Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for February 28, 2025

We were promised flying cars!

There’s also just being basically a living heated blanket on your human.

Might I suggest cats jump onto your person instead of dunking their phone? Use the Gracie technique of “Occupying YOUR Human.” And don’t forget to make biscuits once you have them pinned down!

I have a comfort cat who arrives in the night when I am having bad memories. He is a very good boy.

I just saw a video of a flying car prototype. Go to YouTube and do a search for “Kagan Dunlap” and a short about Alef Aeronautics.

Thank you Georgia, for creating Breaking Cat News! I do appreciate the gentle respite it provides from our sometimes “disturbing” daily life!

I’d love to have a flying car myself, but when I see how other people drive in two dimensions, I have grave doubts about letting them use a third.

Thank you for this week’s program, Georgia. Sanity breaks by our cats are one of the best things for our health.

I agree with the flying cars. I’m reading an Honorverse novel, and that universe has aircars held up with countergrav.

My husband and I were just discussing flying cars yesterday and how we were told the future would have them!! I blame The Jetsons.

Lupin the hero never has to listen to the complaining…But he knows his presence is important.

Marvelous segue into this one— kudos! And panel 2 made me burst out laughing— well done.

Sooo sweet that Lupin is wiping away a tear in panel three. Such a comforting cat !

I wanted The Jetsons future.Instead we got a cross between Mad Max and Bladerunner.

I don’t have the words to express how refreshing this week’s arc has been for me. Someone mentioned Walt Kelly in an earlier comment this week. Your boys & girls carry on a version of that Okefenokee charm. Such a pleasure.

Flying cars? What you wanting high speed accidents in the skies now?

OT: Reposting 6th Draft of Open Letter to GC (with signatures!)

We HAVE flying cars. What news is SHE listening to ? Probably CNN.

Lupin’s always ready to knock stuff off of things.

I see a tear in Panel 3. :-(

I love the cats’ expressions in panel three, so much sympathy. And I always keep the toilet seat down except when in use; it’s much safer that way for many reasons :)

Meanwhile, Back on the Nile

At Elvis’ Office

Master Scribe Hapi: I’m really glad you were able to help out, Bea!

Scribe Apprentice Mery: Yes. I just love to meet new people and try new things!

Beatrixia: I’m really pleased to meet you both.

Hapi: These illustrations look like different kinds of spyces. I’m wondering if this unreadable script shows instructions on how to use them.

Bea: I’ll bet Sue Chef can help us. And Iggy’s great with figuring out scripts.

Sometime Later

Sue Chef: You know, this picture looks like it could be cinnamon.

Iggy: And I think this script might be on how to use it.

Bea: Is that a picture of a donut? Could this be a recipe for cinnamon donuts?

Mery: I think it is!

Hapi: And this might be a picture of a kitt…uh soml cat wearing a donut.

Bea: I know who can help.

All: Ora Z!

I knew this was coming because people don’t care anymore, but I was hoping to be long gone before it happened. Just my luck!! At least I have BCN!!

Is anyone else having an issue where the page suddenly disappears and a rectangle pops up that says “I am not a robot”? Then it wants you to click to allow something. I don’t trust it so I just close out and come back here. It has happened to me on other sites as well.

I don’t need a flying car. I’d rather we have full cybernetic implants, so when your knee, hip, elbow whatever wears out, you just pop a new arm or leg or spine in there and you’re good to go. Sure, it brings the risk of Terminators, but I’m willing to take that chance.

Humor is an unlimited power choice! Burt nailed it.

Cats always have the answer!. Im headed to throw my phone in the toilet in honor.

We are living in the future, I’ll tell you how I know, I read it in the paper, Fifteen years ago, We’re all driving rocket ships, And talking with our minds, And wearing turquoise jewelry, And standing in soup lines

Of course we’ll continue tuning into the BCN broadcasts. Cat news is the best kind of news there is!

Cats are also an unlimited power source. Even their naps are powered (often solar-powered).

BCN and cats – best therapy available!

I swear by all that is good that I have been following this advice with this very comic for years now! This is how I start my day, NO MATTER WHAT (well, if no one is horking a hairball in front of me): before work stuff, email, anything: first I click on BCN. Tried, true, terrific!

Cats- you are the greatest!! !

Science fact of the day:Henry Ford built a small, lightweight airplane that would have served the same general purpose as a car. At the time, most of the infrastructure for cars hadn’t been built yet, meaning in an alternate universe, flying cars could have been developed in the early 1900s.

Amen to that, Georgia!

Humor is an unlimited power source.

Why SWMBO groans…

My dad dropped his phone in the toilet. He didn’t seem to appreciate me echoing the cell provider commercial running at the time… Can you hear me now?

I love Lupin brushing away the woman’s tear!

One More Lost Horizon Song: The Theme

Have you ever dreamed a place far away from it all?

Where you always feel free to dream

And the cats all play in the fields of green

And the sounds of strife

Do not sound anymore?

…….

Have you ever dreamed a place far away from it all?

Where you can smile with all your friends

And all the joy never ends

And the sounds of strife

Do not sound anymore?

…….

Many miles from forever

Where there’s no need of never

Where the time is always right

There’s a lost horizon

Waiting to be found

There’s a lost horizon

Where the sounds of strife

Do not sound anymore.

your broadcasts are Sooooo much nicer than ours!

A tiny island of sanity, in a vast ocean of disgusting dreck.

Thank you, cats. Your help is appreciated and you are loved. (Please don’t knock my phone into the toilet, though. Why replace a phone when we could be buying more kitty treats?)

I ignore people news for all the reasons listed on Wednesday. Thank heavens for BCN.

Thank you, Puck! It’s reassuring to know we can always tune in!

[bro] WE WANTED FLYING CARS BUT WE GOT… THE 2020S!!!!!!!!!X(

Out of the mouths of cats and jesters…

can you imagine the chaos if we did have flying cars??

I get an unlimited power source reading BCN every day. Its humor always puts a smile on my beak.

I’ll be tuning in until I can no longer use a computer or mouse – I need BCN; perhaps not as much as I need air or water, but close. Very close.

Humor IS an unlimited power source! Thanks for a brighter spot in the day Georgia!
