Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for April 11, 2019

Lupin has learned from Robin.

It looks like you have a problem. Lupin, you might want to find a Coffee Addicts Anonymous meeting.

I always get a kick out of the “angry Lupin” face.

I’m not sure any of the boys need coffee, least of all Lupin.

Off topic: Thanks to all who responded to my concerns about the post-surgery cone for Midnite on Monday. She is recovering well, hated the cone; sulked like she was being beaten and bumped into everything. Vet said we could take it off if we watched her. She has not hassled her ear since, so we have left it off. Hopefully she will not mess with her stitches and fully recover. Blood work showed no diabetes (sugar was a little high) but haven’t yet gotten the pathology report. Should hear tomorrow or Monday. Boops and hugs to all. Thanks again!

And Pucky just states the facts. (I hope he’s recovered from the hairball ordeal. )

Could it be that we need an intern to orer Kat Koffee?

In the original, they always gave Lupin decaf. Now we know why.

You have no one to blame but yourself, Lupin. (Or Elvis in this case).

Lupin, you have doomed us all by forgetting to order the coffee!!! (Sorry, Robin)

Puck, stop being sensible, this is serious! Lack of Coffee can lead to extended station breaks and uncontrolled naps!

GASP Robin was right! Out of Lupin’s own mouth, they are ALL doomed!

They need to set up an auto-ship at Chewy. I assume they sell kat koffee, we just get food and litter from them.

They’re down to tea or cocoa!

You mean Olch’s Kat Koffee isn’t available in a local store? Oh dear …

If this is Lupin coming off decatfeinated coffee …

If Lupin does not control his coffee addition, his friends may have to have an intervention. He might end up at facility; Maxwell House. Dr. Hank Folgers will help Lupin remove the millstone of coffee addiction from around his neck. Alas, Lupin is not alone in his quest to not be a jittery joe. The Hill Brothers, the Dunn Brothers and Juan Valdez are all patients. The best time at Maxwell House is in morning, Eight O’ Clock, when they have a home made danish that is chock full o’Nuts.

“GIVE ME MY KAT KOFFEE AND GIVE IT TO ME NOW!”

I can just see Puck reading the opening CN story tomorrow. “In today’s news, a local cat wanders like a zombie through the Pink House because someone” – ::delicate cough:: – “forgot to order our monthly supply of kat koffee.”

Is anyone else wondering what happened to Puck’s arms in the last panel? In my mind’s eye I see them clasped behind his back and he’s leaning a tad forward up on the balls of his lower paws….

Oh no, how can the ceiling ever become the floor again?

SPOILER ZONE

Maybe the boys can get by on three foot long Pixie Stix and Jolt Cola.

Just put Olch’s on auto-order. Simple. Until you have a big backlog.

On Georgia’s FB page there is a photo of a review of Lupin Leaps In from the School Library Journal. It is a Rave! Review! They love it. There is a link to their site but it looks like you need to log on to actually read the review. I was able to enlarge the photo on the FB page and could read most of it. (Note: I don’t have a FB account but have discovered I can scroll Georgia’s page if I link to it from the About tab and ignore the FB ‘create an account’ banner. You do have to wait a few seconds to begin with tho for it to let you scroll.)

Lupin gave a shout-out to Robin!!!

Saturday’s strip predicted:

Panel 1: Lupin, face down on the anchor desk: “zzzzzzz…”

Panel 2: Puck, face down on the birdwatching windowsill: “zzzzzz….” (with chances of cute snores)

Panel 3: Elvis, face down in the middle of the kitchen floor: “zzzzzz…”

Panel 4: Beatrix, leaning into frame: “That’s all, folks!”

Cue Robin!

Sometimes comics mimic real life situations

Reminds me of the Airplane 2 “We’re out of coffee!” scene. OK movie … Nowhere as good as the original movie! ;)

Generate a blanket purchase order for the coffee with your office supply provider.

“You’ve doomed us all!” That’s how I feel when I’m close to running out, and how my associates feel when I haven’t had my coffee.

Will everyone please give their furry best friends an extra warm hug today in memory of my beautiful brown Meggie (Nutmeg). Also, thank your vet and staff for all the great work they do in taking care of our friends and us especially when the time comes to say goodbye.Meg was 18 years old and her health failed extremely fast over the last 2 days. Thank you.

Let’s paws for a commercial

After 16 solid hours of sleep

Start the day with Koffee and a Nom Nom treat*

After standing all day on all four feet

Relax with Koffee and a Nom Nom treat

That midnight pick-me-up,

A snack’s not quite enough,

Knock down a lamp, it feels so sweet,

With a cup of Koffee and a Nom Nom treat!

*From Our IX Lives

This happens in my house, but over the monthly catnip rations

Just a quick question for coffee and tea drinkers: what’s your favorite brew method? Me: I grind the beans I need this morning, do a pour over, and drink it black. Hubby likes coffee just fine but his preferred drink is Earl Grey (tea bag), with sugar and a dollop of milk.

jasmine downy pearls for tea

Hmmm, now who could make a coffee run, I wonder?

Smart-aleck Lupin gets a little come-uppence!

Too late for addiction treatment?

It’s always someone else’s fault. Quick order from Amazon 2 hour delivery. Keep it together boys.

OT: Diego

Any word from Georgia on Puck?

What happened with the real Puck?

Unscheduled naps coming to a station near you.

This is when Beatrix comes in and announces that she ordered the coffee.

I hope real-life Pucky continues to feel better?

One of the guys should be permanently assigned to coffee duty. That way, Lupin wouldn’t have to go through withdrawal.

From the BCN Facebook page (luckily it is public and you don’t need an account).

Thank you so, so much for all of your kind words and love and thoughts for Puck today! Our vet did not feel any masses or see/feel any blockages in his exam. He also believes that Puck has a real stubborn hairball happening (TMI maybe, but most of us are cat people, lol). He did some tried-and-true methods to try and assist Puck, and our little guy already seems much better compared to this morning. We have plans to touch base again at the end of the week if he is still showing symptoms, sooner if anything gets worse. Right now he seems more comfortable than last night and that’s a good start. Poor little guy! He is very loved and we felt the love today for sure; thank you!!! ❤️

So glad to hear that Puck is doing well! I was worried.

If Elvis ordered coffee last month instead of this month, who was supposed to order coffee last month – and did they? If so, there would be a two month supply on hand.

I just received my copies of the two BCN books! I’m thrilled, but disappointed that Lupin Leaps Out ends just before the greatest storyline in BCN history (that year).

Looking forward to volume 3. <^o.o^< My attempt at a cat.

No Affiliation.

If you love Kona coffee but can’t imagine paying the price ($35+ per pound) you need to do what I do.

Kauai coffee is about 98% as good as Kona. Most people can’t even tell the difference. I subscribe and have it mailed direct from the island for about $15 per pound. Whole bean. Keep it in the freezer and grind only what you need.

Does lack of coffee cause hairballs?

Rookie mistake there, you don’t put ordering critical supplies on a rotation, because nobody ever knows when they’re up in the rotation!

For lack of coffee, the cats were lost.

Lupin needs decaf!
