Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for June 24, 2023

Lawn potato! LOL… gotta love it!

Tommy’s so happy to be able to say “I live in that house”. I’m so happy for him, too!

Lawn Potato HAS to be the best dig at a mole EVER and it’s an even deeper burn when given by such a cute, little, small cat.

‘Lawn Potato’! Nice one, Bea!

Who knew Bea could come up with such a sick burn?

After that sick burn, Paddington Mole should stop, drop and roll!

She’s almost eye to eye with a mole and giving him what for! 0ur sweet little Bea!!!!

Wow, that interview got out of hand real quick. If this escalates any faster, that pirate mole might find himself stuffed into an itty bitty lawn potato cannon and FOOMPH! it’s bye-bye little rude-ling!!

Teach then some manners, Beatrix. And then – make friends!

Lawn potato? Hshahahaha

Jean Lafitte mole is angry, perhaps the BCN team can find out why? Is it another blast from the past where the moles were disrespected? Were they ignored by the raccoons and opossum and thus gone rogue? Do they have a long lingering resentment toward the Big Pink House or others? Tommy and Beatrix may break the biggest story since Woodward and Bernstein!

Says the cat who just called a mole a “lawn potato”!! LOL!!

The problem is all inside your yard, it seemed to me

The answer is easy if you take it logically

I′d like to help you in your struggle to be free

There must be fifty ways to thieve our clover

She said, it’s really not my habit to intrude

Furthermore, I hope my meaning won′t be lost or misconstrued

But I’ll repeat myself at the risk of being crude

There must be fifty ways to leave your gopher

And to leave your mole fifty another

You just slip out the yard, pard

On tiptoes out of our lawn till dawn

You don’t need to be rude, dude

Just dig yourself free

He’s a bit of a molecontent.

Yeah! Keep being rude, and my little claws will make, Lawn French fries, out of you!

I think Baba, has taught her how to sass, very well!

Holy Moley! Why you pompous pesky little plump puppet-like illegally invading eevil encroachers. Gets off me lawns ya clowns!

“You mean you haven’t been paying rent the whole time? That’s it, we’re going to call lawn enforcement!”

It seems Beatrix is a match for Namoleon. The furce is strong with this one.

And don’t mess with Bea’s little cake, either!!

OT

You go, Bea-Bea! You tell that lawn potato!

Everything fair in lawn and war eh.

Genral Lawn Potato it is

Lawn potatoes…I love it!

“Lawn potato” makes my day, possibly my whole week! How apt, and what an awesomely cute insult.

“Lawn potato”, I love it!

The moles actually raise a good point. Bea, Tommy is the diplomatic one. You have the funny insults, but I don’t think that will get the job done in this case.

Meanwhile, Back on the Nile

Beaver Lee Cleary: After the library closes, I’ll get Kara and Vann to see if they can take to the Cosmo Nursery.

Vi: Sounds good. Bill, are you with us?

Bill Platypus: Sure. Count me in.

Sometime Later

Bev: Thanks for taking us to the Cosmo Nursery, guy and gal.

Kara: No problem. Glad to do it.

Vann: I like to see what new veggies Trevor-Hotep ha0

Sometime Later, at the Cosmo Nursery

Trevor-Hotep: Glad to see you again, Ms Bev. And it’s always a pleasure to greet one of the Royal Procurers.

Vi: Trev, I’d like to introduce to you Mr. Bill Platypus.

Bill: G’day, mate. Pleased to meet you.

Trevor: Can I interest you in some lunch? I know veggies aren’t quite your think, Bill. But I do have some shellfish for you.

Bill: Much obliged, Trev.

Vi: We do have a reason for this visit, Trevor. With summertime here we’d like to serve special summer vegetables. We were hoping you’d have some new ones.

Trev: As a matter of fact, I have been working on a special variety of potatoes. I’ve been think especially of Puckmosis and his beloved potato salad.

Bev: That would be perfect. And to transport them, we were thinking of having a competition between the groundhog’s and the beaver’s guild.

Trev: I think that’s doable. Later this summer the summer fruits will be available. We could have a second round, if you like.

Vi: Oh, that would be great. Tell me about the new variety of potatoes.

Trev: Well, they are round in shape. The moles like to play with them.

Vi: I didn’t think they’d be too thrilled with round potatoes.

Live and let live, be and let be

Hear and let hear, see and let see

Sing and let sing, dance and let dance

Call me a lawn tater, but I am not!

So what, so what, so what

Dig and let dig, right or not quite

Love and let love, bite and let bite

Live and let live, and remember this line

Your business is your business

And my business is mine

I like how Bea is still behind Tommy in the second panel, and then… jumps into the center of the action in the last panel. Doesn’t take much to get her all riled up!

Lawn potato?! I love it!

Everyone knew of the Lawn Potato’s super secret hideout because there was a mole in his group

The mole has a valid point there.

Lawn potato???Brilliant!

OFF TOPIC:

The kittens are back in the living room and wandering around. Their names are: Loki (tuxedo male – has a home), Marshmallow (tuxedo female – has a home), Hagrid (black with a white tummy – tentatively named and needs a home) and Thor (black male with just a touch of white – I’m keeping him).

Smudge and Mouse are still not reconciled to having to stay inside unless they are on a leash, as they are refusing to wear harnesses.

You tell him, Beatrix. Way to go, girl!

Wonderful! Except now we have to wait until Monday to find out what the Lawn Potatoes do next!

I really think they live UNDER the yard with tunnels to prove it. LOL

Where else would a potato be, but in the ground? :)

OT

Just wanted to send out some love and hugs to piwismom, since Denny found out last week that she recently came home from the hospital. You are in my heart daily, take care and hope to hear from you when you are up to it.

Bea just went up another notch on the “love that kitten” scale (and she’d already pegged the scale)!

Speak truth to power, Beatrix!

Love how Beatrix is standing up for Tommy. She’s a great friend.

“Lawn potato” … maybe his given name is “Spud” —Spud Talpidus.

OT: Tiny miracle at TK

“lawn potato” :-) <3

And calling someone “lawn potato” is NOT rude, Beatrix??

“Lawn Potato.” Now that’s comedy!

Beatrix stands up for decorum.

OT

Found out today a therapy dog friend of mine has been diagnosed with large cell lymphoma. He’s somewhat stable now but will have to go through the workups before treatment which will, hopefully, buy some time. His owner is having a tough time. Found out, unlike humans, dogs don’t generally survive lymphomas. I’ve placed this in the hands of the Almighty.

Lawn potato?? LOVE it!!!

Good for Bea! Tell off those rude gits.

OT: Gouda gnus

Lawn potato?? ROFL, Beatrix! And I am so stealing that.
