Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for May 08, 2018

Lupin – still in his tighty-whities. And pink toe beans!

Puck finds a way to get Lupin’s attention! Grab him by his puffy white cheeks then sign the important info. Go Puckie!

I love Lupin’s abrupt switch from biting and rabbit kicking to being all polite and apologetic.

I love how the annoyed vacuum mom looks as if she’s got her hose on her “hip.” Uh-oh, she’s still got that frowny face too. But maybe with Lupin’s contrite apology she’ll eventually forgive his rabbit kicks.

Oh dear, someone better go grab Elvis before he finds the correct cord to bite. Or I guess we should say the “incorrect cord” now.

how will elvis react?? spoiler alert!

You should try that weird brush thing (with the vacuum running), Lupin — you might actually like it!

Aww the toe beans continue to melt my heart! And I’m just cracking up over the fact that Lupin continues to be stark naked. Ha! And yes, I call that a “weird brush thing” too, Lupin. Lots of giggles over this one this morning, thanks Georgia!

Since Lupin hasn’t shown any need for modesty, I’m guessing the tail wrap in the last panel shows that he is now calm and polite.

This is the second comics because of which I have a desire learn sign language)

I love how Puck shouts at Lupin in the first panel, even though he knows full well that he can’t hear him. Force of habit, I suppose.

Now, about the A/V equipment and their need for power . . ."

OMC, Lupin’s face in panel two is giving me life.

I am wondering how the cats are going to co-exist with a loud vacuum that still kinda freaks them out. Or if they are going to have a peaceful relationship with “her”. So many questions.

She also has a dust buster to feed, Puck. Maybe that is behind her aggressive cleaning of the sofa. Do mother vacuums regurgitate cat fur for their babies or just bring it to them and place it in their mouths? I bet David Attenborough would know.

Wait! Is the dust buster a product of the vacuum mating ritual between the mom and the new vacuum upstairs that the Boys talked about a few months ago? Remember there were some throaty “rrrrrs.” My next question – what is the gestation time of a vacuum cleaner?

So the boys are going to let the vacuum carry on spreading alarm and despondency as before?

OMC, too much adorable again…Lupin so impeccably polite. Now, how will the truce negotiations go? And where is Elvis now? And how soon will the av be fixed…so many questions remain so stay tuned!

This is so timely for Mother’s Day.

The body language of the vacuum has been amazing this arc

BWAHAHAHA! and AWWWWWW…..

Good morning and happy Bluesday, orbsters and orbabies! I love Puck signing frantically in the second and third panels along with Lupin’s change from killing frenzy to courtesy towards the vacuum. And the vacuum’s “aggravated mom” pose in the last panel! Paul has oral surgery today to remove two teeth and some roots in his lower jaw. I predict a very cranky male once the freezing wears off!

I think Lupin would’ve won…for the record ☺

This comic gives me all the feels! Puck grabbing Lupin’s face? I swear my mom did that to me when I was little to get my attention. Plus, I’ve never seen a vacuum with so much sass!

I love how Pucky is smooshing Lupin’s biter shut in panel two!

Also, more adorable kitty sign language! I guess Lupin can’t read whiskers in the heat of battle!

Feed the baby guys!

Update on Nicky – he had his stitches removed and he is healing well. He has been released from the dreaded crate too! Freedom! The pathology reports came back showing mostly normal. He does have an inflammation in the intestines and the liver, but not the stomach. He will get a heavy dose of prednisone for a couple of weeks & then it will be cut back. The vet was very happy with the outcome. The really great news is that tumors, masses and cancer have been ruled out.

I love how Georgia manages to give the vacuum cleaner a very distinct personality – a Mom personality at that – with just the way she positions the hose!

Hey! Is Lupin signing “sorry” in the last panel? Or is that just how he’s holding his free arm? I don’t see any moovles around the arm like around “yes,” “mother,” and “baby” in the other panels.

(Moovles: those lines that indicate movement in a comic strip. According to a very old Bloom County. Apparently Mort Walker called them Blurgits, but as I said a week or two ago, I’m a Gen Xer. See http://allthetropes.wikia.com/wiki/Briffits_andSqueans)

I love how Puck uses the ALS for baby. Nice touch!

LUPIN! PUT SOME CLOSE ON! respects the mother vacum…

Believe me, Lupin, even as I write, that vacuum is giving birth to a million things you do not want to know about.

Once I vacuumed up after my former cat, and as the saying goes, could knit a new one from what I got off the floor and couch (long haired orange, and the fibers twisted like crazy).

This strip is just the right amount of sweetness.

Where’s Ripley???

Just re-read this for the 5th or 6th time (so far) today, and still laughing out loud every time!!

I wonder if Mom Vac’s stance is how the Woman is actually standing.

Move over Superman, it’s Vacuumom to the rescue! Defender of dust busters everywhere.

This is so sweet. As I’m reading it in my head, I realized I whispered, “A MOM? Yes, A MOM.” Love all these tales.

Ah, sweet, innocent, speciesist Puck. You’re just assuming that little dustbuster is the vacuum’s. It’s as likely to be a baby she’s kidnapped from some other vacuum family and is keeping for a later snack or other nefarious purpose. I don’t know many people who’d so easily assume the best of their most nightmarish enemy.

Folks, if you have Twitter, check what Georgia just posted. If you don’t, get it just so you can follow her. I give a hint: think about paper dolls and think about cats…

That vacuume has sass !

I hate to bring this up….but none of this explains where Roombas come from

Just when I’m certain this comic cannot possibly get any cuter, you have them signing to each other over a mommy vacuum. This is dangerous levels of cute you are playing with here

Signing! :-D
