Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for June 05, 2021

It’s all I’m doing, and I didn’t even see it.

I think we now need a special retrospective report on how Elvis managed to do that, especially if there are pictures.

I think Elvis is a bit jealous of the robo vacuum. I am still waiting to see it wearing a little hat.

Is Elvis just a teensy bit jealous of Tortimer? Tortimer is really loving the Woman!

i super hunyrg you food no more

Yeah, but you don’t clean the house up, Elvis.

Tortimer looks so sad in that second panel!

Only The Woman could be so positive and motivating to a robot vacuum cleaner.

The woman is very fond of her newest pet! Will it last?

I am so glad I’m not the only one who coos soothingly to my roomba when she’s struggling. (Well, I’m a bad influence, so my husband does it too!)

I call discrimination!

Once I came home from grocery shopping and was putting stuff away when one of my cats stuck his nose into one of those thin plastic shopping bags with handles (the industry term is “t-shirt bags). Well he got his head through the handle and when he tried to get away the bag became a cape. This evil thing stuck to him and terrified him so he bolted around the house trying to get away. Of course that led to the “cape” flapping even more. We managed to stifle our laughter and corner him to get the bag off. He showed little interest in grocery bags after that.

Puss in boots? Yes, yes! That’s what happens when you (or your head) get too big for your boots…and – to boot – others just laugh when you are shaking in your boots

I would pay to see how Elvis even managed get into the boot.

awwwwwwwww, that’s nice

Awkward :-)

That’s why you have to leave the room before laughing at a cat. They never forget or forgive.

OT: ☺

Meanwhile, Back on the Nile

At the Palace Royal Archives

Beatrixia: It was nice seeing Broom-Sweepa at the Afar Public Library and Koffee Shop, wasn’t it, Elvis-Anum?

Elvis-Anum: Yes. I wonder how Whisk is making out at Brush Camp?

Beatrixia: I’m sure he’s having a great time. It reminds me of the fun I had at Scribe Camp.

Elvis-Anum: Ah, yes. I remember learning how to mix pigments and make colored inks.

Beatrixia: I remember a story about the legendary Multicolored Meese. Apparently something to do with an ink mixing mishap.

Elvis-Anum: There was no legend about that in my time. I’m sure it was a complete fiction with no basis in fact.

Leave it to Elvis to be jealous of the new “addition” to the family.

Yes but you’re a grown up, Elvis.

But does the Woman love it enough to put it in a silly suit during the People’s Annual Gourd Sacrifice?

You’re right, Elvis. Hyoomans is eevil! And robots is eeviler. Woe is we poor hapless creatures.

OT

Yeah, but she didn’t laugh when you got stuck trying to rescue Pengo from behind the bed a few months ago…

Woman said there’ll be days like this

There’ll be days like this, Woman said

(Woman said, Woman said)

Tort was brrring-ing it his first day

Everything was going fine

He met a crazy cat named Lupin

And then he almost lost his mind

Woman said there’ll be days like this

There’ll be days like this, Woman said

(Woman said, Woman said)

First day on the job is tough, as reported by Puck

Tortie got a little a lost & metric bonkers stuck

But he don’t worry ’cause

Woman said there’ll be days like this

There’ll be days like this, Woman said

(Woman said, Woman said)

And then she said there’ll be much better days

You’ll be sure to soon know your way, and try to keep

Those mean old Elvis-hating boots at bay

We’ve all had those kind of days, so don’t worry ’cause

We all know about days like this

There’ll be days like this, we all say

(We all say, we all say)

We all say there’ll be days like this

Hey, don’t you worry now

Smile instead, laugh instead (but not at Elvis)

Hey, hey

(Luther Dixon / Willie Denson – Mama Said – Shirelles

Elvis… the boot incident was ridiculous. That’s why The Woman laughed. (I would’ve too!)

Cats never, ever, forget being laughed at.

The derisive merits laughter, Elvis.

Oh, come on Elvis…A head stuck in a boot, that is comedy gold!

I’m sorry, Elvis, but I would have laughed too.

Down and down I go.

Round and round I go.

In a spin, lovin’ the spin I’m in.

Under that old black magic called love!

Glad I wasn’t drinking coffee when I read Elvis’s statement! LOL moment.

Elvis, you are just venting out of jealousy. And misremembering out of embarrassment. If indeed you were stuck, I’m sure the Woman reacted with appropriate panic to rescue Mommy’s Special Creampuff. Was this when you were a baby kitten? Because otherwise the news crew would have footage.

OT-new Kitty update

Elvis, we weren’t laughing at you; we were laughing with you. (You were laughing, right?)

But you are OK Elvis, you weren’t hurt, why not make friends maybe you can go for a ride!!!

@Elvis: Yeah, but when you get your head stuck in a boot, it’s funny.

Dougie cracks me up when he gets his head under a ball cap.

Tortimer is developing a crush on The Woman? Let’s hope it doesn’t lead to stalking…

It is going to happen again. You’re going to need a couch that is either higher or lower.

OT:

Love the expressive mouth on tortimer.

Laugh AND take photos

Yes, Elvis, but it was dignified laughter …

Mochi (My new cat) is waving “hai” to you! Not in a boot like Elivs

To be fair, Elvis, when you were discovered trapped under the couch, the Woman let you hug her face and called you her good boy. https://www.gocomics.com/breaking-cat-news/2017/08/05

It’s possible that Elvis’s natural temperament makes him more vulnerable to that sort of thing.

Sooooomebody’s Jealous

We all have our days, but Elvis has his every day…

I’m glad Tortimer feels better.

hee hee hee hee haa haa haa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Elvis, because you are not shiny and new, also the woman knows you.

OT: Persia

Lol, Elvis’ reply and angry little eyes!

And this is why everyone loves the woman.

all I can say LOL
