Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for April 24, 2021

I’m honestly not sure if Elvis intends to attack the Man or eat him.

You . . . really thought this was a place for a bad joke?

On your own head be it! (Literally)

Out loud, out of control giggling at just past midnight… hope the downstairs didn’t hear that…

This might not be the right time for kidding.

“Really, it’s Kiddle.”

As I’ve mentioned, I’m a fan of “witch cozy” mysteries. I started a new series last night. As is expected of the genre, the woman, who’d been adopted as a baby, has just inherited a bakery from a birth mother she never knew and when she meets her aunt and cousins, they inform her she’s a witch. She has just met her familiar, a talking cat named Shakes (short for William Shakespaw). The cat, who is not happy with the food she has bought, complains “I feel as though you’re getting me store-brand food, when I’m obviously a name-brand kind of cat.”

Shrieking with laughter at the sight of Elvis leaping on the man! Kibble is no kidding matter!

Any possibioity that Elvis can rotate in air and not accost Man. No? At worse maybe a claws retreated hug.

…But there IS an "I’ in BITE! Yikes, Elvis!

Burt’s an Angel! Oh, incoming Demon, Mr Man…

I see panel five – Kibble flying all overe the floor and Elvis luxuriating in it. “Mine all mine.”

Since Burt is semi-feral, I’m sure he’s known hard times. Instead of whining, he’s just glad to be in a place where he doesn’t have to kill what he eats, which is the life of some barn cats. Goldie has lived in the lap of comfort so long now that she’s forgotten to be grateful for any meal she doesn’t have to scavenge.

I just spotted Lupin hanging on the screen door. Made me laugh!

scaeva anyone

Demonstrating the Elvis Attack Chopper.

Burts the kind of tough guy who can chew up rocks and spit out Kebble.

Doesn’t the Kubble company also make space telescopes? “Our food is out of this world!”

Until now I have always thought it unfair how Elvis treats The Man. Now I realize he deserves it.

Elvis is putting his wrestling experience to good use. This is awesome.

Elvis has turned into a killer squirrel! Run, Man, run!!

This is pure genius Georgia! I literally burst out laughing. Much appreciated!

There’s no I in Kebble. Good thing too. Would you want to eat something with eyes in it?

Kabble. Kobble. Gribble. Gravel….

I’m not sure about the Man’s future.

1) I can’t believe the man thinks it’s safe to joke! 2) Love the colours of panel three and 3) I’m glad the pointy sharp bits of Elvis aren’t pointed at me!

ELVIS, NO!!!

At the earliest possible opportunity, I am going to say the words aloud, “Disappointed Gasp!” As one does.

Also, toe beans on screen door!

All together now! "The Man is… DOOMED! "

I likes Burt. He a simple down to earth guy like me.

Starting the day with a LOL, even in a sleeping house, is bliss. Thanks Georgia.

Oh look, a rare flying cat.

Oh waitsaminute…

Dig in, Burt.

That second panel should be an magazine Ad. “There’s no I in KEBBLE!” Love it!

Also, kinda reminds me of the spoof breakfast cereal commercial SNL did decades ago for QUARRY. Nothing but rocks and pebbles. Stays crunchy in milk. Chock full of minerals.

“Better for you, because it’s MINED.”

Elvis, NO!!!

Yet another reason why cats are questionable pets, lol.

Ooohhhh elvis.

Elvis is wound a bit tightly

Woman: “You got the right one this time?”

Man: “Kubble right?”

Elvis: “And that’s when I killed him, Your Honor…”

Elvis has just turned into Wolverine!!!

Elvis isn’t planning ahead for more than 70 or 80 seconds into the future of this latest move of his.

Handsome and brave, that’s what I like about Bert.

Man, no one is laughing. Pretty soon you won’t be laughing when Elvis got his paw on you.

I don’t know what it is that makes Burt like it so

I’m only glad that Kebble had a place to go

‘Cause that’s really something, oh, can’t you see?

