Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for August 02, 2021

This apparently is shortly after yesterday’s Elvis 5 AM routine.

Well, Elvis, if you want to know what’s going on, you should have been watching the archives last night too!

Okay, so what were Puck, Burt, and Beatrix up to last night that Lupin and Elvis weren’t invited to?♥

Whole lotta ZZZZZs going around.

They were watching tapes of a certain July bug and young Mouse! All night long!

Elvis being oblivious to reality doesn’t surprise me one bit, but Lupin on the other paw . . . shocking! ;p

Methinks Elvis is the perfect cat to spend his day writing said policy. (Said with love by someone who does write policies!)

I am sure the toe bean aficionados will lock in on Beatrix’ multiple beans.

Long weekend?

BOCH! Back of Cat Head alert!

Owl just say they was awake all night.

Looks like Puck forgot to tell Elvis and Lupin he was heading out for a video party. Which might be just as well, or the headline would be Local Cat Is Out Until HOW LATE?! And Making Us Wait Up For Him.

On another note, the scrawl has me giggling SO much and wishing Mom wasn’t sleeping right now. I wanna laugh, dangit!

Pucky’s eye mask! I’ve seen cats wrap their tails over their eyes while napping. I wonder how well that does at keeping out light?

HR, shouldn’t it be FR?

I wonder if some cats watched videos under the influence of nip until the wee hours.

Elvis, think yourself lucky that Lupin is on duty as well. You don’t have to do it all by yourself.

Well, this is what happens when you watch videos all night.

When a ,Cat Binge party, goes astray…wood gets sawed, and toe beans are on full display…story at um…whenever our tech guy wakes up!

Ha ha ha! I just noticed that Burt fell asleep on the letter, T! Ha ha ha ha hah!!

Poor Burt. He must’ve missed his morning TTTTTTT…

Burt is officially my spirit cat, LOL.

Last panel ••••••• Under cat chin alert. That’s cute.

I wonder what Baba will have to say about Burt’s falling asleep on the job? As a former reported, she knows the importance of the guy at the control panel.

Puck has an alarm clock??

Hmm, Elvis kind of reminds me a bit of Lou Grant from “The Mary Tyler Moore Show”. Is Elvis the de facto “Mews Director” of BCN or simply a senior reporter?? I wonder if Angus ever had the same issues with “Mouse”? Nice continuity by Georgia of going from Jules-y to August!

This just in!: Catnaps are still a thing.

Owl Mc Hooter had a barn

E I E I MEOW

And in the barn they watches video

E I E I MEOW

Here a meow, there a meow

All night watch video and then meow meow

Owl Mc Hooter had a barn

E I E I MEOW

…

A raccoons here and opossums there

And they was bugging everyone everywhere

A bug in a jar can’t fly afar

Unless one sets the lid ajar

But a mouse outta house sets him free and he flees.

It too late when the raccoons sees

Zoom zoom he flees

Zoom zoom he flies

Here a zoom zoom there a zoom zoom

Everywhere he zooms free

…

Owl Mc Hooter had a barn

E I E I MEOW

And in the barn they watches video

E I E I MEOW

A zzzzz-zzzzz here and a zzzzz-zzzzz there

Here a zzzz, there a zzzz,Naps em cats zzzzz-zzzzz…

There’s always one early bird who makes it tough on everybody else.

I was telling my partner about the characters and he said “So Baba Mouse lives in a hut with chicken legs?” I said “You’re thinking of Baba Yaga.” “You just said she lives in the old chicken coop. That’s a hut with chicken legs (and chickens) in it.” Dang!

I warned Alexandria that when she is picking classes at college this fall, no tough classes first thing in the morning. You really don’t want Calculus at 8:00 a.m.

Meanwhile, Back on the Nile

Queen Catshepsut the Golden: Welcome back to Egypt, Jules. How was your July vacation?

Jules: It was extra special this year, Your Majesty. I was with friends old and new.

The Queen: Well, we have a surprise for you. Ladies?

Enter Arachna, Sophititi, Maat-Tilda, and Adobe Style

Maat-Tilda: Jules, we would like to dedicate this July tapestry to your annual adventures.

Adobe Style: It will be on display in the Koffee Shop at the Afar Public Library and Koffee shop!

Jules: Oh, how lovely. Is this what you were working on the other day, Arachna?

Arachna: Yes. I decided to leave the little hole in it as part of your adventure.

The Queen: We’ll have the dedication ceremony a bit later. I understand Serfig-Aro has done wonders with the kitten trumpet class.

Maat-Tilda: That’s right. How many does he have in his class?

The Queen: I believe it’s seventy-six.

Once my Kitty was typing away on my keyboard and removed the cap for the letter C. It wouldn’t go back on, and one could no longer type the letter C! This was a problem bexause many words use that letter. I had to take the xomputer to the Genius Bar at the loxal mall to have it fixed. I assume she was attempting to type “cat.”

Ha! fun to see the “after party” of such a legendaryJuly story arc.

The world is a conspiracy to annoy Elvis. (As usual.)

OK any production involving cats must experience this regularly. I suggest an entire chapter in the HR manual with appropriate procedure to recover in such expected circumstances

Those are some hard-working cats.

Going back into the office is going to be quite a change for many employees and companies.

Late for work? As another cool cat put it, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bvnhodcB62g

Robbing Peter to make Paul sleepy.

Actually, this is the sort of ‘work’ day I have always imagined for a cat newsroom. Snoozing, napping, and grooming, punctuated by frenzied bulletins between meals. Maybe the occasional feature, or investigative reporting with sporadic tussles and puffed tails. I mean in cat terms Elvis, Puck and Lupin are workaholics!

Paraphrasing a Puck quote…“Elvis, please! If I don’t get my 22 hours of sleep I’m just not myself!”

“More after this nap from our sponsors.”

Cats, attendance?

In panel three, Burt’s left paw really does look like it’s on the “T.”

So they have a binge watching ’90s BCN hangover.

Mental health day for the three of them. Cuz if they have to put up with Elvis, they are gonna go mental.

This is the Best Comment Day!!!

Haaaaaaaa hahahahahahaha! Every body (‘ceptin’ Lupin and Elvis) was up Aaaaaaalllll night!

Awww so many sleepy kitties!

It’s just no use, Elvis.

Love the subtitles lapsing as Burt falls asleep on the keyboard
