Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for June 24, 2021

I hope Pucky isn’t foreshadowing a leaky roof! Poor Buzzy! Toss him back! He’s too small!!!

“What bait did you use, Puck?”

IMHO the great outdoors is always better indoors. I’ll need to try living room tenting sometime.

I love the “wind sounds” crawl. This past year, I’ve been watching someone build stuff on YouTube. Sometimes he forgets to move the camera to follow him when he goes over to another power tool, and his video editor has taken to inserting * bandsaw noises * or * belt sander noises * in the empty frame.

Oh no! Is Pucky catfishing?

That’s… Not Buzzy Mouse…

Fishing for compliments, Puck? And nice to see Burt’s having fun.

Hm, what kind of bait does one need to catch a Buzzy Mouse?

Bucky is so cute, I can hardly stand it.

For some reason this is reminding me of a soundsheet I used to have, possibly a promo from Field & Stream, on improving your fishing skills.

Puck has the best wardrobe!!! This may be better than his lederhosen!? Or maybe not, but it’s close!!

Glad to see he caught him by the string’s ring!!!

WHOOSH*WIND SOUNDS sums it up perfectly, Burt,

Bert is having fun with the text scroll (or maybe he’s doing closed captions for the hearing impaired)

Puck reminds me of Lt. Col. Henry Blake.

We don’t need any cats going outside to report from the height of the storm like Jim Cantore.

Hadn’t seen Buzzy in quite a while. I suspect he was with all of the pens Lupin had batted under the sofa.

Since they is camping indoors, you cats has all the chance to steals their picanic baskets.

Doesn’t Puck realize it is delayed harvest for Buzzy Mice? Flies only and barbless hooks.

Pucky has the best wardrobe!

Will there be cat sized tents set up? Are they planning on sitting around and telling scary ghost stories while shining flashlights under their chins?

BCN should get some product placement promotional fees from LL Bean, Columbia or whoever hooked Puck up with his outdoorsman outfit! Very stylish!

Imagine buying a plush Elvis, Lupin & Pucky. Now imagine little outfits you can purchase and put on them for special occasions, holidays, and special reporting duty, etc.

I think people would be interested.

Nice to see Puck is well prepared for the weather.

Meanwhile, Back on the Nile

Thomios: In honor of the Summer Season, we are having a Summer Banquet outdoors in the palace courtyard.

Puckmosis: Ooh, I hope we’re having a salad buffet.

Thomios: Of course. And a variety of cool soups like gazpacho and vichyssoise.

Elvis-Anum: And I hear that Maat-Tilda and Sophititi are displaying their tapestry for the first time.

Enter Maat-Tilda and Sophititi

Maat-Tilda: Can someone lend a paw with the tapestry hanging?

Beatrixia: Sure. I can lend several toes as well.

Suddenly a gust of wind or something enters

Lupinium: I’m back everyone!

Sophitit: Welcome back. Just watch out for the tapestry.

Later, after a delicious banquet

Serfig-Aro: I am pleased to announce the entertainment for tonight will perform her Tapestry songs. Let’s give it up for Carole-Pharoah!

In the summer time when the rainstorms are here

Pucky dresses right up in cute outdoor gear

When weather’s not kind

He’s got fishing, he’s got fishing on his mind

Rocks a look, baits a hook

Casts a line to see what he can find

With a big heart, with a talent for a chart

He loves everybody and he’s sweet as he can be

When it’s not sunny

He goes fishing and oops, catches a Buzzy

He makes us happy

Long’s we’re with him & his funny family

Sing along with us, dee dee dee dee dee

Da da da da da, yeah we’re hap-pap-py

Da da da dee da doo dee da dee da dee da da

Break out the lemonade, People!

Speaking (reading?) of weather, it’s a perfect summer day here. Hope it’s the same for you.

“I meant to do my work today—

But a brown bird sang in the apple-tree

And a butterfly flitted across the field,

And all the leaves were calling me."

–Richard Le Gallienne

I wonder where they live if they’re getting a tropical storm.

OT : Prayers, boops, purrs are requested for the people affected by the condo collapse in Florida and for all the police, fire and rescuers assisting in the search.

Puck’s fishing outfit is adorable! And his patch is visible! And he made the Catch of the Day: A Buzzy Mouse! Squee!

The kind of camping my wife and daughters love. Waiting more than 30 minutes for room service is considered roughing it by my girls. I am so looking forward to visiting the Gates of the Arctic National Park this July.

I’m waiting for someone (Lupin, most likely) to scale Mt. Canvas & plant a Flag of Conquest on the peak!

My entire body is going “awwwwwwww”.

It’s good they have their toys; he could have caught ennui.

“Woosh – wind sounds” LOLOL

I used to have a cat toy fishing rod that I would bait with various fuzzy “lures” and troll them across the living room.

I love the great indoors!

Couldn’t agree more, Puck.

I think this is another example of Georgia showing us that even though the cats see our actions, they don’t always understand all the little details—such as you are very unlikely to catch a fish in the living room of a second floor apartment:) Or maybe Pucky recently watched Pollyanna. I can remember similar indoor fishing games at childhood birthday parties.

None of the prizes I ever fished out from behind the mystery blanket were as sweet as Buzzy Mouse!

OT: Books

Meanwhile, in the background the Man is teaching the kids all about mortgages as the campfire story. “So in a buyers’ market, the property can go…”

Fisherman Puck! The cutest thing i have seen all week!

I especially love the small Fisherman Pucky!
