Those pictures! Pucky hanging on to Elvis’s jacket; Elvis carrying Pucky (and Pucky’s little kitten tail hanging straight down); Elvis curled up with his tail around baby Puck, who is cradled there, on his back, totally zonked.
Ahh, do not be ashamed Elvis, it looks like you really took Puck under your wing! Elvis looks pretty cool in the baggie pants and hoodie which still seems to be popular with at least some of the 21 and under crowd as it is my daughter’s and her roommate’s current everyday attire of choice and is also quite popular with some of the younger students in my community college classes when the weather cools off.
You can really see why, through all of the (obligatory adjective: dignified!) crust, Elvis is really just a softie at heart who really cares for his best buds.
OT: to kitty katz…I saw yesterdays post from you just before today’s strip went up. I too send encouragement and best wishes to you. You have already seen how much support you have here.
Surely, the teen years were only a month or two for Elvis? And, given some of the fashion choices I’ve seen over the years, he doesn’t look too outrageous – a bit more hair than we’re used to seeing (time takes care of that for many a human male!), and a more relaxed style, but at least he’s not Goth!
I love Elvis’s hair over his eyes and the grunge look. I always wondered what Mr. Button-down with a tie and braces looked like as a teenager. At least we can all be thankful that it is not the late sixties/early seventies. I don’t think I could take Elvis as a hippie.
I’m not very familiar with Siamese cats. Is it normal that they don’t get the darker coloring in the face until they are fully grown, or why was this coloring choice made? I almost didn’t recognize teen Elvis in yesterday’s strip.
El Biff—you’ve been outed. Nobody’s going to believe the crusty shell, any more than we believe Robin’s. Speaking of—where is the antipodean curmudgeon?

Bravo Georgia Dunn! Thank You for being here on the Planet, and sharing your thoughts and feelings with all of us. I will never forget the teen photos of Elvis. And it occurs to me for the first time that “Puck” can mean a small round, black object as well as a character from Shakespeare.
It’s not that Puck is showing the photos to Goldie that really worries Elvis, it’s that he know Lupin will see them and see that Elvis was a scaredy cat.
By the way, after looking at baby Elvis on the BCN website’s bio page for Elvis recently, why doesn’t teen elvis have a tan nose and ear tips? Not a brown face like adult Elvis has, but a tan face. That photo of baby Elvis in his Christmas sweater (which Georgia assures us he hated) was cute, and yes Elvis does seem to be in shadow. But his ears and nose are clearly darker than the rest of his body. http://www.breakingcatnews.com/about-breaking-cat-news-2/about-elvis/. Third photo after the bio

He Ain’t Heavy
The road is long
And quite hard travel there
Especially when missing
One paw
But I am strong,
His burden I can bear
Puck ain’t heavy
He’s my brother!
…….
We’ll walk and nap
Together we both will learn
No need to fret
We’ll get there
For we both know
Joy is doubled when shared
Puck ain’t heavy
He’s my brother!
…….
If I poof at all
I’m poofing with sadness,
Some don’t understand,
Puck brings me such gladness
And we love one another!
…….
It’s a long, long road
The reward must be earned
Sun beams found to nap,
We will both share
In years to come, we will show how much we care
Puck ain’t heavy
He’s my brother!

Is it just me, or does Baby Puck look rather like a big robber mouse? Perhaps that’s why he’s so close too Buzzy?

For all my Orb Friends: Abba’s Thank You for the Music
I’m nothing special, just a part of this wondrous Orb
If I tell a joke, you may have heard it before
But I have a talent, a wonderful thing
I can make lyrics to songs people like to sing
I’m so grateful and proud
My friends, I want to to sing it out loud
So I say
Thank you for the music, you make feel like singing
Thanks for all the joy you’re bringing
Your support is so wonderful, I ask in all honesty
What would life be?
Without joy and caring, what are we?
So I say thank you for the music
For giving it to me

If there’s ever any doubt about how much Elvis and Puck love each other, refer back to the third panel here:

It’s ok Elvis, everyone hates looking back at their teen years. Well, except maybe Lupin, who probably hasn’t changed any.
