Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for September 05, 2019

I’m glad Lupin can read whiskers even through an Epic Elvis Poof!

Wait, no…not reading whiskers. Reading teleprompter. I failed a spot check.

Oh, no! It’s Elvis who’s supposed to leave the building—not Lupin!

I just caught the tiniest little cricket I’ve ever seen in my kitchen, and released it outdoors. Didn’t hear any chirping from it though. The cats didn’t notice it, but they did alert me to a spider in the living room earlier. Hope I’m not being invaded!

Don’t LEAP to conclusions Lupin, investigate and report!

Where is Lupin off to? Who writes the teleprompter script, if not Burt? Waiting to get this cleared up.

Whoever or whatever writes the text for the teleprompter is doomed.

Does Lupin need glasses?

He Lupes into action.

Another Lupin back head shot! He’s so cute not matter what the angle.

There should have been a whoooosh!. to go with that last panel

And the tele-promting is actually coming from inside the house!

SCREETCH

SCREETCH

SCREETCH

SCREETCH

I don’t recall ever seeing those squinty eyes from Lupin before.

Wait … is Lupin angry at the teleprompter? True TRILL SCREETCH TRILL SCREETCH TRILL SCREETCH is what should be showing up on the screen but maybe that’s just a programming issue.

Good morning, Orbsters! I bring you greetings from under heavy cloud cover (and not much else yet) here in Wake County, NC. Dorian is slated to start impacting our area later today. We’ll see what happens.

Here comes Lupin to the rescue!

Who oh who is typing in the teleprompter?

I know the real Lupin cannot hear, like the one in the comic. But does the real Lupin meows?

The cicadas are in full chorus each evening. I rather enjoy them. I did not, however, enjoy starting to slip my foot into a slipper and having one leap out.

Lookout! Lupin, the one cat wreaking ball, is on the case!

Has anyone else noticed that the “At the ZooComics by Zoe Piel” are gone?

I changed my phone’s ring tone to a cricket chirp in honor of the season and this BCN arc. Now my cat’s running to answer my phone for me!

OT: a quick thank you to everyone for all the kind thoughts sent to my friend after her car accident. She remains in the hospital, facing several more surgeries to try and save her leg…shattered tibia and fibula. But she will make it through all this soon enough…and I’m sure Orb Power helped tremendously. Thank you again

Why do I have the feeling that the cricket is right by the teleprompter? And Lupin is adorable, with his suspicions finally aroused. And Elvis, of course, is still in full poof mode!

Off topic but we all love animals. This is about a woman who ran an animal shelter in the Bahamas. She ended up taking 97 dogs into her own home during the hurricane! https://www.msn.com/en-us/video/lifestyle/dollar100000-donated-to-bahamas-woman-who-took-in-97-rescue-dogs/vi-AAGOt6K

All kitties survived the storm with noses, ears and tails intact.

OT: I’m baaaaack…

Hope Lupin hasn’t been receiving some form of Orwellian ‘Newspeak’!! :)

Lupin Leaps In!!!

Lupin, consider the source before completing that fine leap. Would Elvis be likely to make a screeeech out of a few chirps?

OT New rescue

I wish that strange golden cat would find the cricket and escort it outside!

Off Topic: Has anyone heard from Gloria Flemming lately? I haven’t seen her posts in the last few days — maybe I’m missing them? — is she okay? I worry about her …

Yes Lupin, the teleprompter is lying to you. It should be filled with chrip rather than reading just a couple.

OT

Hi Everyone,

I am finally home, back from the hospital and rehab/ retirement home.

Aug 6 to Sept 5…a whole month shot. A “simple procedure”- – - my behind. I have lots of instructions to follow from the doctors.

You won’t be hearing from me for a while, my email inbox is stuffed full, and I need to read a month’s worth of my “faves”.

I thank everyone who has “booped, prayed, sent good thoughts, etc. for me in the last month.

Thank you,

Noreen

Touching base … it just got real.

Jim Cantore was spotted in Wilmington, NC.

Oh, and the rain is coming down quite steadily as the wind picks up at 5:00 PM Eastern.

. . . IF, YOU CANNOT STAND CUTENESS, THEN DO NOT GO HERE! ENJOY! LOL :)

“Georgia Dunn – Breaking Cat NewsSix years ago I did this little Calvin and Hobbes themed photo shoot with the Boy! Yesterday was his first day of first grade, hard to believe!”

When the boy is a teenager, the woman can threaten to show that photo to gain leverage. ooooooh! Not fair! But, my cat, that is so cute.

A few days ago I told how Reboot reacted to the bugle alarm I use on my tablet to wake up in the mornings. Then it was jump, dirty looks, turn in midair, and leave the room at speed. Since then he has been watching me turn off the alarm by tapping the little circle on the screen. This morning, I was awake before the alarm went off and when it did, Reboot stuck out a paw and started tapping the screen. Too bad he wasn’t tapping it in the right place. If he ever figures that out, I bet I start oversleeping.

He is one smart kitty.

Doesn’t take them long to figure things out—mine have lately been trying to jump up and turn door knobs.
