Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for March 10, 2024

TEN YEARS? Time really does fly!

BCN has a ten year tenure…

Wait…what? I do NOT remember Lupin and Goldie accidentally getting married or Puck and Elvis having to drive a car!

Aww. Lupin and Goldie make such a wonderful unhinged unhappy couple. Best frenemies forever.

Now you’re just messing with us, BCN!

Happy birthday to Breaking Cat News, the comic that launched a community through cats!

Love that last panel. So special to see everyone together!

I hesitate to repeat a line over and over, but: “That last panel needs to be on a mug!”

(Besides, it’s always been appropriately used in the past, so let’s keep using it!)

In other words, Cat Bless Us…. Everyone! As for Tueday…..Will there be cake?

Here’s to the next ten!

Happy 10th anniversary to Georgia, the BCN crew and their friends and to all of the wonderful folks here in the Orb! Long may it continue.

By the way, March 12 is a pretty big day for me as well—- my son’s birthday. Yay!!!!

Sunday Funday

I must be getting old and having memory problems because I don’t remember these!

I keep thinking of the line from the old TV show, about how there are eight million stories in the (unclothed) city, and it looks like Georgia has enough material for another ten years and, I hope, even more.

Congratulations and many thanks to Georgia and the whole BCN gang.

Conga-rats on ten years! Thanks for all the fun.

I’m going to have to go back to the beginning. I think I started reading in the middle. Congrats on 10 years!

And we’ve been translating this comic for russian viewers for all of those 10 years (though specifically I’ve been translating it for 9 of those years)Happy Birthday, Breaking Cat News!!!

The quietly spoken power behind the throne is there. Heya, Sir Figaro Newton!

OT: brave cats

Congratulations! And here’s to 10 more!

i need to see those storylines now! we can’t just leave things like that hanging!

Congratulations and thank you for a decade of joy and laughter!

Ah, yes. I remember all those well.

And in the last panel, another little wave from Iggy.

time to spring forward

playing make believe with time

the sun knows the truth

Hard to believe it’s been ten years already. Congratulations Georgia! Thank you for creating such a wonderful world and allowing us a peek into it. I’m looking forward to the next ten years.

I must be getting senile. i don’t remember any of those events/reports. I was really hoping for another 10 years before my mind went. oh well it’s been a good run. if I don’t recognise you next time we meet, don’t take it personally.

Remember when the whole crew defused a bomb? Or when Trevor and Beatrix saved a school bus, full of kids, from that well? Sigh! Good times, good times! Happy 10th Anniversary, BCN!

The narrator appears at 2022/10/30 …

I love the inclusion of the image of upside down Lupin from “the ceiling is floor, too, if you believe in yourself” report to let us know that Lupin will live on forever. I love the image of Beatrix sitting on Trevor’s hat from the Peeptoads story. I hope that was a nod to @BillJackson since that was one of his favorites.

Aliens? But of course. Just what the alien astronut theorists had always suspec…. Now waitsaminute. When did this happens? When was them aliens invades? When did any of these happens?

So Many Toe Beans!

I remember Phoebe And Her Unicorn celebrating its tenth anniversary nearly two years ago in April 2012. Phoebe finally celebrated her tenth bithday after ten years as a nine-year-old girl. She shared her tenth birthday with the much older Marigold Heavenly Nostrils who posed for Medieval tapestries of unicorns.

Ahhh!! … All this is is Unused Footage that Burt is saving for later! …

And who knew that Puck and Elvis learned to drive from Toonces – The Cat Who Could Drive A Car !!? … :)

I want, no, need a t shirt, print, mug, ornament p, anything with that last panel. Everybody, all together!

Happy Anniversary, BCN and Georgia! Looking forward to at least 10 more years!!

The last panel definitely needs to be on a mug, Happy 10th to the BCN crew, and the ORB!

Lennon/McCartney: Obla Di Obla Dah

Lupin finds a matching dress for his white fur

Goldie tries on a purple tux

Lupin says to Goldie, “That just isn’t you”

I wouldn’t wear it for a million bucks!

…….

Obla Di Obla Dah, life goes on, brah!

La, la how the life goes on!

Obla Di Obla Dah, life goes on, brah!

La, la how the life goes on!

