OZ looks devastated. So glad she has Puck to cling to. And Iggy looks very sad as well. Poor kids. They are probably reliving their not-so-distant foray into the great outdoors.
Cheer up, guys! You were found and look where you ended up. With a loving family. Sophie will get returned to her loving family soon! Don’t give up hope!
We never had any success with those cat towers. The cats would check it out for a few minutes and then ignore it. Happened twice with different cats before we gave up.
Well it’s all yours now Tommy. Now that that selfish cat is gone. You is has to thanks them Alf aliens for that. But be carefuls now. Them steenky cat eating aliens may comes back for you too, plumpy one.
It was a dark and stormy night; the rain fells down in torrents—except at occasional intervals, and the moving of a UFO is wakes up the woods, rattling along the treetops, and fiercely agitating the scanty flame of the lamps in the caves that is struggles against the darkness and helpless cries of cats is fills the woods.
There stoods a old shack amidst them woods, the secret hideout of Alf aliens, which is appears to swallow the UFO inside the big secret hideout built inside by them steenky sneaky aliens. Inside the secret lair of steenky Alf aliens, down in basement is captured many cats they is abducts to be foods for their secret intergalactic meeting on earth.
Them pesky aliens very sneaky and steenky, of course, there aint no match for theirs steenkyness or sneakyness as they is goes undetected everywhere on the planet. But until now that is. For they not knows that amongst thems there is a mole. Yes. A MOLE.
Will them steenky sneaky aliens eats cat kebabs? Will them woodlands creatures be able to stops them and saves them hapless cats and beats them steenky aliens so bad they is never comes back? Or is all the woods doomed? Stays tuned for the next exciteeng episode of…The Strange Curious Case Of Missing Cats.
Thomios: Hi, Trev. We’re holding a Bon Voyage banquet in honor of the Japanese Delegation, and were wondering if the pizza trees were in bloom.
Trevor-Hotep: You’re in luck. The thin crust pizzas are ready for harvest, and I think some of the deep dish flowers are ready for picking as well. Of course, the cracker crust pizzas are always available.
Puckmosis: Great! Sue Chef is preparing toppings for us. Do you have any sauce plants to go with it?
Trevor-Hotep: Yep. There are tomato ready for picking, and some pesky pesto plants as well.
Beatrixia: Those pesto plants do have a bit of an attitude, don’t they?
Thomios: We have the makings of a great banquet. You can come, can’t you, Trev?
Trevor-Hotep: Wouldn’t miss it.
Puckmosis: Alright, let’s get picking!

the “new tower” strips begin on Jan 10, 2022. Unfortunately, it’s the day we lost Lupin, one of the worst days in BCN history. there are 2 pts to Georgia’s post about a third or halfway down. God bless you Lupin! and i can’t stop crying again.
This is just crazy coming back to the comic. It’s October 9th and I’ve just started catching up on all my comics.
On June 17th Hubert, my wonderful, beautiful, funny, loving, energetic, super curious, and also shy cat, escaped his carrier in our parking lot. It’s the one time of year he’s leaving his comfortable life and goes to the vet. It’s all over in less than an hour, but he doesn’t like it. So this time he panicked and managed to open the grille on the Savic Trotter 2 carrier. And away he was. It happened so fast that we didn’t have a chance.
We looked and we looked. We got humane traps, we searched everywhere, we talked to everyone, we put up flyers and handed them out, we did all we could! But we didn’t even know in which direction he had run, because there were no other witnesses to his escape than me, my girlfriend, and our friend with her car. He was gone.
Then, after less than two weeks, we suddenly saw him! It was on 29th of June. We were ecstatic! Now it was only a question about time …
And that time has come and passed. We haven’t seen him since. Many, many people contact us when they think they’ve seen him, but it’s never him.
Hilma, our orange nutcase, were originally found with Hubert. They’ve been together from they were just tiny kittens, and now he’s gone. His strategy when he’s afraid is to hide. And that’s what’s he’s done. If he even is alive.
And then I come back to this comic and it’s about Sophie being gone. It’s just unbearable.

I’ve been holdin’ out so long
I’ve been sleepin’ all alone
Lord, I miss you
I’ve been hanging on the perch
My life’s in such a lurch
I want to kiss you sometime
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Well, I’ve been haunted in my sleep
You’ve been starrin’ in my dreams
Lord, I miss you, child
I’ve been waitin’ in the hall
Been waitin’ on your call
Still I miss you
There are some friends of mine that say
“Hey, what’s the matter, man?
We’re gonna come around at twelve
With some Siamese Cats that’s just dyin’ to meet you
We’re gonna bring a case of cat nip
Hey, let’s go mess and fool around
You know, like we used to"
Aah aah aah aah aah
Aah aah aah aah aah
Aah aah aah aah
Aah aah aah aah aah
Aah aah aah aah aah
Aah aah aah aah
Oh everybody waits so long
Oh baby, why you wait so long?
Won’t you come on, come on
I’ve been searching in the Park
Looking’ after dark
People think I’m crazy
Stumbling on my feet
Shuffling through the street
Asking everyone I meet, “Have you seen my Sophie?"
Sometimes I want to say to, to myself
Sometimes I say
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
I won’t miss you, child
I guess I’m lying to myself
It’s just you and no one else
Lord, I won’t miss you, child
You’ve just been blottin’ out my mind
Foolin’ on my time
No, I won’t miss you, baby, yeah
Lord, I miss you child
Aah aah aah aah aah
Aah aah aah aah aah
Aah aah aah aah
Lord, I miss you, child
Aah aah aah aah aah
Aah aah aah aah aah
