so loud that we almost can’t help hearing it. (The volume knob? I don’t know where it is! Someone probably pulled it off and lost it. It’s definitely not hidden in one of the drawers in the Grumbling Room!)

Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!!! “In select newspapers and on GoComics all December.” This is going to be a good, no, a great month!

Kit toebeans, panel 4! I may faint! {Fans self vigorously}

Yes, It’s time for the holiday episodes of the stories.

Hooray! This is going to be fun!

Awwww I sure love seeing Sophie and Lil’ Starfish Squeaker all cozy watching the show underneath the ironing board. ❤️❤️❤️

And, “when Trouble comes to town”?? He’s going to demand all your mackerel fish treats and tuna, as well as head boops and nose sniffs aplenty! :D

Where’s Elvis hiding? See you in January, Robin! (I’m sure…)

I can’t wait!

Oooo, a Hallmark Christmas special! Can’t wait to read this!

Two of them look like they could be immediate family members of Lupin.

These funny looking characters should be Christmas gifts as toys hahahahahhaha made in the USA by cat ladies factory workers.

LOL! Pawmark! Thank you Georgia! Pretty much nailed every single plot, of a holiday Hallmark movie! Ha Ha Ha! The, Artificial Christmas tree farm, was a hilarious touch!

I can’t wait either! And I love the tinfoil on the TV antenna.

My mom watches a lot of those Hallmark Christmas movies. This is hilarious. :D

Beatrix rear toe beans!

Egads. Steenky soapy opera is unbearable.

Oh it’s tea time with the kitties, fun, fun, fun!!! I will be clicking see if I can find that Pawmark channel!!!

I prefer the simple kitty adventures.

What a wonderful Christmas/Holiday present from Georgia! Exactly what we need to lift spirits and hope for the new year, a special presentation that will surely end happily for the good cats and badly for the cheating and grifting cats.

You know how some of you SQUEEE for toe beans? Yep. Our IX Lives is “my” squeee moment!

Who’s under the table with Sophie? Is that Agatha? I’m so looking forward to this and for the first time ever, I realized this is the first comic and saved it! My slow brain isn’t realizing in the middle of a story line that I should have caught the beginning, for a change.

Ha! I knew Ora Zella was wearing a Big-City Kitty dress in last Sunday’s strip.

I would watch it!!!!

I can’t wait Puck!

Oh. Joy…

“What has 15 actors, four settings, two writers, and one plot? Hallmark movies.”

The foil on the TV antenna is a nice touch, Georgia. But you’re not that old.

I bet Georgia got her inspiration for this from the special Christmas “ Beyond Salem” spinoff of Days of Our Lives?

You could, you know, just not USE the bulldozers at all by dropping the project entirely.

I know, that’s a really complex idea for a mind of your wealth to handle, but that’s why you have us to point it out. :P

I can’t wait! I was really getting sick of watching “Paw and Order” reruns! Also, shouldn’t it be called the Clawmark Channel?

Ah, the classic “bump into hello” trope. The mainstay of cutesy romance movies!

This is going to be fun! My favorite detail is Dr. Mittens and That Guy Brad running off with “Kibble?”

I’m really looking forward to this story arc. I’m signing off on Go Comics and skipping the rest of my reads for today. I found my mother’s doughnut recipe, and it’s time to make the doughnuts!

I’ve got my kibble (popcorn) and I’m ready to hunker down & watch A Purrfect Christmas. Squeeee

Time to flip your BCN calendars!

.

♪Kick the balls with Ora Zella

Falalalala-lalalala♫

Look at everyone! Sophie and Li’l Starfish Squeaker under the ironing board with Natasha and snacks. Beatrix on the ironing board. Pucky and Burt. Gutter and Chitter & Chatter in the window! It’s a party!

Are we being set up for another story arc? No more plain cartoons anymore?

Oh this will be fun! (Does anyone have a chart or guide to the OIXL characters? I’ve completely forgotten.)

This is going to be purrfect!

I missed “All My Nine Lives.”

OT

Love the artificial Christmas tree farm.

My favorite soap opera. My second choice is “All my Circuits”. :)

This is exactly what I needed this season! Georgia always seems to create exactly the laughs and warm fuzzies we need. :)

A special holiday episode of Our IX Lives all month?! HALLELUJAH!

Thank you, Georgia!

Georgia, I’m hoping you include an update on Paisley and the clairvoyant kittens at some point in the next month!

Better than any soap on TV

Oh how fun! As soon as I read the first paper, I was prepped for a Hallmark Channel parody! Go Georgia, you absolute BEAST!

Hallmark Xmas movies. The perfect emetic

We have foil on the antenna, now all we need is to foil Snowball Taggart and That Guy Brad.

Calendars! 2025 BCN calendars are happening! More details to come (I don’t know what I’m cleared to say here, but I know people here were wondering).

I needed this.

OT:Curtain liners have arrived. But I need a few extra curtain rods. They just won’t hang on the rod with the curtains as described. No biggie. I’ll be out Tuesday morning. Until then I have taken down the curtains and hung the liners in their place, for now. My windows are going to be very crowded. I have the curtains on one rod, will have the liners on another in between that space and a third rod above them for the valance that goes with the curtains. But they look so nice it’ll be worth the effort. I’m worn out. I did something to my elbow last week,still pretty swollen. I’m going to call the Dr tomorrow morning. The swelling should have gone done by now, even with me messing with curtains today.

OMC – I just noticed that the dress mannequins have cat ears.

When you say “all December” do you mean, like, ALL December? Like day 1 through day 32?

Dr. Mittens’ forehead patch matches the mark on Frank Herbert’s Suk Doctors, one of whom was a betrayer.

OT KittyKatz’ secret mission in Iceland

Wow! This is better than My Nine Lives!!!!!

i’m hoping we see Father O’Kittery and that Sister Snowbelle is reunited with her girls.

O.M.G. BCN has taken over the Wife Time, er I mean the Life Time channel.

Talk of the big city kitty reminds me of a Facebook friend of mine, who named one of his cats “Ibiki” (short for “itty-bitty kitty”).

And, hey—toss in a “city”, and you could have “Ibiciki” for “itty-bitty city kitty”!

I see many enjoy this. To me its more like a spin off comic. I will patiently await the return of the original. Happy Holidays!!!
