Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for June 14, 2023

I suspect the Man wants to scrub Elvis about as much as Elvis wants to be scrubbed by the Man. Perhaps some kind person will order some falconry gloves for the Man.

Lupin you are the sly one. All one has to do is look at that expression on your face, and it is obvious that you are devious and love it. I think is called ‘cat and mouse game’ and Lupin is a pro at it.

OMC! How I just love Lupin’s devilishly smug face here. He’s taking a nice bubble bath of delight at seeing Elvis in this position.

Elvis got too close to the rotting meaqt.

And Elvis loses his dignity with garbage as I predicted. Lupin has to be pretty dang stealthy to keep that white coat clean.

Is that a meatball stuck to Elvis’ right ear?

You want ME to deliberately try to get Elvis wet? What did I do to deserve that?

This is censorship!!!

No, it’s because you got too close to the Orange peel and leaked egg fluid, Elvis.

I am reminded or Rescuing The World’s Most Annoying Cat on Youtube. Takes some effort to keep him out of the trash! And if you go watch it, turn on the subtitles, they only add to the fun.

Is that HISSSS covering up a naughty word? Such undignified language!

And Lupin’s right. He just needs to go invisible, like when he’s in the sink!

The Man’s epidermis, is severally endangered!

Elvis decked in a garbage crown scremaing about being “too close to the truth” makes my day. And Lupin and sneaky are two words I thought i’d hear in a non-sarcastic sentence.

It seems like Elvis is angrier that it’s not His Woman that’s bathing him.

I am reminded of the bit online about how to bathe a cat. One of the steps is: if you are a woman, sit down and have a good cry. If you are a man, sit down and have a good cry.

Way to go, Lupin!!!

OT, but NOT OT…is anyone else having problems with the ‘like’ button? It’s barely working for me and when it does, it takes forever to go through. Started last week. It’s annoying because I’d like to acknowledge that I find a lot of the comments fun, but can’t. Maybe it’s just my browser, but I’m asking.

Keep watching the trash. The Truth is in there.

Oh, Lupin, your expression in the last panel is priceless!

Oh, Hiss, No! – Another classic.

Looks like Elvis is going to get wet. Then again, certain other cats (Holmes) do the work for you. https://www.instagram.com/p/Ctc5XGlJEE1/

No need to. Cats are self-cleaning. Kinda like ovens.

At first I thought Elvis had some sort of funky hairdo in panel 2, but it is just trash. Lupin, meanwhile, is very suave, but I doubt even he could come out of the trash white as snow.

That last panel is Lupin perfection.

O T

The meatball and spaghetti make such a fine fascinator hat on Elvis. I wonder if this will become a trend with the British royal princesses.

Lupin? Sneaky? Lupin? Lupin “Five Cats” Lupin? Lupin the Tiny Horse?

Tell us another, go on.

Meanwhile, Back on the Nile

Elvis-Anum: Alright, I’ve got all the papyri I need. You can have at the rest, Ora Z.

Ora Z I’ll go and shred these to pieces.

Elvis: Now we have a pile of finely shredded papyrus. Wonder if there is a use for it.

Enter Sophititi

Soph: I’m making a sculpture that needs to be strong yet light. Do you have any material that would work?

Elvis: Right now all I have is a pile of papyrus dust.

Soph: That might work. I could use it to make papyrus maché

Elvis: If you need more, I’m sure everyone’s finished with today’s mail.

Soph: I just need someone to shred the papyrus. Know any volunteers?

Ora Z: .Me! Me!

Soph: Perfect. Let’s go back to the studio.

Oh good heavens, is this the start of a whole Garbage Gate Story?

Who will “Deep Orange Peel” turn out to be? When will they discover the 18 minutes of missing garbage disposal run time? Whose job is it to remove the evidence to the dumpster bin behind the Big Pink House on the Hill?

Fear not, the whole of the BCN team will drug through the muck and garbage to report this story. Film at eleven.

We are not supposed to throw out any food waste with our trash anymore. They give us a small food waste bin now that ends up dumped on the yard waste bin an hauled away. Im guessing the cats would luve that bin

Well, he knows to run to keep from hidin’

And he finds stealth so excitin’

And he loves a deep dive in squalor

But he’s not gonna let ’em catch him, no

Not gonna let ’em catch the blight marauder

- Robert Payne / Gregg Allman – Midnight Rider – The Allman Brothers Band

Lupin has not forgotten his namesake: Arsène Lupin, gentleman thief!

Just when Elvis was about to puts his paws and extract extraterrestrial evidence, he is stopped.

Reminds me of an old cartoon joke about how to clean your toilet bowl when in-laws are due to visit. … Only to be done with cartoon animals, NOT to be attempted IRL! (1) Squirt baby shampoo on cat, then (2) stuff kitty into the toilet, then (3) flush several times. (4) Be sure to stand clear when opening lid. In the cartoon, (5) in-laws are knocked backwards into muddy flower bed by wet cat-missile as they open front door.

Careful there, Elvis! – Now, with your food attire, you could be called by some as:

‘MEATHEAD’ !!! … :)

I want to start saying, “Oh, hiss no” in real life.

Elvis’s cat and will clean himself.

I want EXACTLY 13 likes in this comic. No more and no less.

Comment*

Invisibility is a big help for Lupin.

Darn it, People! He was so close to finding out the truth.

Elvis, the truth may make you free—but not of a bath.

Lupin truly believes he’s ultra-sneaky, and sometimes he is—when he’s stationary and by or in something white. But digging in the trash, or running, or other activity—he’s very noisy but thinks he’s silent.

The final panel is Yet Another One that would look great on a coffee mug!

OMC Lupin’s face! ><

OT: Flying tent at TK!

Love Lupin in panel 4!!

The last panel needs to be merchandised.

I predict “Rainy, with a chance of meatballs.”

I hope she has an ambulance on speed dial.

Ask Old Mag for cleanup help. We haven’t seen her boys in a while. (I do so love Homestyle!)

For those who follow it, a new Snow Sez has dropped – and it’s so sweet!
