Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for February 15, 2017
Transcript:
Snowball: Angora- I don't want you seeing that Kit Chase scoundrel. It's bad enough Princess had to run off with that Kit Chase scoundrel. It's bad enough Princess had to run off with that sailor's cat...Only to have him lost at sea- Cat: Captain Nimble and I were in love. You'd understand if you ever took the time to know him! Kitten: Mama- Snowball: This arguing is bad for my heart. Where are my pills... Angora: Father! Relax Angora, father has no heart- Snowball: Took you back in, didn't I? Show up on my doorstep wrapped in a fishing net, with a kitten...Now, please. I need my rest. Angora: Father- Kitten: Grandpoppy- Cat: Ugh. Snowball: Thank goodness for my pills. Angora: Oh, this live of lavish refinement and indecision. Kit: Psst! Angora! Angora: Kit! Kit: Mind if I join you? Angora: You climbed two stories? Kit: I'd climb a whole novel for you girl. Come away with me, Angora. You've never lived the stray cat life. We'll sleep in flower boxes and eat garbage. Angora: That's gross. Kit: Hot garbage? Nothing better! Angora: Like tires and stuff? Kit: Have you talked to your father? Angora: I tried, but- His weak heart. He's so fearful it will be Captain Nimble all over again. Kit: Captain Nimble? That reminds me...I got this letter... From the sea. Puck: Gasp! Robber Mouse: Gasp! Burt: Captain Nimble was best friends with the Chase brothers! Could it be? TV: Next week on Our IX Lives. What's going on here! My heart- Burt: This new break from the station was a great idea, Puck. Puck: Thanks! It's usually a laundry room.

Teamwork.

I love all the detail, especially in the last panel—Figaro’s GN mug and his little writing tablet in his pocket, the Teamwork calendar, the socks, Burt and Puck enjoying the newly converted laundry room turned break room, they’re using an ironing board for a table. Ha! I wonder where Lupin is? Maybe gone invisible? ;)

Ha! I just caught the portrait of Captain Nimble is by Sophie! Apparently she had a more tradtional style at one time.

Hooray! This is the very first episode of Our IX Lives! For all newcomers, this is a standalone, not the start of a serial. It was so popular, Georgia did another and then the big Christmas serial.

I love “I’d climb a whole novel for you!”

Two days ago was the sixth anniversary of Puck joining the family. There are photos and a writeup https://www.instagram.com/p/BQd7km-FYcd/

I like how the return address on that letter literally is “The Sea.”

Wish this was a soap on TV – it is better than anything I have seen! Love the little round kitty “Grand poppy” so cute. And the mouse watching while laying on the ironing board – this is so fun!

Our IX Lives is one of my favorites! What a great poster this would be!

Love the comic as always ^ one tiny note: calico cats (and torties) are actually always female ^ This is because the gene responsible for this color pattern is present on the x-chromosome. If the trait on one x-chromosome is for black fur, and the trait on the other x-chromosome is for orange fur, then the fur will have both black and orange patches, depending on which x-chromosome is active in that patch of skin. The white fur is located where neither trait is active. Since boy cats only have one x-chromosome, they will have only orange patches, or only black patches, but not both ^^

Where did they get that poster? Or coffee maker? Or tv? Well I suppose that they could have gotten the poster from Sophie, maybe Burt got the tech…

Hey, Our IX Lives takes place in Orange County, if the zip code is to be believed.
