Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for June 02, 2020

Aww Cat looks a lot like Elvis. No wonder Siamese view themselves as so special.

The Chonky-Boi is pretty epic! Wouldn’t want to see His Holy Horkage, though …

I just noticed that Bandit DOESN’T say “mysterious.” XDDD Nice touch.

“Nap your way out of this.” Always good advice.♥

I think “mischievous ways” is a lot truer to life than other versions with different spellings might be.

I say this as someone who was just now, moments ago, rewatching Good Omens.

But what was Bandit doing in an abandoned mine shaft in the first place?

“Nap your way out of this.” I can do that.

Why am I not surprised that Cat is Siamese? After all, Siamese are special. Legend has it that a Siamese cat guarded the king’s cup, and that’s how they got the crook in their tails.

In other news, my Goldie notebook came in today’s mail! The artwork is beautiful, and it has all the characters.

OT: A powerful piece about the Black American experience

I wonder what the in-universe production value on that sequence was.

Of course Elvis is their god. Who else could it be? Like Robin, he neer watches to know…

Just checking to see whether Gent has left any interesting comments on the ultimate nature of the Universe. Not paying any attention to the slush in the strip.

Why was Bandit dressed like a miner in an abandoned mine?

Cat helmet has cat ears.

This story line is tedious.

Life is a mystery

Everyone must own a phone

I heard Cat call my name

And he helped me home

When Cat called my name ’twas like a little prayer

Stuck in this mine shaft, I wanted outta there

In the midnight hour I could feel his power

Just like a prayer, Cat will end despair

I heard his voice

Better than angels sighing

I had no choice, I heard Cat’s voice

I felt like crying

I closed my eyes

Oh Cat, I think I’m napping

Cat’s in the sky, I closed my eyes

Trippin’ saved me

Just like a prayer

Like a Prayer – Madonna

The Big Chonky Boi in the sky! I love it!

Cat be praised! He has given Bandit a blessing, and a quest to find the Holy Grail—err, wait, wrong story, sorry.

Panel 2: Bandit the miner has a miner’s helmet with cat ears, a pickaxe and a plaid shirt! [Falls back in easy chair laughing with joy]

Ah yes. Just as I had suspected. It’s the giant cat god in the skies. Still nowhere near the mightyness of the mightiest of em all, the one true lord, the giant bear god in the skies!

I love the font in which Cat is “speaking.”

Hallemewjah! Hallemewjah sisters, brothers, and kittens. I have seen Cat and He has told me the way to salvation and that way is NAPPING.

I can see Puck nodding along to this. He knows the value of 16 hours of sleep a day.

I LIKE this Supreme Being! From now on, I shall nap religiously! Zzzzzz

Soap operas are so fake – tripping over a black cat who is napping in the dark of an abandoned mine shaft? Nah, that couldn’t ever happen.

Listen to Cat’s first commandment – Thou shalt nap 16 hours a day.

Kit, don’t scratch litter onto Cat’s mischievous ways.

I love every little thing about this. To highlight them would be just to repeat the entire strip. So clever. So funny. So adorable.

Fat Elvis is god. Now we know!

“Tripped over me.” Love it!

Meyowalulah! Amewn and pass the warm milk so that I can sleep my troubles and sins away! Praise be the Chonky Boi!

Oh I get it the news boys must be on vacation. Random reruns playing in their time slot

Bandit’s policeman badge is a cat head!

Chunky Elvis as Almighty Cat! I love it!

OT: Paul: Paul seems to be improving slowly. He’s quite alert this morning, and I hope to get him sitting outside later today.

“The rescuers tripped over me and I was saved.”

So that’s why my female cat sprawls out on the stair treads. She isn’t trying to kill me, she’s hoping for a religious experience!

Wait, isn’t Bastet the primary cat deity?

I’m torn over this storyline. It’s cute from a cat’s point of view but also a bit sacrilegious.

Love this..

Such a cat rescue philosophy! It beats running around in circles until you exhaust yourself. I hope no rescuers were injured by falling over a black cat in the dark.

I always suspected the supreme being to be a cat. For one thing, there’s that part about His eye being on the sparrow.

You know it’s a real and sincere religious event if the word “unto” is used in the description.

Meanwhile, Back on the Nile

Serfig-Aro: Your Majesty, the camels from Afar, Kara and Vann, have come to visit.

Queen Catshepsut the Golden: Welcome, Kara and Vann, and what day is it?

Vann: Every day is Hump Day! Even if it’s not Wednesday.

Kara: We bring news from Queen Mags, who has weathered the storm, but needs your help.

The Queen: Of course. What does she say?

Kara: (Reading scroll)

Hey, Stray, whadiya say? We had a storm and need help today.

Our dumpsters now are empty and how!

Can my favorite Cat Queen help the rodents now

The Queen: We would be happy to help. Puckmosis, prepare for a journey to Afar. We will take the usual gang along. Where are the Royal Procurers?

Alice-Ata: We’re all here, and we’ll get all the supplies you need.

The Queen: How do you mice always know what we need and where to get it?

Ta-Natash: You don’t want to know!

Today is Rocky Road Day …

Gee, thanks for the Weird Al Yankovic EARWORM.

I never cared for the ice cream because the only way I like marshmallows is immolated. (I don’t really like S’mores, either.) Of course, now that I’ve had mochi (which I don’t like either), I can say there is something worse. It’s the texture, and both substances stick to my teeth—I hate that feeling.

Actually, I know why I don’t like these things: they resemble fat, organ, and connective tissue. Some people don’t mind it, or even like it. But ever since I was very young, I’ve hated the texture, and connective tissue always gets caught between my teeth. Just writing this is giving me a strange, unpleasant sensation.

All of which merely proves De gustibus non disputandem est. There is no disputing a matter of taste. Pass the ice cream, hold the marshmallows.

I wonder if I’d like Rocky Road ice cream flambe … pass the cognac.

It’s love, Brother Cat say

Brother Cat’s Travelling Salvation Show

Pack up the kittens

And grab the old queenies

And everyone goes

’Cause everyone knows

Brother Cat’s show

Can’t go wrong with a nap.

FOXES. According the wildlife experts, American foxes, unlike their larger British cousins, won’t attack cats and small dogs. Yesterday, I spotted a huge cat with its hair poofed up in fear on a window ledge so I looked downward. A fox was below it with a good chance at taking it off the ledge. I went outside to scare away the fox, and the stupid cat jumped down toward the fox. As they disappeared in to the woods, the fox was almost to its rear so the outcome probably wasn’t good even though the cat was half-again the size of the fox. Those with outdoor cats and foxes in the area may want to rethink the status of their pets.

Georgia posted pictures of Roscoe the cat from her childhood that she based Cat on:

Great comic!

So God is a fat Siamese?

O.T. I know it’s late but I just can’t wait until tomorrow—I am so happy and grateful to be able to say that the lightning bugs are back, I just saw my first ones of the summer a few minutes ago!!!! They are a little late this year and I was worried, but they made it back. Seems there are fewer every year. I hope I don’t live long enough to see a time when the lightning bugs don’t return.

….and he mewed unto me… great line!

this is so cute!

IS THERE A REASON GOD LOOKS LIKE ELVIS