…….

Cat News does a news piece about brides and grooms

Show the (un) happy couple on the screen

Puck and Elvis do the news broadcast

And Lupin and Goldie tell them they are really mean!

…….

Obla Di Obla Dah, life goes on, brah!

La, la how the life goes on!

Obla Di Obla Dah, life goes on, brah!

La, la how the life goes on!

…….

In a couple of days the couple think the worst,

What can they do to go back how it was?

Then they realize the wedding took place April 1st

Ora teases them as she always does!

…….

Happy ever after in the Big Pink House

Elvis lets the smol cats lend a paw

Lupin goes on camera with his pretty face

And Goldie goes to investigate it all.

And if you want some fun

Take ob-la-di, bla-da

Ah, thank you

Happy birthday BCN, we’re with you Georgia!

Congratulations on 10 years, BCN! And congratulations to Georgia Dunn!

Happy Anniversary to Georgia, to BCN and to the Orb! I came to the Orb a little later than some, but the family here has been a joy. Here’s to another 10.

Congratulations BCN & Georgia! Thank you for the years of laughs and drama, and for a community of cat lovers that care for people they’ve never met IRL.

Meanwhile, Back on the Nile

Thomios: Today’s banquet will feature Perfect Perch, bacon wrapped ham, and a dessert buffet of Many Things.

Elvis-Anum: I understand there may be an announcement of some kind.

Beatrixia: Maybe it’s to announce a new pyramid has been found.

Iggy: Or there will be a new sports team organized.

Ora Z: Will there be things to shred and burn?

Puckmosis: Maybe we can find a demolition project for you.

Queen Catshepsut the Golden: I have called everyone together to celebrate the anniversary of 10.

Puckmosis: Has it really been ten years since we’ve all been together?

Queen Cat: Yes. It seems difficult to believe, but there it is.

Lupinium: I’ll help celebrate with a new routine.

Burt-Ra: I understand the Royal Procurers have something planned.

Elvis: What could that be?

The Royal Procurers: We’ll never tell!

Anyone have any links to those momentous events?

Lupin reminds me of someone I know, he makes up things all the time. We say he has a very active imagination

Happy Anniversary BCN. Hope some of these “memories” are previews of things to come.

Happy Anniversary BCN!

Yay!! Happy Birthday BCN and good wishes to the crew & interns, robber mice, Woman, the kids, and everybody!! Here’s to many more!

I love your strip, Georgia.

I’m thinking this is inspired by 1970s (or later) sit-com episodes that were montages of their “greatest hits”. Each premise here makes me want a full story arc!

Happy Anniversary, BCN!

And a big Thank You to Georgia for a decade of wonderful adventures!

Is Lupin joining the aliens or is he actually an alien in a cat suit?

I don’t remember any of those.

RSORTB in a car! RSORTB in a flood!

WOOHOO! Congratulations Georgia on 10 years of Breaking Cat News!Thank you Lupin for starting it all in the middle of the night!

Happy Gotcha Day to BCN! I remember the first day BCN caught my attention in The Houston Chronicle. Today’s strip is getting cut out too – it’s a keeper!

OT Mothers’ Day

Thank you so much, Georgia, for ten years of your wonderful cats and their adventures. Reading this strip every day helped me cope with the most difficult times of my life, four years ago. Here’s to another 10 years of joy and laughter from you.

From Georgia yesterday, posted so late I thought I’d repost: “While this never happened with a bureau, longtime readers might remember the big scare a few years when Elvis briefly got outside!After a lonnng, frightening search (and me preparing to sleep out in the yard in a tent, not kidding), my neighbor finally spotted him under the shed in a spot his own cat used to hide in. Elvis had somehow gotten wedged in a very narrow spot dug into the ground. He wouldn’t let anyone else near him, and so I climbed down into the briars and ivy, reached my arms under until I grabbed him, and said quietly to him, “ok buddy… we’ve got to slide, just trust me.” God bless him, Elvis tensely slid along the dirt with me, on my elbows, through the ferns and thorns, until we got back to the gap he had crawled in through. That whole incident was TOO MUCH to relive in the comic, lol, but the bureau felt like a cozy substitute!”

My cat celebrated by launching a hair ball on the recliner this morning. He was that excited.

