Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for February 17, 2020

Ah, so maybe Goldie won’t take on a reporter’s role, despite being part of the household – she’ll be their story finder! And then the boys can report on her investigations!

OT: Shirin and Nushi update!

And the detective is on the case! Love the “snoot boops” book!

“Snoot Boops of History” … I wonder what that’s about … I have this bizarre image of Napoleon booping Nelson on the snoot …

Is Beatrix based on a real cat?If so I want to see those beans!

I’m really concerned, and broke.. the last day of so my indoor cat Purrsha has been snuffling and quick sneezing.. she’s a little lethargic but will eat her treats.. she turned her nose up at her new “better for you with protein” 9 lives today (same brand, different flavor) but she IS drinking water. Seems she has a cold but I don’t know how to treat her or help her feel better?? I’m a little freaked out that she could die if I don’t take her to the vet, which as I mentioned I can’t afford at the moment.. advice pretty please??

I see that Goldie found her pen.

And is that the infamous tape recorder in her left paw? (Panel 4)

OOPS, right paw! My bad.

As Dave Barry would say, “Snoot Boops” would be a great name for a rock band.

All flesh is grass. All grass is doomed.

I would pay a significant amount* for a BCN/Bad Machinery crossover.

*Well, I’d like it, anyway.

When lawn type grass goes dormant, it turns brown and looks dead but all it takes is a good soaking of rain for it to green up again. I have no experience with cat grass.

I told you it’s a mystifying mystery of the mysterious grass, folks.

V.I. Warmeowski is on the case!

“Snoot Boops of History” I love it!

Did Beatrix draw that visual aid? Has she been taking lessons from Sophie or is it from a reference book there in the bookstore?

All right. gang. Looks like we have another mystery on our hands. Also, why does Gocomics put a red line under words that are spelled perfectly fine?

As much as I love the Boys (and I do adore the Boys), it’s nice to have a day with the kitty ladies. Hmmm, I wonder if there’s a story that will bring Sophie, Baba, Tabitha, Goldie and Beatrix all together.

“The Mystery of the Dead Cat Grass” – a fitting case for our resident investigative reported and her tireless research assistant.

The game is afoot. In fact, four feet. To a customer!

I…I need a copy of Snoot Boops of History. Right now. Gimme!

In comparing paws the size difference is significant!

Obviously they’ve never dealt with Zoysia grass. It’s a perennial & in a drought or under cold conditions that stuff turns brown & looks dead – a neighbor’s lawn around the corner from here always looks dead – but it’s pretty much unkillable.

Happy Pluto Day! (The astronomical object, not the god of the underworld, and most certainly not the dog.) I disagree with it’s demotion! In my opinion, any celestial body with sufficient mass that gravity pulls it into spherical shape, and that orbits (or perhaps orbited) a star, is a planet. Yes, that makes our Moon a planet, and it should. The Moon does not orbit the Earth. Both Moon and Earth orbit the gravitational center of their combined mass. (Actually more complex than that, but we won’t go into details.) So Earth-Moon is a binary planet system—just like Pluto and its moon Charon!

Ironic that the god of the underworld, Pluto, was also the god of wealth.

Our first mystery!

OT Rescue/Re-Home.

I re-homed Sweetheart. She was a rescue for her previous person.

Kiki is a re-home of a re-home of a rescue.

Two of my birds are rescues, and two are re-homes.

This looks like a job for Purry Mason!

No particular tune

Beatrix: I’ll research it all around!

Goldie: I will search until it’s found!

Tabitha: A we won’t take anything from anyone!

Sophie: And the statement we will make!

Sophie: Will be heard, make no mistake!

Baba: And we will not quit until we get it done!

…….

All: We are the Feline Ladies League

And we will help anyone who is in need!

We will never mess around!

We will take on all the town

You can bet your kibble we’ll succeed!I

Yes we are the Feline Ladies’ League!

We love all our orb friends, yes indeed!

We can all be very nice

With our sister Robber Nice

But when trouble comes,

We’ll take the lead!

Think it got replaced the the People of the house.

Find where the septic tank is located, Goldie! … THERE’S your answer!! :)

Grass grows from the base up. It’s perfectly possible for grass stalks to be withered and dead while the plant is still alive. That’s why it can be grazed without killing the plant.

I love a good mystery!

Well look at little Goldie, the fashionista. Such a lovely outfit.

Well, it could be resurrection grass. Never heard of such a thing, but I suppose it’s possible. Might be something like the resurrection fern species Pleopeltis polypodioides.

Is Beatrix watering that cat grass?

Hi all,To all who remember my sis Shaunnmunn, she asked me to let you know that she totally mentally crashed and burned last week. It was due to several physical and mental conditions all coming together at the same time and completely overwhelming her. A side note to Bri, Kat and Sheila, she would appreciate letters from you but is not sure she is up to replying right now. I would appreciate prayers and well wishes from the Orb, and I send them back to all of you. Thank you, Lori

I see "Cats and Dogs and think of the movie by the same title.

…maybe there’s a bit in there about cats historically being treated as villains? =(

Update:

The dog is in custody pending contacting the “owner.” That is one dog that should not be allowed out. Ever.

I think the Woman just brought out another pot of cat grass whilst Goldie was getting her pen!

Yay, mystery time!

Is Goldie’s lucky pen decorated with four-leaf clovers?

Finally, the two smart girls get together. No offense to Tabitha or Baba. Tabitha just works better solo. Baba has to be in charge.

Georiga, write a BCN extended universe book named “Snoot Boops of History”. It would immediately be a bestseller.
