Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for April 16, 2021

I will have to show this one to my mom. Her Pippin runs away from treats (he had to be medicated recently, and now thinks treats = trap) but actively hunts down and eats plastic bags, given the chance.

oh lupin, you silly little cat who’s about to get indigestion

“Why?” When it comes to Lupin, that’s the ultimate rhetorical question.

Will the Woman never learn? No extra fancy expensive cat treats will ever take the place of ham and/or bacon!

A cupcake with a goldfish cracker? It looks good to me.

Wow, is this because he doesn’t know why he does it? I think that quote was from the “Someone has paint of their paws” strip.

Cats will turn down yummy kitty treats, but they will eat a bug.

Why should a Cat eat a treat that doesn’t smell like every treat they usually get? IT COULD BE POISON!

I’ve got a cat that would rather eat the bag than the treats. I can’t leave it anywhere where he can reach, including in the cupboards. Little weasel has learned to open the cabinets in my new house.

I think he needs more fiber in his diet.

It’s a matter of principle!

Lupin looks to be drunk on paper.

I see that Puck is making sure his tie doesn’t get contaminated by that dodgy cat treat.

Cats: Meow meow meow… where’s breakfast?Me: Got a treat today guys, your regular tinned food was sold out but this stuff looked fantastic.(Beats tin with spoon to get them excited).Cats: What’s this slop? This is a joke isn’t it? Where’s the real food?Me: Look, it’s great, it was more expensive than the regular tins, try it, you’ll love it.Cats: Give it to the dumb dog, he eats anything.Cats: Hey, where are you going? Come back and feed us, you can run but you can never hide. Me: (Cranky now). Eat the dried food then, bye.Cats: (In hot pursuit) Meow meow meow.

Naughty boy!

ROTFL!! Lupin, you made my day! He reminds me of Wakko Warner from the cartoon Animaniacs—he’d eat ANYTHING: https://youtu.be/JLTzHRQRhd4?t=222

RSoRTBs! Twice! (Maybe not so Rare)

Why? Because Lupin, that’s why. You should know that by now!

Love Lupin’s toebeans! And his one fang with um extra-special expression! 8D

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMC! Lupin’s expression in panel 4! I can’t even…… And the Woman’s too….. Georgia is a master of expression with minimal lines.

See also Rose is Rose today for a priceless series of cat expressions.

It doesn’t look like that nasty orange quinoa stuff but then better safe than sorry, right Puck?

“Lemme see you eat them, hyooman. If it ain’t good enough for you, it couldn’t be good enough for cats.”

You know I’ve always loved treats

You know I always will

Will I wait a lonely lifetime

For treats that don’t taste like swill

For when you ever buy treats

Be sure to skip this shame

For that’s what really matters

I will always feel the same

Hate them forever and forever

Hate them with all my heart

Hate them whenever we’re together

Hate them when we’re apart

And when at last you find treats

Whose essence fills the air

Shake the bag so I can hear it

Make sure Lupin doesn’t tear it

For the treats you give endear you to me

Oh, you know they will

They will

(John Lennon / Paul McCartney – I Will)

Hi all,I ran into piwismom on another strip and I thought I should just stop in to say hello to all of you loverly commenters :-)

Yes, I have been quiet and yes, it is the C word.

It’s all good, though. We knew it was coming, just not when.I have a good life and BCN and GoComics commenters always make me smile. Keep it up!

Enjoy those Super Expensive Cat Treats y’all!

xo

Goldie is truly getting over any food insecurity that she had before joining the Big Pink Household. Either that or this “extra fancy expensive” cat treat is absolutely disgusting. Ack THPPFFT!

Cat logic – Ignore the brand new, plush, cat bed from Amazon…play in the box it came in.

Cat logic – By pass the pieces of fresh shrimp offered…eat some of the dog’s food.

Cat logic – Walk into the bathroom and touch your paw to the freshly painted wall and then run out of the room with blue toe-beans (actually happened).

I have one that chews plastics as well. My foam roller has fang marks all around the edges at each end.

Hey, if anyone wants to help develop Breaking Cat News: Cats of Adventure, email me at lim95.yt@gmail.com. I need a sprite artist and possibly a musician, but that one is not required.

Back to the ol’ drawing board, Woman!

Our Yoshi is afraid of all bags.

Lupin looks stoned in the last panel.

Meanwhile, Back on the Nile

Lupinium: Hi, Thomios! Got any Snacky-Snack treats?

Thomios: You’re in luck. The locusts had a plague yesterday, and Arachna and her spider friends are bringing a fresh batch today.

Lupinium: Ooh, I hope they have some bacon and ham snacks!

Thomios: I’m sure they will. And try to remember not to eat the wrappers.

Lupinium: But who has time to unwrap Snacky-Snacks? They’re so good.

Enter Elvis-Anum

Elvis-Anum: I heard Arachna is bringing a new batch of Snacky-Snacks.

Thomios: That’s right.

Elvis-Anum: Are they New and Improved?

*Thomios: * Perish the thought. You know what happens when someone tries to New and Improve something!

Elvis-Anum: What a relief!

Lupin can be cute, but also a eating-wrapper-lover!

Georgia posted this picture, where’s Lupin?

I understand why the Woman brings them exciting and special cat treats, but the Man would just feed them Spaghetti-Os . . . because he loves them (the cats). =)

SAME! This just happened a couple of months ago!!!

I have a leather purse about the size of a small cat. Because it smells like me (and leather), our cats have always loved it and even cats who don’t much like each other will curl up on opposite sides of it. “Purse Cat” must now spend all day on the couch, mediating disputes. All well and good but our new kitten, Artemis, has decided she must eat it. Strap, zipper pulls – it’s all fair game. Sigh.

Hope springs eternal…and all that!

I’m back after a few days without wi fi connection.Finally got guest connection at extended care facility where I’ll be for the next couple weeks. I have a PIC line in for IV antibiotic and special wound care for broken open large callus on right heel…..good times….The comic has been hilarious in last few days!

Because Lupin. He doesn’t know why he does these things, so why should you?

Never buy your cats fancy extra expensive anything!

A cupcake with a decorative goldfish on top. Brilliant.

I bet Puck ate both the goldfish and the wrapper.

Woman, you made me do it.

I LOL’d.I showed it to The Woman.She LOL’d.Sparrowbane and the Tigress Are Not Amused.

More flavor.

Umm, because they were there?

CUT!!! That’s a wrap…

Lupin looks to have a self-satisfied evil grin in answer to the Woman’s question.

Answer : They are cats.

Cats gonna cat.

Do you really need to ask, Woman?

Because, CAT!

I had a beautiful tortoise-hair cat, named precious. She came to us out of a Florida thunderstorm(Fierce howling winds, lighting crawling across the sky, raindrops the size of golf balls. Those who lived here know that is not hyperbole). She loved, off all things, the tube from paper towels! She actually played fetch with them! She also loved boxes, especially ones with flaps still in place she could pull shut. She would occasionally jump straight up out of one, freaking out whoever happened to be walking by. She was with me for almost twenty years.

The more expensive the treat, the less likely they are to eat it.

Lupin: because it’s there.