Happy Anniversary BCN!

Your strip made me check my morning orange juice for vodka and my gummy vitamin for those funny hemp gummies. It’s too early to be messing with my aged mind.

Happy Birthday, Breaking Cat News. Here’s to the next ten years.

A very happy anniversary to Georgia and the rest of the BCN crew. Here’s to many more years of adventures big and small!

Maybe Georgia is trying out ideas for new story arcs. I, for one, would love to see more about any these. Especially the aliens and the unhappy couple.

Congratulations to Georgia & the BCN crew! Here’s to 10 plus more years!

Time sure flies when you’re reading such wonderful things as BCN News and all the Orb comments! Congratulations on those past, Ms. Dunn, and looking forward to as many more as possible!

Happy Tenth Anniversary, BCN!!!

OT: Georgia just posted the original lost Elvis story from 4/2/19 "We had a big scare last night, when life imitated art and Elvis got out and vanished for a few hours!The Man got home from work, walked through the door and asked, “Did Elvis get outside?”“Noooo,” I said. “Well, I just saw a Siamese dash around the back of the house.”He went back out, I began to turn the house upside down (as Puck, Lupin, Goldie looked on) then the Boy called from the living room window, “Elvis just ran across the front yard!” Cut to us walking up and down our street, shaking treats, calling for Elvis, trying to make whipped cream can sounds (a sound he usually comes running for). Our dear neighbor friends Kari, Jeff, and Jayne joined in the search (Kari and Jeff with flashlights once it got dark, Jayne with texts of support and promises to put chicken out for him, to hopefully lure him to her porch).The Man spotted him by our trash, then he was gone again. We all narrowed our search to the backyard. The Man and I checked under the shed probably 8-9 times and could not spot anything, but our neighbor Jeff had a hunch he just had to be under there. While we hunted through the ivy and brambles, Jeff got into the underbrush behind the shed and called to us, “Yep—there he is! I see his fuzzy butt!” I shined the flashlight in from the side, and sure enough—there was a tiny dip in the earth and Elvis was all curled up behind it. We never would have seen him from straight on. The Man traded places with Jeff and then I traded places with the Man, being the one person who can handle Elvis without being scratched to pieces. I got my hands under the shed, up to my shoulders in ivy, blackberry brambles, spiders, and Cat knows what else, talking to him quietly and got him into my hands. We both sat there for a few minutes, with me talking to him and promising to get him out of there, and then finally, slowly, I shimmied/pulled/eased him about two feet to the

Happy Birthday, BCN.

Okay, time to raid the BCN archives, because there’s clearly been some lost footage that hasn’t aired on our broadcasters. :P

I’ve only been reading here for a couple months. Sometime when I’m bored or sad, I’m going to hit that back button and start from the very beginning. I love this strip!

I completely believe the story about Lupin flooding the house, but I think the other assertions are untrue.

Happy Tenth Anniversary.

HUZZAH

And here’s to MANY MORE – there are clearly further adventures to explore!

Happy Anniversary to the BCN Crew!

Has it been 10 years already??? Time sure does fly. Georgia, I wish you and the BCN crew many more years on air. Thank you so much for making a fun, sweet, all ages friendly, comic based on one of the best animals out there: cats!

BCN Crew vs. Heathcliff, Garfield, Bucky and Catbert in a game of Family Feud. ❤️ ☺️ Or maybe Laff-A-Lympics to make it fair.

I remember BCN before Georgia was syndicated. Great illustrations & story ideas!

Your strips are consistently wonderful. Always. I read your strip last so my day will start in good humor. Love your work! You are truly great!!!

Happy anniversary! Wow, I haven’t watched half of those broadcasts; looks like I have a lot of cat-ching up to do! ;-)

I am glad you got syndicated and are making enough money that this isn’t just a bad habit. I’m sorry that you have to do a comics form and can’t do the original free form whole art sheets. Please post the last frame in high resolution on your web page or print it and sell it.

How did I miss all those intriguing broadcasts???? Guess I’ll have to hit the Way Back Button and start over again!

Oh my Cat, ten years?! Congrats on this incredible milestone, Georgia! BCN is always the highlight of our day.

