Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for September 14, 2024

Oh, snap! Time for a nap…

Toebeans! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! Crime committing toebeans at that!

Truly a diabolical genius in the making.

After naptime.

…more importantly, who let Ora Zella play Clue??? And how many players did she attack before the game was called on account of tortie?

Such an adorable criminal. I thought for sure she was going to say candlestick, It’s ALWAYS with the candlestick. Or at least it should be. And Papa Pucky is right. It IS naptime.

What do you suppose the red thing is in OZ’s paws in panel 4?

OZ has been watching someone playing Clue, I see… or do you call it Cluedo? I have a PC version of the game, and whenever it turns out that my avatar is the guilty party, it comes up with a message that I am reminded of here — “I see you’ve turned yourself in. Very honorable.”

OZ just wanted to be a Junior detective so she could solve her own case.

The red ball with a black thing sticking out of it looks like a cherry bomb. The white fluff, no idea.

It would be one of the first places I’d look. The Woman needs to work on her hunting skills.

The woman must be slipping. Under the couch would have been the first place I would have looked! Will Elvis be rewarded for finding it and batting it back out from under the couch, or will he get the blame for putting it there in the first place?

“I didn’t stand a chance against me!”

What! No “Yay for GC getting going?”

Caution, Elvis, don’t get stuck under the Big Red Couch!

And it looks like a smoke bomb is in action.

‘Watson’ Puck is not happy…

Time for a cat nap eh.

Ha! I remember the time we ran the broom handle under the stove and found what must have been about 10 cat toys.

Why am I not surprised?

As a ‘Cats’ fan (musical, not movie) I would have appreciated if Puck had said ‘Naptime, Macavity’.

THE PAW OF JUSTICE!

Ha! So many people called this! She is the cutest lil’ criminal, isn’t she!

In this case, I think “Nap time” is a euphemism for “Time Out.” And while you’re at it, Pucky, confiscate all incendiary devices. Please.

Is Ora Zella a criminal mastermind? I didn’t see that coming.

Earlier in the story arc I was thinking to myself isn’t OZ more Moriarity than Holmes? but thought maybe that was mean-spirited. However, now that Uncle Puck came to the same conclusion …

Talk about a plot twist! I thought for sure the butler did it. ;)

It would be a lot easier (and kinder) for tiny Ora Zella to retrieve the remote under the couch than ol’ blue eyes ♡

Puuuuurrrfect mystery!

Ora Zella, the criminal mastermind. I wonder if our resident smol cat is like that in real life.

Well I’ll be darned, I had this right from the beginning! Maybe I should be a junior detective. Naw, I’m ac few decades too old for that.

Some cats bug her, some cats hug her

She thinks that’s okay

If they don’t let her light her smoke bombs

She just finds a way

They can beg and they can plead

But they’ll soon see the light (that’s right)

’Cause when she does something rash

It always feels so right

’Cause we are living in a trivial world

And she is a spontaneous girl

You know that we are living in a rules-based world

But she’s an undeterred girl

Things may come, and things may go

And that’s no mystery

Cats have smacked our stuff like that

All through history

You know that we are living in a conventional world

But she’s an unconventional girl

we are living in a serious world

And she is one hysterical girl

Living with cute OZ girl (ah)

Living in Ora Zella’s world

So hysterical, girl

“It’s me. Hi. I’m the culprit, it’s me.”

Called it. Ora Zella is such a scamp. Still, Elvis might as well check for other lost items as long as he’s under the couch.

OT – birthday “surprise”

Panel 2 was a laugh!

It would be fun to see a Big Pink House version of Clue. The suspects would feature Puck, Elvis, Lupin, Goldie, and OZ (Iggy’s too nice to kill anyone.) The rooms are self-evident, and the victim could be either Buzzy Mouse, or a houseplant. As for weapons … hm … hairballs come to mind. And OZ’s chainsaw. Would a bag of kebble be lethal? Ugh.

OT: Redecorating, hopefully.

two more classic lines! “I’m a master of crime!” and “naptime, Moriarty.”

To all those who called it that Ora Zella was the culprit:

APPLAUSE!!!

That’s adorable perlock holmes and clue! ❤️

Okay, I was right, it was under the couch. “Naptime, Moriarty.” Kittens, they keep you on your paws, that’s for sure.

with the paw? you mean with the lead pipe .. er, foot!

Somehow, I knew that … and I know I’m not alone.

She may be Meowarity.

I’m a little surprised that the humans failed to look under the couch. It’s not like cats are a new feature, e. g. Lupin.

YAY toebeans Squeeeee. Attached to the guilty paw, too. ☺♥

OZ will probably get suspended again. And she’ll love it!

what is the Orb? I have seen it mentioned, but need an explanation

I lost my response to my post. Seems like when I try to respond to a post, I’m deleted and restarted without the post response. Is this something new? Or is it a way of not letting me respond to a post?

“Nah, I’m gonna crime.” Hee hee.

Ah yes, just like the firefighters who set fires so they can put them out. Ora Zella, a criminal in the making.