That ever since Man got it, it’s been a travesty

It’s awfully hard to chew, Burt’s the macho of the CN crew

It doesn’t matter where Man goes or what he sees

He must spend each moment just on his dear cats’ needs

Well, look what has happened, Burt eats this shizz

I never knew there’d be a no-fuss cat like this

It’s crazy but it’s true, Burt, Kebble looks mighty good on you

And Man, no matter what you do, don’t joke about kibble

I said, no matter, no matter what you do

You can’t stop Elvis boopin’ you

(Ivor Raymonde / Michael Hawker – I Only Want To Be With You/Dusty)

Lupin is in fine form, clinging to the screen door.

The face!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I want a t-shirt with Elvis in panel 4 on it!

Elvis, now THERE’S a cat that takes his kibble seriously.

Love Burt’s woman’s hair! I tried to dye mine purple and it was quite a disappointment. :(

Elvis, yes!

Pucky Mason and the Case of the Horked Shoes

Pucky Mason: Della Bea, can you take some dictation?

Della Bea: Sure can. Where do you want me to take it to?

Pucky: Nowhere special. The filing cabinet is fine.

Della Bea: You do know we can store it online.

Pucky: I keep forgetting. Take it where you will.

Knock at the door

Della Bea: Come in, Goldie Drake.

Goldie: I’m here for your major investigation.

Pucky: But I don’t have a client yet.

Goldie: A good detective never waits to the last minute.

Enter Elvis

Elvis: I’m being accused of horking in the Man’s shoes. It’s not true!

Pucky: Alright. Calm down and tell me what happened.

Elvis: The Man bought this awful food called Kebble! I was angry enough to poof, but that’s all. Next thing I heard, someone had horked in his favorite sneakers.

Pucky: Can you account for your whereabouts at the time of the barf?

Elvis As near as I can tell, I was having my portrait done at the photographers.

Pucky: Goldie, can you investigate the scene?

Goldie: Sure thing.

Sometime Later

Goldie: I went to the Big Pink House, and there was Elvis’ portrait on the mantel plain as day.

Elvis: That can’t be! I was framed!

(To Be Continued)

Incoming ticked off Siamese.

I am a new member. I joined specifically to be part of this wonderful group

A kiddley divey too, wouldn’t you?

The Man must be taught that SOME things are too important to joke about.

I’m surprised I really like this comic as I don’t like most cats. Most of the cats in my life have been super aloof or like Elvis. And picky eaters.

ELVIS YES

Burt’s like the husband in Monty Python’s Spam sketch – “I’ll have your Kebble dearies, I love it!”

I play tricks on my cats sometimes, just to keep them from getting bored. I will “lose” a cat and go around the house calling. The cat is eventually “found” and happy about it. Other times, I will deliberately turn my back on one of my cats, “hiding” in the high grass, so she can have the thrill of the “surprise attack”, which involves a sudden rush and “counting coup” on me with a tap from both front paws.

But food, no, food is too serious. All the messing around comes after dinner.

Burt has a plaid thermos. How cool is that?

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Kirby (pictured in avatar) only ate kibble. He killed between 50 and 100 gophers over a six-year-period – only ate kibble – a true SportsCat

Yay everyone’s happy. Burt gets kebble, and BCN gets kibble. I like how Lupin is just hanging on the screen door, and Elvis just lept at the man for his long waited kibble.

Elbiff it was a joke, one in bad taste for sure.

INCOMING!!!! “Computer, run emergency medical hologram.” “Please state the nature of the medical …. YOU again!”

Fear the wrath of Elvis!

Ah, Burt knows it’s food.

Cry “Havoc!” and let slip the Cat of War!

my cat likes kobble

Georgia! You forgot the fifth panel!

Still and all, it’s not a good idea for cats to get too dependent on a particular type of food. What if the manufacturer reformulates, or goes out of business altogether?

Panel 4: Man! Incoming!

Elvis has no sense of humor.
