Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for May 09, 2018

Oh Woman, give up buying expensive cat toys. All they want is the plastic bags and crinkled paper.

Listen as Elvis attempts to guilt the Woman out of any repercussions for chewing through the cord. “If only you’d give me what I really want, I wouldn’t have had to do this.” He sounds like such a teenager.

woman saves the day! “i was just going to taste it”, indeed, uh huh..

Just like how Blossom prefers candy wrappers and bits of plastic…tsk, tsk.

The vacuum cleaner isn’t frowning anymore! Now she’s got a startled wide-eye surprised look.

Elvis, you got caught in the act! You should be glad that the woman seems unable to see the AV cord that you shredded!

I love how the Woman thinks she’s actually going to get Elvis to change what he’s doing by giving him the “finger shake” lecture. That has never worked for me. On the other paw, Elvis seems to think he can argue his way out of this. But then he is Mommy’s Special Pirate Ballerina so maybe he can.

Meanwhile Lupin is still nekkid.

My baby Fynn (whose rescue day is today, six years ago someone dumped him in a curbside garbage can as a tiny kitten) loves hair ties. He has learned to open drawers and explore purses in his desire for a “mouse” with which to play fetch with Mama.It’s better than when we had actual mice, since Beatrix would catch them, carry them around by the scruff of their tiny necks, then dump them on me whilst I was sleeping, I’m assuming in the hopes I would throw them so she could fetch them again.

They are the only two in the household who play fetch, and they are very particular about what they will fetch.

Only going to taste it, eh Elvis?? Suuuure you were! Good morning Mega Orbsters! {{{{{{{{{{{{{sending lots of orb bumps, boops, healing thoughts and positive vibes to SheMc and her hubby Jan}}}}}}}}}}}}}} I pray he will beat the cancer! Stay strong lovely.

Warming up our patented Mega Orb Purry-Vibro-Booper for all orbsters & their loved ones needing loving support!

Special mention to SheMc & Jan, WitcheeMinx & Nicky, LadyKat & Andy, CDPond (who lost a baby Saturday), Burke129529 & Dee, KL, and the sweet 80-year-old orbster dealing with cancer (so sorry I can’t remember your name — but the Creater knows!), LadyBri & her Andy & Dad, and anyone else needing comfort!

Fortunately, the Purry-Vibro-Booper is powered by love, so it has an endless energy source to handle all orbster needs! Blessings!

Love, >^.,.^<

I think he’s my Dead Buckwheat incarnate. That cat ate everything! He didn’t just chew things, he swallowed them. Earplugs, fabric, plastic leather; he had several surgeries to remove stuff, not to mention the overnight stays getting castor liver oil (or something) to clear out his system. My vet called him a Garbage Can Cat. That “free” cat cost us a fortune but I loved him to death. We had to hide everything behind doors with baby locks, put things in the nuker like bread or rolls in plastic bags, the trash can was in the guest bathroom. All cords had to be attached to the walls with those stick-on things.

Elvis, you fool! You can choke on those fiendish plastic bags. That’s why she doesn’t give em to you!

I just noticed – Elvis has dressed to match the Woman!

My Elvis is honest to a fault. How I love him. If only the woman would explain that she doesn’t give him those things because she loves him.

I noticed the woman’s headband matches the vacuum bag.

And Lupin’s plan gets Elvis into trouble again!Elvis is having a very hard time lately.

Woman: Not to mention how much I spend buying you matching outfits that I can’t even see!

Good morning and happy Hump Day, orbsters and orbabies! Paul had his oral surgery yesterday and was understandably grumpy for the rest of the day. He seems fine this morning, though. We go down to in-laws’ place later today so he can have his MRI at 4:30 tomorrow morning. I really hope that it pinpoints the origin of his cancer so no further exploratory work will be needed and we can get on to the treatment stage.

Elvis, stop arguing with the woman. Hair ties are expensive, especially if you eat them as opposed to just batting them around!

Py, The Imperial’s passions were bread ties and that loop off the milk container. Which he played with endlessly. After ‘killing’ an endless parade of toy mice, skinning them and leaving the little fleecy hides neatly licked flat on my bed

I had to replace the tubing straps on my swim paddles recently. Apparently the old discarded pieces of rubber tubing are The Best Cat Toys Ever.

Sandy favors crumpled paper balls, Saxon likes to test his big white fangs by sinking them into Styrofoam or the foam pad I use for exercise. There’s a decorative edge of fang marks along all the edges. Sigh.

My twin brother cats love to bat hair tie and toss them in the air, but only if they can “steal” them. If I give them one, they just stare at me and walk away looking insulted.

And Lupin’s plans get Elvis into trouble again.Poor Elvis is having a hard time.

Elvis and the Woman look just alike, same. Poses, clothes, and facial expressions.

True. Never spend money on cat toys. Unless it is ping pong balls. My cats always loved ping pong balls.. the noise they made going through the halls…

But yeah, a Siamese can out-talk a human. We had a Siamese that would hold conversations with you for 20 minutes or longer… they are long winded cats.

Sadie and Reilly love pipe cleaners (I don’t use them for cleaning pipes) I kind of curl them up, we have a pile of them on the floor in the play area. They carry them around and drop them anywhere though. Ricky loves Q tips, he only goes for the ones in the bathroom trash can that have ear wax. I bought a heavy can that he can’t tip over but he still digs for them!!! My wife says he can smell the ear wax! Ricky is a strange cat.

Speaking of expensive toys, my little Rachel lost her favorite toy, she treated it like a baby, it was so cute. I couldn’t find a replacement any where. I called Hartz pet toys because I was pretty sure they made it, when I described it to the lady she said she didn’t think they made one any more, she sent me a box full, about 10 toys, of ones she thought were similar to the description to see if Rachel would bond with any of them. They sent them FREE of charge, no shipping no nothing. This is my shout out to Hartz, I would appreciate it if you folks would think of buying some of their pet toys, they are the nicest people.

Every once in awhile I’ll come in the room and catch one of mine playing with himself. (I keep meaning to have “The Talk” with them … really, I do … but it just never seems to be the right time.)

Very pleased to hear on the news last night that cat declawing has been banned in BC – just 8 more provinces and 3 territories to go. Also need to work on getting dog ear cropping banned but at least it’s a strat

i finaly got my account image working YES!

Good Afternoon Everyone! :) Hope everyone is doing well :) (sending hugs )

i wonder will they ever play with paint… (and no i’m not covered in paint my fur color was like this the 1st time i saw it)

Spoiler for ALEXCATKING.

Side note:) What kind of tv do yall like to watch ? I like science fiction and superheros. And older tv like they play on metv :)

Oh, mine also LOVE plastic easter eggs.

I’m wondering if Madam Vacuum agrees with Puck that Lupin has won the battle?

Cardboard boxes – anytime. Paper bags – anytime. Fragile objects near an edge – anytime. Plastic bottle caps being used as soccer balls/hockey pucks on bare floors – 3 am.

Lupin’s little pink back toe beans!

That last panel is so my cat Hammy, he plays with cords all the time instead of the perfectly good toys we have him (though to be fair he plays with them too sometimes).
