Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for May 26, 2022

Ooh, I think I like this hair salon … Can I be next? I think I may have a sardine stuck behind my ear …

Look at it this way, Elvis. The faster the food is gone, the faster you stop being News.

Elvis, you’re not done until the stylist says you’re done!

Elvis is really well groomed now……Puck does such a great job!

Come on Puck, don’t lick a bald spot on him. He might never recover.

Love the (unused) grooming comb in Puck’s paw.

Sean Puckery ish on the schene.

What would you think if I my hair stank of tuna?

Or of salmon – would walk out on me?

Or lick me my ears and my head all along

And I’ll try not to get too crazy

Oh, I get neat with a little help from my friends

Mm, I get on fleet with a little help from my friends

Mm, away the dried meat from the little help from my friends

What do I do when my flaw is away?

Does it worry you to be on air?

How do I feed by the end of the day?

Are you sad because that sounds unfair?

No, I get loved with a little help from my friends

Mm, get bathed with a little help from my friends

Mm, with tongues rough and a little help from my friends

Do you need anybody?

I need somebody to bathe.

Could it be anybody?

I want just Puck – look above!

They remind me of my late, lamented Nimitz. Hr got on top of my recliner and groomed my hair, licking and gently nibbling my hair, especially after it was washed.

OT: waiting for orders

Ooo! He looks so goofy in the last panel! I love it!!!

This reminds me of when Grandpaw Mason used to lick the heads of his kittens and create new styles. I miss that old geezer.

Meanwhile, Back on the Nile

At the Cosmo Nursery

Diana: Here’s my bouquet of space time anemones, Uncle Trevor.

Trevor-Hotep: Let’s go find some safer flowers. Maybe Blossom-Neige can help.

Diana: Blossom-Neige, it’s good to see you!

Blossom-Neige: I’m happy to greet you, Diana.

Diana: Can you show me where there are some non magical flowers to make a bouquet?

Blossom-Neige: How about some Dilly Daisies? They come in all different colors.

Diana: Do you think they’ll mind?

Blossom-Neige: No problem. Just ask them.

Between licks, ’By the way, have you heard the latest clawsip? Well (Lick lick, comb comb) I heard it straight from a little birdie, on the grapevine!"

I love watching cats grooming each other. :D

At Grey Louser ~ Who the hell needs ya so buzz off, Bozo !

And cats can achieve their stylish looks without any salon products.

Friends don’t let friends’ meatheads go unlicked.

Pretty sure that that’s how the saying goes.

You’re a terrific groomer, Puck.

That last panel is so sweet! Puck is very thorough. He won’t stop until there’s not even a whiff of salmon!

I wish someone would groom me…someone…anyone…Robin? All I hear are crickets?

Does any strip encapsulate Puck better? Pucky, lover of food, helper of friends (and Prince of Bacon too)!

“Such an interesting Meezer, too.”

“My stars. If an interesting Meezer can’t have an interesting hairdo; then I don’t know what things are coming too!”

Thank you, Bugs Bunny! :-)

Sha doo be doo be doo

Whoa-oh-oh-oh

In the shtill of the night

Pucky licked you

With all his might

’Cause he loves

Loves food so

We know he’ll never

Let schmutz go

In the shtill of the night

doo bop doo wa wa

Whoa-oh-oh-oh

A little salmon goes a long way it seems!!!

Momcat, taking care of Dadcat. Using the universal cleaning solvent….momcat spit.

The Orb, one of two cat-related gentle and caring ‘places’ on the interwebs (the other being TinyKittens chat)—let’s keep it as it is and has been, world without end.

So let it be written. So let it be done.

Mmm … salmon-flavored cat hair.

‘SHTILL’ !! … JUST like that Lionel Richie song … (or maybe not!) … :)

Relax, Elvis. Mr. Puck is a professional. You’ll look MARVELOUS once he’s done.

Puck once again shows how much cats love to help.

Love the barber shop setting.

If Hissy (Her Ginger Majesty from my books) had been in the vicinity, Elvis wouldn’t have even known he got a bit of salmon on his head because he would have been instantly tackled and the bit of food hastily removed and licked to destruction before he even registered it was even there! ;p

A moment of silence for Elvis’s dignity