Love Lupin on the ceiling in the last panel!

Congratulations on an amazing milestone! Here’s to many, many, MANY more years of laughter and fun. And thank you so much for this comic Georgia, it means a lot to many people.

Happy anniversary!

I don’t believe it.

BCN had to start just last week…

Happy 10th birthday BCN! Here’s wishing you many more xo

Congratulations, BCN! It seems Georgia has many more years of wonderful ideas to come.

I don’t know about you, but Lupin flooding the house seems entirely plausible ᓚᘏᗢ

Thank you, very silly kitty crew. (Commercial break)

Vive la Compagnie!!

Here’s to a wonderful 10 years of Georgia and the BCN crew. Looking forward to the next 10, 20, 30 years of BCN. Georgia your artwork and storytelling are amazing.

I just started reading this comic about a year ago and I love it. It always makes my day!! Happy 10th Birthday!!!

Happy Tenth Anniversary, BCN! May you continue to grace us for many, many years.

And thank you, Georgia, for bringing light into an increasingly dark world.

Looks like everything has already been said, but happy 10th anniversary anyway! And many more to come❤️

Congratulations Georgia! Thank you so much for all the fun and laughter your cat family gave to me a nd my cat family the last 10 years. Here’s to many, many more years for BCN!

HAPPY 10TH ANNIVERSARY, BCN!!!!!!! ღƪ(ˆ◡ˆ)ʃ♡ƪ(ˆ◡ˆ)ʃ♪ And may there be many many more! I’d really like to know how Lupin and Golide accidentally wound up married! :D That’s the most mind-blowing of this “unseen” news footage!

And of course Iggy with a tiny wave!

Georgia, thank you for a magic 10 years. It seems like it isn’t that long, but still like BCN has always been there.

congratulations on 10 years

Here’s to many more years of BCN

Congratulations to “Breaking Cat News”, Georgia, and all the cats. Thanks for all the smiles these last ten (!) years, and for always brightening my day.

How about the Discovery of Beatrix or the story of if Tillie. The truth about the mailman? The vile new kibble?

Happy Birthday!

So cute! Happy Anniversary!

Wait, I dont remember any of that stuff! Here I thought I was caught up.

I wondered if Georgia would have flashbacks during the anniversary week. I didn’t see this coming though. I was wondering about this strip since part of it appeared on Patreon. I thought it might be dreams the cats had had, I like that it ends up being stories that we haven’t actually seen. Like others I would love to see more of these stories.

Happy Birthday, Georgia, and happiness to thy clowder and spouse

Oops, I forgot Georgia, the man is only in the strip, you aren’t together anymore. Please pardon my lapse in memory

Did Lupin borrow that wedding dress from one of the Taggart sisters?

Happy 10th, thanks for the smiles!

Happy Anniversary, BCN! I’d love to see some of those stories referenced, maybe ask Burt to go through the tapes to find them?

(Though I have NO trouble believing that Lupin flooded the house!)

Ah, nuts. I don’t remember any of these. Guess I have to go back and reread everything from the beginning.

Love the art work on this one :) the last panel is absolutely adorable:)

Happy 10th Annerversary, BCN!!! :D

Well now you’ve set yourself up with a bunch of stories we all HAVE to HEAR!

I wanna see the one about the game show!

Happy 10th Anniversary! Thank you so much, Georgia, for your beautiful artwork, loveable characters and engaging stories. BCN is so much fun and is a place I must visit every day.

I was a little late to the party, but better late than never! Thank you, Georgia, and the BCN crew for the daily smiles.

HAPPY 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY!!!!

Another couple weeks, and I’ll have been reading BCN for 10 years. Thank you, bus-friend of my lady’s, for telling us about this so-wonderful comic drawn by a remarkably wonderful woman, the Patron Saint of the Orb, Miss Georgia Dunn.

Thank you to my old friend Kim Metzger (he’s okay, he’s emailed me) for sending me the first Breaking Cat News book and turning me on to Georgia’s amazing world. One of the best presents he ever gave me.

Congratulations and why am I sitting here, bawling like an idiot?

Ten years!! I haven’t been in the group quite that long but I have been through the archives and I sure don’t remember any of those intriguing stories!

Happy 10 years!

Fake News?
