Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for September 16, 2020

Bea’s little flannel blanket is so darling! ❤ It looks cozy and comfy!

Is little Thimblefist always angry even when he is trying to be comforting? It would seem so. But at least he and Homestyle are trying to help. :) Poor brave little Bea.

So touching to see Homestyle and Thimblefist taking care of Beatrix.

What a support team!!

Sultan has wings!! And he’s even keeping them on :) He let us put him on them so easily, we think he loves them :)

I love the image of little Thimblefists comforting Bea in the last panel. So adorable.

Everyone looks sad.

Forever angry. What IS his beef?(!) But I’d bet Bea has some idea how to charge that phone slightly.

HOW CAN YOU DOUBT SOMETHING SAID IN ALL CAPS?

Aw, Beatrix is being well cared for, but she is homesick.

Lets see… Saturday everyone is throwing a party because everyone is safe. Friday… the rescue. Thursday… the Human’s get wise. Yep… still on schedule!

As sung by Mariah Carey: There’s a Hero

There’s a hero

If you see things with your heart

You don’t need to be afraid of where you are

Just have faith that

Things will turn out for the best

And that there will come more heros, too!

…….

And then more heroes come along

And give you strength to carry on

And they help you to survive

As you cast your fears aside!

And when you feel you can’t hold on,

Many heroes will be strong

And you finally see the truth,

All your hero friends and you!

What’s the use of a phone that won’t turn on when plugged into a tree?

“Trees are full of life” .So true. I used to visit Kew Gardens and in the park was a very large tree with headphones hanging down from the branches, you could hear a clicking sound as the sap was pumped up to the leaves.

Save the cuteness, clueless humans!!

Thimblefist is like me when dealing with some high tech gadgets I do not understand or most things that require some assembly like just about anything from Ikea….. ; Nonetheless the little one and “Homestyle” are doing their best to help and keep Beatrix company! Too bad the phone is likely out of charge but maybe Beatrix can get it to turn on one more time (especially if Thimblefist can’t find the “On” button) and then we see if the gang can find her via GPS.

I love little Homestyle ( wearing an original couture Homestyle tomato soup can…..LOOKING FANTASTIC!) is guarding Bea, fork in paw. BUT THIMBLEFIST IS NO SLOUCH COMFORTING BEA IN LAST PANEL They have proven themselves as excellent guardians.

IT IS GOING TO BE OK

But please hurry!

Can we all just take a moment to appreciate how beautiful and whimsical and funny the entire second panel is?♥♥♥

OT…a chance to save a kitten from FIP, Posted yesterday by ltrauth

It’s okay, Beatrix. Em hyoomans regularly eat a lotta garbage. They call it junk food.

I love how Beatrix is actually comforting Thumblefist in the last panel.

Thimble-beans!!!

Beatrix is such a polite cat-child, even when stuck in a tree.

Have you ever seen a cat skeleton in a tree? Everything will be okay.

how sweet! Thimbie & Homie have true hearts of gold – a silver lining?

Now if you feel that you can’t go on

Because all of your hope is gone

And your life has bad luck in profusion

Until happiness is just an illusion

And you’re afraid of tumblin’ down

Beatrix, reach out (come on child, reach on out for us)

Reach out (reach out for us)

We’ll be here, with care that will shelter you

We’ll be here, with a love that will see you through

We’ll be here to always get you through

When you feel stuck and really fed up

‘Cause your best just ain’t good enough

And you feel trapped and gettin’ cold

And you’re ruing goin’ out on your own

And you need a paw to hold

Beatrix, reach out (come on child, reach out for us)

Reach out (reach out for us)

We’ll stay here, to love and comfort you

And we’ll stay here, to watch over and care for you

We’ll stay here, to love and comfort you

And we’ll be here, you can always depend on us ❤️

I think it’s so sweet how Thimblefist and Homestlyle are taking such good care of Bea…. And how she’s trying reassure them that she’s ok. <3

Poor Beatrix’s face in the last panel.

