Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for January 23, 2020

Oh no! The girl has it! Lupin sure look more annoyed than grateful for being saved.

Elvis wouldn’t be worried about his suit at a time like this. Quick, somebody, save the girl! Goldie, this is your chance to be a hero!

What Lupin does, the Girl must copy.

It took me a second to get “Oh, crickets!” – “I thought it was a spider…” but now that I’m there, I’m laughing my head off. Delightful!

This is why you shouldn’t let hideous little things like that spider lying around, woman. When will you ever learn!

We need Elvis’s intelligent commentary on this one. Where is he when we need him?

We could start a little betting pool on who will snatch the North American Plastic Spider from the gaping maw of the Girl … Will it be the Woman? or Puck? maybe even Elvis? I got five Nom Nom Spider treats on Goldie! ;)

That’s just not Cricket!!!

Lupin drinking out of a glass cracks me up.

Is The Girl going to eat the ring, or just a real spider. If the former, she’s doomed.

The Girl may be an opera singer when she grows up. I’ve noticed that many top opera singers have larger than normal mouths.

Oh my God – the tongue on The Other Toddler. AAAGGGHHH!

Well, I was originally going to make the cats = toddlers comparison in the last strip. Thank you for proving my point, Second Toddler.

And in other news, OH CRICKETS amuses me a lot more than it should. That probably means I need sleep.

Crickets? Watch your language, Woman! There are people kittens present!

Purrsha: I don’t want to sleep near your head, no way no how, no nuh uhs!! Me: (turns box fan on towards his face)Purrsha: OMC (CAT)!!! THIS IS THE BEST SPOT EVER!!!!!

Woo hoo! I’m back as myself!!!

Girl, drop that thingie RIGHT NOW!!! Elvis, where are you? Your special Girl needs protection!

Drinking water from People glasses is so much better than from the water bowl.

“La! La! La La La La Laaaaaaa!”

Eat it, People Kitten, eat it!

Lupin’s new jingle – “Even People Kittens love Nom Nom Kitty Spider Treats.”

“Hey, watch the suit” Their clothes are real!

Yup, no doubt that Lupin is the Girl’s spirit animal. Sorry Elvis

“Oh Crickets!”

Such language, and in a family friendly strip too. There are baby fur-balls that are learning to read on this strip.

That’s right, watch the suit. You are mauling me. LOL.

Lupin’s angry face in panel 1

Nice hand-off, Woman. Now, pounce!

Oh Boy! It’s Buddy Holly and the Crickets

All my life I’ve been awaitin’

A spider treat, no hesitatin’

Oh, Cat! A ring for me,

Oh, Cat! A tasty treat,

That I was meant to eat!

…….

All my food, all my kibble,

These are thing that I like to nibble,

Oh, Cat! My heart sings,

Oh, Cat, now a spider ring,

That I was meant to eat!

…….

The woman sees me, I must hurry,

I think she does too much worry,

Eating a ring she won’t let me do,

Now the Girl’s gonna try it too!

…….

All my food, all my kibble,

These are thing that I like to nibble,

Oh, Cat! My heart sings,

Oh, Cat, now a spider ring,

That I was meant to eat!

Georgia posted some cool pictures on Instagram of Elvis next to one of the girl’s dolls:

Now that I have two kittens in the house I have realized how unkitten proof my house really is. Maxie was 18 and it had been a while since she really got into things.

Panel 1 – the perfect example of outraged felinity.

Panel 2 – I’m ignoring you.

Panel 3 – What? Why aren’t you paying total attention to me anymore?

The Girl must be saved immediately!

Lupin is annoyed at being thwarted, but will drink from his glass of water anyway. And what is “OH CRICKETS”? Not familiar with that slang.

Happy Pie Day!

No, it’s not π day. That’s next month.

Suit? It’s a T-shirt and jeans. Does this mean I can start calling my T-shirt and jeans a suit too? That’d be nice, tell people i’m not dressed casually or less than casually, I’m dressed for buisness.

Small children and cats. It’s hard to tell them apart some time.

OT: Diego and Lenore

Watch the suit. They don’t grow on trees you know.

The worst thing is they don’t show up on X-rays.

And now it’s time for the Across the Room Mommy Sprint. Go Woman, go!

I’m thinking spider rings shouldn’t be allowed in the household anymore

“Oh, Crickets!” made me think of the “Happy Hollister” series of books for kids, back in the dark ages.

Anyone else?

I love how Lupin’s holding a glass of water!
