Megan stretched, shook her head drew a deep breath. “Now, according to my research, there’s a tow yard/auto body shop two blocks east of here on a dead end street. It’s kind of isolated, if you know what I mean.” “Is it known for staging these fights?” “Sadly, yes it is, Kitten. And this is where you and I are going to start.” “You lead, Meg, I’ll follow…” “Megan, you want me to canvas the neighborhood, right?” “Yes, Max, talk to our brothers and sisters, the resident cats. Find out for me when this thing is going down and see if you get a description of the Alpha Dog and where he’s put up.” “Got it, Megan. I know the neighborhood cats probably won’t get within a mile of that place, but as sure as I’m standing here someone will know what we need.”
The white mouse is still wearing her needle rapier, party dress or not, the table is a roll of cloth ribbon and apparently they did manage to steal a thimbleful of cranberry space goo. I can’t quite see, even enlarged, what their clothespins are, though. Reminds me a bit of The Borrowers, a book I loved very much as a child.
Uh oh. It’s the robber mice! Those foul fiends! Those harbingers of the plague! Those vile vermin! Those reeky rats! Those crooked crooks! How dare they steal the food! … Okay, okay, I steal food too, but it’s not the same thing, ya know. ;0)
. . . “BREAKING CAT NEWS!” . . . EARLY UPDATE ON GEORGIA DUNN’S FRIEND’S CAT, NEWTON FROM HIS OWNER! . . . last night, I sent this message to Newton’s owner:
“I received information of Newton, from “Georgia Dunn – Breaking Cat News” and shared it with her followers. If, you go on gocomics.com, you can read the comments from others about Newton. If, I may suggest, would you make a better video of Newton, soon and with better lighting and post it on youtube.com? Then, I can share it for you on Georgia’s gocomic site for her followers. (“cat people”, can be quite passionate about our kitty cats! lol! :p ) We are glad to learn that Newton is finally home with you. <3 :) " (response from facebook)
This morning, she responded with a short and positive note. She must be absolutely surprised from her new “BCN friends”, here. This past week, with an important American holiday, I was only able to respond late at night and with OVER 300 responses here, who goes back to read the later ones or “yesterday’s news”? So, I’m only awake for a few more minutes, then I’m “crashing”. Go back a few days and learn about “Newton’s Story”, if you like and continue to pray for him or donate. He is home and “in recovery.” You are certainly welcomed to share your own stories and perhaps, “crash the gocomic’s page”! Stay tuned to this page for any further developments! I’m going back to bed for more “beauty sleep”! . . . GOOD MORNING & GOOD NIGHT! LOL! ((((HUGS))))
So much detail here, right down to the little tab of tape keeping the ribbon from unwinding. The only missing item I don’t see here is the man’s pen that went missing before Halloween.
I imagine the robber mice forage from the other apartments too. Maybe that two bead french hook earring was from Tabitha and Sir Figaro’s Woman. Although I can’t imagine Tabitha being so nearly unobservant as a certain three…8)
Good morning and happy Caturday, orbsters and orbabies. Now we know where all the missing items went (except, of course, for the Man’s pen). I am glad that the Robber Mice, even though they are pests, are having their own feast. It looks as though they filched enough food to last them a while.
Here is a news story with a happy ending to be thankful for about a woman who saved herself and her cat in impossible conditions. I was checking the fire news in the Sacramento Bee. Sacramento is over 100 miles from the Paradise fire but even they had two weeks of heavy smoke and ash. Roseville is next to Sacramento. It’s part of the happy ending. Warning. This story is harrowing but beautiful, especially realizing this is about someone who has health problems. https://www.sacbee.com/news/state/california/fires/article221872155.html#storylink=hpdigest
A hate getting here so late in the day. The best comments are already taken. Love the strip today all the past stories come together in one panel. Enjoy your feast girls you earned it.
I don’t remember a “Q” having been part of the original Pucky’s Perfect Christmas Tips. The only “Q” I can think of is “Quinn.” Are some of these gals the descendants of a Quinn rescued mouse?
I’m sorry, I just could not get into a mouse-home-centric storyline.as a we all do I enjoy reading the antics of puck, lupus, and Elvis into my own cats . But if I thought my five cats could not prevent robber mice then I would be ashamed of my cats. And my dog.

I’m pleased to see the mice have washed their masks and striped jerseys.
But I still think the boys should eat them.

And this was the strip, way back on the original website, where we realized that all four of the Robber Mice were lady mice.

Still love the white, round pizza thing that serves as a chair. So cute!

I thought the three things hanging from the earring were water droplets, and assumed it was all laundry at first. (So much for my “great eye”! :-) ).
