Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for February 10, 2022

“Glamour Hammer”! I love that name. Sophie has a kindred spirit!

Glamour Hammer. Great name. Would love to see a raccoon family tree.

I knew I would catch up with fashion one day.

But what does Glamour Hammer DO with a glamour hammer and a fashionable gray plastic vacuum hose? Enquiring minds want to know……

At first I thought the plunger was the Glamour Hammer. Is it being used as a scepter? I have a gray vacuum hose very similar that fits onto my upright sweeper. Wrapped around the arms like that, it is giving me a Lost in Space Robot vibe. “Danger, Will Robinson!”

Careful. A vacuum boa is more dangerous than a boa constrictor. It will suck the life out of you.

I want to go junking with them! They find the coolest stuff.

Meanwhile, Back on the Nile

Queen Mags: The Raccoons from Afar wish to announce the first annual Project Catwalk fashion competition.

Sophititi: Shall we work on a project for the competition?

Maat-Tilda: Let’s see if Adobe Style wants to take part.

Sometime Later

Adobe Style: I’d love to collaborate with you on a fashion project. How about we create an ensemble using some of our textile projects, Tillie, with some of Sophititi’s found artwork?

Maat-Tilda: Sounds like a plan. Do you have enough material for found object artwork, Soph?

Sophititi: I’ll need to check. Somehow I think some more will come my way shortly.

At the hideout, uh, office of the Royal Procurers

Alice-Ata: Now we want to be fair to everyone. Tillie and company need trash, uh found objects, while Bea and Tabith-Isis need fabric and red dots for the climbing curtain competition.

Agnes-Ata: What about refreshments?

Alice: Arachna said the locusts have a plague scheduled for this week for spider treats. That leaves Thomios. We need to see what he’s planning to make so we can plan our strategy accordingly. Just remember one thing…

Royal Procurers: We never tell!

They have a trashion show going on?

I do love Mags’ “fang of satisfaction” in the middle panel.

I’m starting to get concerned about @scaeva. He hasn’t posted in 4 days. Sending out some of his heavy furry rumbles in hopes that he’s OK.

So, Agnes’ smart suit .

Anybody else reminded of Jacqueline Kennedy next to JF Kennedy in a similar smart suit? (Just needs that little hat)

Or are you reminded of Reese Witherspoon in Legally Blonde wearing the same (or similar) suit?

Or perhaps you’re more “Marge Simpson” wearing the suit she found on sale and bought for herself?

On Glamour Hammer’s find, fashionable, and Fashion Forward!

It can be a safety device, used as a snorkel, to breathe air while hiding in the water from predators.

It can be a temporary canteen holding enough water to sustain Glamour Hammer during long treks to inland dumpsters.

Worn daringly over one shoulder, when the wind is right, it can also be a wind instrument – making musical notes like a bagpipe. ♪♪♪ ♫♫♫

When stowing away under a pick-up truck for a quick ride, it can also protect Glamour Hammer from impact damage.

and who doesn’t love his “Mjolnir”

This little Thor of the Suburban Raccoons.

Practical and fashionable. Who knew?

Raccoons will do their thing and love it.

Mag appears to have taken over the whisk. I still want to know what’s going to happen with that perfectly good lava lamp.

Hi everyone. I haven’t been around having been rushed into hospital with a serious illness. From now on I’ll need dialysis for four hours three Timor a week. It looks like I’m going to be hear for some time but I finally fave my trusty iPad and con join in all the fun. BCN Rules,

First a whisk, now a plunger. Looks like Downstairs Man really dd throw away a Dalek!

Very curious about what “practical” uses a raccoon can have for a vaccuum hose, but I love the name Glamour Hammer. I have been having fun with Agnes and the raccoons, but I kind of want to see reactions from the cats in the studio. My prediction is that Lupin loves it and wants to create his own garbage outfits (to the Woman’s exasperation), Puck doesn’t like it but is trying to be supportive, Elvis doesn’t care, and Goldie isn’t watching because of her mixed feelings toward raccoons.

And hours of visual art entertainment if you drape it over your ferry little shoulders and let a ferret run through it.

Glamour Hammer is an awesome name!

I love fashionable AND practical… which usually means for women that something has pockets. Has anyone been able to answer why there are so many women’s pants that do not have pockets? I usually go with the men’s sweatpants or pj pants simply because they have pockets. I have to have somewhere to comfortably hold a pocket knife!

Boa, oh boa, that’s some chic accessory.

Steampunk Raccoons! I’m here for it.

Recent rumors of my demise have been exaggerated.

Can’t wait to see the assembly of all the recycled parts, airship? Giant Robot Raccoon? Trash Colossus? Takin’ all bets! OT Virus has run its course, and the fur beasts are back to their regular level of mucus production and appetite.

Today is the anniversary of another trip around the sun for me. And so far, this year is much happier than last year’s.

They’ve been training for the Apocalypse for countless generations.

And the vile raccoons want to figure out how they can weaponize “clothing” without it being obvious they weaponzied it.

OT: You’re never going to believe this

Hi Tog! Welcome home!

To Crazy Cat Momma: GoComics didn’t want me to reply in your ‘trip around the sun’ thread, so I’m here.
