Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for July 25, 2016

Awesome!! Absolutely amazing wrap up by the mice, the July bug and finally Wicket caught in the net by the lady that works in the cat shelter. Wicket has come full circle as far as finally getting help from the cat shelter people, from hurting his wing 30 years ago to being choked by the Golden Mouse ashes. As she points out in the second to last panel, a 30 year old owl is a little old man and he is grateful for a drink of water. The jubilant mice in the last panel is priceless!

the Junebug !?!?!?

Yay!

July Bug shows up, as foreshadowed by Pucky’s calendar!

OMC!! so much to see and take in, love, love, love it Georgia! Alice having to be dragged by Natasha, the June/July bug I love how we heard him before we saw him, Beatrix, the boys’ horror, Wicket’s rescue by Tommy & Sophie’s woman and him playing the injured party again (as in here we go again) and the jubilant Natasha in the last panel! An amazing, almost conclusion!!

I love Elvis’s OMCOMCOMC moment! So funny and cute! I also love the “have some water” moment.

Wonderful! Too many details to take in all at once. This will reward many rereads. And the little bonus that there will be one more on Thursday!

Then there are the handlebars and the goggles on the July bug. Georgia – you are a fantastic story teller.

I love Wicket accepting the water with his wing, just like a hand.

What a stirring conclusion!

Oh Georgia……you are so amazing!!

I couldn’t scroll fast enough! ! ! AWESOME!

Woooo!!!! Indy action musicin background… LolToo Good.. Thanks Georgia!

: D

Georgia, I’m whispering this, so lean in a little: You realize of course that with your story-telling and ability to create a reality, and with the right voices, your stories really lend themselves to…ssshhhh…animation.

YAY!!!! No one is hurt, and everyone is safe!

WHY ISN’T THIS A BOOK? I COULD READ IT TO MY GRANDCHILDREN! Georgia? Pleas submit this to a book agent, please.

The big owl that lives out by my apartment approves of this story……

And predictions made by the readers come true! The July Bug makes his heroic appearance! Between ashes, flour, and the brighter light from the porch I think poor Wicket was flying blind…. Great special effects, Georgia!

I am TOTALLY picturing the July Bug as some WWII bomber!

Wonderful, Georgia!! Thank you !!

PS can’t wait for next book!! Got the other one

This is wonderful in so many ways. :)

So many threads woven together! Such drama!

So beautiful, thanks Georgia. ; )

OMC OMC OMC!! LOL! Simply superb!

Wonderful!! love the conclusion and the scene where woman is giving the owl a drink – a compassionate victor (well actually the mice did it all) is always a good ending!!

So why does Beatrix take the top off the lamp? To attract bugs?

And who is guarding the books? Who is greeting customers, and being especially friendly with those who are allergic to cats?

@ Robin Harwood: The top off the lamp is to attract one particular bug—the July Bug! I think Trevor is guarding the books while Beatrix performs as Adventure Kitten.

If Tommy’s Woman is involved, will Tommy show up tomorrow? Stay tuned.

Thank you, Sunflower Girl and Denny Wheeler. I’m trying to remember who Trevor is.

I cannot join in with the general rejoicing. I know that Wicket was a cad, trifling with a lady’s affections. (But then, quite a few of us have, in our salad days, been somewhat cavalier with the tender feelings of the fair sex. And it has to be admitted that young ladies are sometimes less considerate of the hearts of their gentlemen admirers than they should be.)

But I have to say that I find it outrageous that an elderly gentleman should be so cruelly and humiliatingly treated, and especially at the paws of those larcenous and disrespectful mice who should, by rights, have been his dinner.

No, this was simply wrong.

@Robin Harwood – Trevor is the dog we met a few months back – he’s often around Quinn Farms with Burt and Baba.@Georgia Dunn – I’m amazed you manage to do what you do when you do it anyway – BCN is always a treat whenever it arrives!

Okay! see you then. More painting is always better than sick kid, or earthquake.

The Julybug has returned!

Is it just me or does this strip remind anyone of home alone?
