Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for September 18, 2023

Goldie, pretty much summing up how I think we all feel. Sign, sign, anywhere we’d sign. Anything to rid us of these moles and pesky owl!

Cute PJs, Goldie. You might even say they’re the cat’s pajamas.

Oh, I don’t know . . . let me think about it for a bit-where-do-I-sign?

Sorry, did you want to twist my arm a bit, first?

Goldie, I appreciate your enthusiasm. But remember, you should always read the fine print before signing.

Smart of Burt to make direct contact instead of risking having electronic communication intercepted. Since there are now 10 cats living in the big pink house (ok 8 cats and two kittens) along with that’s a big addition to the colander militia. Does Burt know about the 5 ghost cats and ghost mouse in the house?

Goldie is probably the easiest to convince. Then OZ. "Would you like to . . . " “YES!”

Don’t rush it, Goldie. Maybe the moles can make a better offer.

Oooh bring it on! Now it’s serious!

Owl just wait and sees when do the battle is begin.

The last panel is an excellent reference for those who tend to get Burt and Goldie mixed up. (I have the Dec 6, 2018 Robber Mice mug shot strip saved because I’m always mixing up Agnes and Violet.)♥

She said "Cats in the Big Pink House, so we can expect all of them Goldie, Puck, Lupin, Elvis, Tommy, Sir Figaro, Tabitha and Sophie!!

Can I hire them to get the moles out of MY yard?

Burt knows the words to sell the subject.

Goldie is so done.

I really hope this is going to be a nighttime ops, because trying to picture all the cats from the BPH in the yard, and the ensuing chaos as their People rush around in a panic trying to round them up … yeesh …

OT: My Mischief died

What’s in Baba’s hand?

Where’s Louie? I think we have everyone else.

Sign on the dotted line, Goldie.

Or is it a pawprint on the iPaw?

Puck is a pacifist isn’’t he? He might sit this out

Meanwhile, Back on the Nile

Beatrixia: We just had the first game of the Professional Lawn Potato League. The Bangers and Mash edged out the Pomme Frites by a score of 4-3 in overtime.

Tabith-Isis: I’m writing up the article in the Daily Scroll as we speak.

Bea: Did any of the potatoes go missing?

Tabs: No, Ora Z was busy with the halftime show. She and Mallets Towards None provided the accompaniment for Lupinium’s routine.

Puckmosis: I hear the Owl Temple is interested in sponsoring a team.

Tabs: Yes it looks like Lawn Potato is taking off. Speaking of which, INCOMING!

Ora Z: It’s me, Little O, you know! And I just figured out the potato launcher.

And now, more answers to the question-’How’d you like to get the moles, out of the yard?’ YES! Is yesterday, good? Can I help pack their bags? Is a, Lawn Potato Cannon, available?

I am hoping someone will hit the head mole in the head and he will return to his previous none-war policies

Yup. It’s going to take some real persuasion to get the BPH crews to sign on! The moles made Tommy sad!

I googled Cat’s Pajamas and the best explanation is on >

Oh goody, now we will have embedded reports from the Battle Front.

I put the website (>

Bring it on, moles!

“Well, just give me a moment to considYES.”

You had them at “How’d.”

It’s a rainy say AND a Monday. Two strikes and I’m not even up and about yet.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend!

They can definitely count on the BCN crew for support.

I just realized something. Obviously Tommy has a way in and out of the BPH. So does Goldie (“this house is like a big piece of Swiss cheese”). But, if Goldie recruits the rest of the BPH gang, does that mean Goldie shows them her way out? Just think of the possible adventures (and misadventures) awaiting if that is the case.

Written by Paul Williams and Roger Nichols, Performed by the Carpenters: Rainy Days and Mondays

Looking in the sky and seeing clouds

Gray and dreary with no gap

Feeling like I oughta nap,

Hanging around

Kibble does not abound

Rainy days and Mondays always get me down!

…….

What I feel is doldrums, nothing more

Look out my window tree,

Nothing really there to see

Walking around

Nothing of interest is found

Rainy days and Mondays always get me down!

…….

Funny how it seems I find the Orb friends always there

Find all the People there who love me!

No matter what I know my Orb friends always care!

Run to all the ones who love me!

…….

What I feel is what I’ve felt before

No need to fret or groan

It is gonna pass, I know

Hanging around, knowing love still abounds, just

Rainy days and Mondays always get me down!

I still think that Burt and Goldie are cousins or closer, they look so similar in coloring, ears, etc.

Nope, not much convincing at all!

Burt and Goldie are face to face! I’ve waited for this day. And now the moles are going down!

OT: Just a little fun note to report on the cats. Yesterday, I did some tomato sauce canning. And I had the labels sitting on the island and turned around and there was Katie. She somehow managed to get one label pried up and was licking the glue. I laughed myself silly at that girl.

Looks like the makings of an alliance.

You’d think they’d be so ready to join up, the uniforms would already be hanging in the Magic Closet.

Goldie’s crossed arms and angry eyebrows as she says, “Where do we sign?” Uhh. [Steps back and inches toward the door.]

The look on Goldie’s face!!……………………….

Yes! All they really need to is deal with the dain-bramaged mole leader.

Oh my goodness that last panel adorable!
