Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for April 25, 2023

Cereal milk (even from boring, healthy cereal), is the best! Ask any cat!

I think Sophie’s sketches are going to be as loved & anticipated as Puck’s charts!!!

Tabitha gets A star portrait and the praise she deserves. Hopefully her purritzer prize winner will air on bcn too.

The best cereal milk has to be the fruit loops and others with a variety of colors! Rainbow sweetie milk!

Chocolate milk wasn’t offered at breakfast at the grade school where I taught, so the kids would get Cocoa Puffs and use them to turn their white milk into chocolate milk.

Yes! Tabitha gets a story to shine! I move for more illustrated minutes. Can I get a second? All in favor?

Cereal milk is the best kind of milk cant deny that

It takes me several moves to get a bowl and spoon to the table, fill the bowl with cereal, and then add milk and return the milk to the refrigerator. I have to cover the bowl so that Nigel doesn’t help himself before I’ve had my turn.

Followed by an in-depth piece on bacon by Pucky! Bacon, Oh foul temptress!

Which language(s) will Tabitha report in? Will we finally learn what her other two are, besides Spanish and English?

Some maniacal food genius actually makes, bottles, and sells Cereal Milk. She even published a recipe for it.

I wonder if the picture will be found in Elvis’ possession at some point?

My Trouble & Mischief completely concur with Tabitha’s assertion that cereal milk is indeed the “best milk in the world”! ♡〜٩( ╹▿╹ )۶〜♡ They love “Froot Loop” milk the bestest!

Sophie has come out of her shell to be an important part of the group. She’s blossoming.

For the lazy, or impatient among us……. they now make cereal flavored milk. Many of the top, sugary cereals have their own flavored milk now. To that I add, with yesterday in mind, HUZZAH!

Our first cat, Carmella, would hook her claw over the rim of the cereal bowl and try and pull it out of my hand to get at the cereal milk. If we put milk in a saucer for her, she didn’t want it.

Cereal was Granola (just reporting the facts)

Cereal milk is awesome, yes. Especially if you’ve had something like Cocoa Pebbles.

Sophie is a great artist! Bea is no slouch, either.

I can’t drink milk anymore and Loaner Cat isn’t interested in my OatMilk. Nine month old granddaughter however loves the OatMilk from my Tony Tigers though! I can do cooked/baked milk products but not “raw/uncooked” which even my GI doc finds very odd but interesting. I can eat some cheeses raw, but that’s about it. The joys of growing old…

Off Topic: I finished part 3 of my breaking cat news retrospective! Link here! I cover the beatrix and wicket arcs and say good bye to the original web runhttps://www.tumblr.com/popculturebuffet/715566294727000064

What’s next week’s story? “Cereal milk vs water from a glass?”

Ohhhh. Water from a glass!

This story will appeal to the feline AND to the human audience – cereal milk. Who doesn’t love it?

Every morning if I have cereal, Jasmine will come over and stare at me while I eat expecting her morning licks of the left-over cereal milk. She’s totally in agreement with Tabitha.

Some cats sip tea

Some cats, coffee

She thinks that’s ok

If she can’t get her story edits

She’ll just walk away

She can brag ’cause they can see

She caught the red dot light (that’s right)

And she knows the bowl with the cold fresh milk

Always taste just right

’Cause we are living in a milk cereal world

And she’s a milk cereal girl

You know that we are living in a milk cereal world

And she’s a milk cereal girl

Meanwhile, Back on the Nile

The story of Ms Mu-fet

Little Ms Mu-Fet

Sat on a tuffet.

Mu-Fet: That’s a low seat, like an ottoman for those of you wondering. Or it may be a grassy knoll.

Narrator: Now to continue:

Eating her curds and whey

Along came a spider

And sat down beside her

Mu-Fet: Arachna! Long time no see!

Ari: Good to see you, too! What’s that you’re eating?

Mu-Fet: Oh, I’m trying a batch of yogurt. I’m trying to determine the best milk for making cheese and other dairy.

Ari: That’s right! You got a research position at Punn State.

Mu-Fet: And Violet-Ifa and the ladies helped me obtain different types of milk.

Ari: What are you going with all your dairy products?

Mu-Met: Oh I think the Procurers will know what to do.

Oh no. Now Tabitha will be even more up herself.

Great drawing of Tabitha. I might have to flip over to Gato Noticias for that report, as long as it isn’t on at the same time as Our IX Lives.

I much prefer cereal milk to serial killers.

Jinx, my childhood black cat, used to sit on the kitchen table staring at my cereal bowl until I was finished and it was his turn. We called it “vulturing”. It’s been almost 40 years but I miss that darn cat and his antics.

Those are pretty good crayon drawings.

Georgia uses the Oxford or serial comma! Hurray!

Sophie, you are a very gifted artist. That portrait of Tabitha is the best!

I guess my cat’s not the only one.

Well, obviously, cereal milk has picked up added flavor from whatever cereal it has been poured into, so of course its going to taste better than normal milk straight from the source.

Sophie should fill in for Georgia. No better combo than ceral and bacon

It’s nice to see the team getting back to reporting again.

Ladybug Day 6: She is continuing to improve with better mobility in her hind legs. She’s also apparently regained control of her bladder, to some extent, in that she is no longer dribbling much and manages to use the box, even if only for small ‘deposits’. Still no use of or feeling in her tail.

One really cool thing is when I went to my PT appointment yesterday, a specialist in musculo-skeletal massage, I jokingly asked if he could help an animal with a herniated disc and partial paralysis. To my surprise he said, ‘yes, but not officially’. So I took her to see him (“Oh no, not more car rides!!!”) and he has able to show me a simple, safe stretch I could do for her to help relieve stress on the disc. She seemed to like the stretch and appears to have improved after just a few minutes.

Either those stars are an expression of Tabitha’s pride, or that is some powerful cereal.

Here’s how to eat cereal. Fill mug with cereal. Fill with milk. Eat cereal, oops, leftover milk, add cereal. Oops, dry cereal, add milk. Repeat till box of cereal is gone. Drink the cereal milk.

My mom’s cat loves milk! When I ask her, Do you want some milk? She’ll perk up, and her meow sounds like she’s trying to say it! Meelp Meelp!

Let’s give Sophie a round of appaws for her terrific sketch!

We don’t let our cats have much milk, as it upsets their stomachs. Yogurt, on the other hand, is eagerly accepted.

And, of course, everyone here knows that adult cats are lactose intolerant and really should not be drinking milk, right? It’s okay for kittens, but once they’ve been weaned, they can no longer process it because of a lack of lactase.

OT TK’s Scotia

OT: RIP, Harry Belafonte, who truly was one of the “good guys” in so many ways.

Tabitha is glowing! Sophie is an amazing artist.

In South Korea, you could buy a box of Chex cereal flavored with green onions! That is one bowl of cereal milk not fit for drinking, but as a soup base!

Leave it to Tabitha to ask the really hard-hitting reporting questions. As befits one who has caught the red dot.

Cereal milk, a cat favorite for generations.

Thought that was Goldie until I read the mic.

Because the only other place to get blue milk is Ahch-to, and it’s too easy to get distracted by adorable Porgs if you go there for it.

Adorable!
