Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for December 14, 2018

Oh no! Cat down. Elvis is wounded. Call 911!

The mice were always my favourite thing in Disney’s Cinderelly.

Between Elvis and Natasha, I don’t know who to put my money on!

Quick, someone get Jerry in his Mouseketter uniform. If he can duel Tom successfully he can sure duel Natasha.

Thought that sewing needle was just a fashion accessory, did you Elvis?

Don’t get your eye too close to the mouse hole, Elvis.

I’m not a tailor, I’m a criminal! yes, robber mice have their pride!

Elvis may not want to get poked again, but he can certainly lay siege to the mousehole.

Too bad the Pink House does not have dogs. If we backed my Bulmastiff up to that mousehole, he could deliver fully organic gas attacks.

Don’t quite understand panel 4. Anyone?

Elvis purple paw pad!

The mice sewed Cinderella ball gown.

Poor Elvis! Did the big bad mousey hurt you? If I don’t know that I would be putting my eye right up to that hole… Natasha’s mighty mean with a darning needle!

Quick! Elvis needs some ham and a cheese wheel.

Poor Elvis needs a bandage for his paw.

The other three might have escaped, but Agnes is doomed.

Stinker Tailor; Elvis cry.

Somebody has got a point to make.

Good morning and TGIF, orbsters and orbabies! That is certainly one indignant blue eyeball in the last panel!

“This ain’t Cinderella!” Better buckle in; this comic has just gotten serious.

Stabity, stab stab!

Hey cant we all just get along?

Why that vile villanaous vermin. Lay another trap and eat them, cat!

Count your days and say your prayers, you harbinger of plagues. You messed with the wrong cat!

Now that we’ve seen a good deal of them I think I can D&Dize the Robber Mice: Obviously they are all Rogues but of different subclasses. Alice is a Mastermind and, IMHGO, the only Evil one. Natasha is a Swashbuckler and probably Neutral or Chaotic Neutral. Agnes and Violet are Thieves, both Neutral but with Good tendencies in Agnes’ case.

That moment when your Secret Santa beneficiary says “you know me so well!” when you didn’t know her at all and just made a few random guesses …

But will … Elvis suffer(?), then have ‘left the building’?! (I think NOT!!) :)

“THIS AIN’T CINDERELLA!” …

Elvis: "Yeah?! And you ain’t PRISCILLA, either!! ;)

…“this ain’t Cinderella!”…no, but if Elvis gets hold of you, start humming “3 Blind Mice”…

Things are definitely escalating. This will be a real brawl.

“This ain’t Cinderella”

“This ain’t Beauty & The Beast either. I’m going to eat you at the end, you reeky rabid rat!”

Those mice are getting WAY too big for their britches . . . except they don’t seem to wear any!

Does the BCN Department have an Medal for sustaining an injury while battling vermin? The Purple Paw?

My daughter received another half a gift yesterday. Not from the same source, since it was the same half… and apparently they do prefer the heads.

Alright you little crook. Don’t you hurt our Elvis. Stealing from our boys and hurting Puck’s feeling then injuring Elvis. Don’t make us audience demand mouse traps with peanut butter to catch you.

OMC, don’t poke him in the eye, you.. you.. dirty little ratette!

Elvis has a great set of claws. He didn’t bargain for a mouse with a javelin.

Not Cinderella, Natasha? How about this from Rogers and Hammerstein’s Cinderella?

Ten minutes ago I saw you

All your mouse friends all ran from the floor

No option to fail, I ran straight for the tailor,

She told me, “No I’m so much more.”

Ten minutes Puck launched the cheese trap

Guess he did the best that he could do,

But I still have to say that three mice got away,

And Natasha gave me a boo-boo!

We got Agnes,

We’ll find Buzzy

We’ll continue to fight through the war,

We will find Alice and Violet

And we’ll be sure to give them what-for!

The Prince of Pounce is determined,

To come to the aid of his friend

Will he succeed? Can we tell?

And will Lupin as well?

We must wait to see how this will end.

All the orbsters must wait ’till the end!

“This ain’t Cinderella!” Still one of my favorite lines in the strip.

All the Cinderella comments remind me of a radio commercial for a local sporting-goods store in Fort Collins, Colorado. It was one of a series of commercials with a character called “The General” and this one referenced “Cinderella” saying, “Listen, the mice in your house don’t want to make your clothes, they want to eat them!”

And then don’t even get me started on the Princess Bride comment. Seriously, don’t, because I can pretty much quote the entire movie from memory.

Hee hee, Elvis reminds me of when our old girl caught her first mouse. She was slamming it with her paw of doom, but it kept nipping her toe beans, making her yelp like our suspendered hero. That first mouse was the one got away… but she learned!
