Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for March 08, 2017
Transcript:
Lupin: Peep toads are out! Elvis: We go now live to Tommy! Tommy: Elvis, peep toads are nature's car alarm! They set each other off for hours and their beauty is deafening. Puck: On warm nights when the peep toads are out, I like to press my nose to the screen and contemplate the majesty of nature. Sigh. Beatrix: Cocoa run! Elvis: How do you keep getting outside?! Beatrix: A lady never tells! Cocoa? Dog: Oh, ah-no. Dogs can't eat chocolate. Beatrix: Is that like a dog-religion thing? Oh. My. Cat. Do not answer that! You do not owe me an explanation! Tea? Dog: I'd like that, thank you. Lupin: I guess peep toads are all right, but I prefer these Christmas light bugs. Makes you wonder where they're going. Puck: Yeah.

Sophie’s the only named character not in this strip. She’s no doubt at home, curled up with a good book.

You know, chocolate is lethal to both cats and dogs…the theobromine alkali that gives chocolate its bitter taste acts in a manner identical to henbane when introduced to the systems of cats and dogs – but a marginal amount like the amount in Starbuck-style cocoa could be processed easily by both…

Peep toad hoe down ! Dancing robber mice ! Bea in her little spotted pjs ! Polite little Beatrix, embarrassed that she asked an intrusive question. The joy keeps coming and coming.

Ps: Of COURSE Tommy wears onesie, footed pajamas with pizza slices on them, and Trevor wears a sensible, bone-patterned sweater and slippers ! Could there be any doubt ?

My favorite is Puck, on ‘his’ cat perch, nose pressed to the screen, contemplating nature. [sigh] That’s just perfect (I do that, too, Puckie.)

The only Peep-amphibian I know is the Spring Peeper which is a frog. I googled Peep Toad and got a link to this comic and some random stuff.

We like the peeps, whether they are frogs or toads. There are thousands of them at the cabin and they peep constantly. Lovely!

Spring in Oregon is different.
We just were fewer layers under our raincoats.

Are Tommy’s pizza slices in sunglasses pjs related to the anthropomorphized food set The Intruder brought for the kids a while back?
deadheadzan over 7 years ago
What a perfect strip today! There is something for everyone. Bea is getting close to Trevor and that could be a perfect pairing. The peepers around here are definitely frogs.

The leftmost chorus frog seems to shop at the same boutique as Sophie!

Lupin likes the light bugs because he is deaf and can’t hear the peepers.

My favourite sound in the world: Spring Peepers. I love the sound so much I open the windows just to hear them, even though they usually come out at a time that’s much too cold to open the windows…

I really may need to finally create an illustration of this last panel! Thank you everyone for your kind words today!!
Banjo Gordy Premium Member over 7 years ago
One of your best Georgia. Reminds me of my children’s books from the 30s & 40s. “Wind in The Willows” & illustrations of the “Peter Rabbit Stories”

The mouse girls Need some Mouse Boys to dance with! Froggy-toads are OK to go to aa dance with, bit the ladies need some mouse-men to cut the rug with. Or else there will be no mouselings. or micelets. Rat boys are very study and drive all the rattie-girls mad. Then they end up with ratlets, or rittens; in the Netherlands.
pam Miner over 7 years ago
Yes, nice mice girls have to have mouse-males with mice tails under their nice dancing mice clothes.

Both cats and dogs can eat very little chocolate, it really is a small amount though.