Okay kitties and pooch…Its hero time. I am looking at all of you cats and the dog. Who is going to get the silly humans to go outside and see Bea in the tree? Elvis, you have proven you can get outside…Tommy of course you are a cat-about-town, Burt…you know your way around the old stone wall, and Tabitha…you are an Alpha-Female who caught the Red-Dot!.

One of you or some cat else needs to step up!

Don’t make the shoutmonk, Thimble-fist, come and find you!

“Trees are full of life” is just another iconic quote from BCN. One of them being “Boxes are never empty because they’re filled with adventure.” -Elvis

Thimblefist is a Shoutmonk!

Plug it into a spud!

Homestyle stands guard over the cat-child.

Nighttime again with a lovely, starry sky. Is this the second full night that Bea’s been up in that tree?

If only it were that simple to tap into the life that trees are full of, without harming them in the process. We could do away with more harmful energy sources.

Beatrix is in good hands.

hmmm….we never did get Shoutmunks tour shirts, did we (lookin’ at you, Georgia!) :)

It’s a good thing I know this will have a happy ending.

Now if only Bea’s phone existed in the people’s realm of BCN they would be able to trace her phone and find her!

Today is:

International Day for the Preservation of the Ozone —Ozone is an ironic substance. It’s negative effects on life are severe (even plant life), but it shields the earth from too much UV radiation. In low concentrations it is a good disinfectant for inanimate objects, and a good way to remove the odor of smoke. Some wonder why, if human activities produce ozone, it doesn’t replenish the ozone layer. The reason is that ozone is so reactive that it is rapidly consumed near ground level.

National Stay Away from Seattle Day —It’s probably raining there, anyway, which leads to—

Wrinkled Raincoat Day —Which is most days in Seattle.

National Collect Rocks Day —Some wonder that, being a geologist, I don’t have a rock collection. I don’t need one—rocks are everywhere. Rocks are also heavy, and transporting them can be difficult. Rumors that I used it as ammunition are entirely false and groundless …

National Guacamole Day —Most appropriately, it is also Mexican Independence Day. “Guac,” as it is often called in the States, sounds like a duck with a bad head cold. There are over 27 cultivars of avocado, some producing fruit the size of your head, with pits the size of the typical store-bought avocados. Such monsters make a lot of guac. Pass the chips.

World Play-Doh™ Day —Why does it smell so delicious? Because it’s mostly flour, water, and salt, and the smell is close to that of baking bread. I suspect a fair amount gets eaten by small children. For those with dietary restrictions, it now has less salt.

National Cinnamon Raisin Bread Day —Toasted and slathered with butter. Not recommended as an accompaniment for guac or avocado, but may work with Play-Doh™.

Homestyle on nightwatch duty.

So glad Beatrix is still okay.

TREES ARE FULL OF LIFE! lololollll

THIS IS THE WAY – I HAVE SPOKEN .. that’s the way I imagine Thimblefist speaking.

Beatrix is brave.

Did anyone notice the tiny touch of white in Homestyle’s eyes? Perfect for a squirrel’s slightly bulgy eyes.

How do you plug a phone into a tree unless the tree is really a cellphone tower that some idiot thought they could disguise by making it look like a tree.

Tiger update!

Someone got a picture of it!

Aaaaaand….it’s a bobcat.

One of the colony cats, Oliver, has been missing for over a week now. We think someone adopted him, but if they did, we wish that they would at least let us know. He’s a manx, so he won’t be grown up for a while longer. His mother, Jet, misses him very much. She tried washing one of the other cats. Ringsy was very tolerant of the washing, but she wants her baby back. The same thing happened with King. He’s been gone for over a couple of months. Again, if someone adopted him, at least let us know so we won’t worry about them.

Prayers and hugs for the Gulf Coast. If anyone hears from Bill Jackson in a sub-comment, please ask him to post a main comment so that we’ll know he’s okay. We’re thinking of you, Bill, and of everyone on the Gulf. xoxo

Ok this entire story line is giving me anxiety. I hope she’s down SOON!
