Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for November 18, 2020

But it’s so roasty toasty warm!

All words have been lost to me at the sight of that little Goldie tongue.

Not nobody! Not no-how!

Accidentally destroyed tart. Hahaha. I suppose Goldie’s arm slipped too close.

I see that Elvis is back to his traditional and necessary role as Supervisor.

They all look so pleased, supervising the making of more artisanal goodies! To destroy or not to destroy… to eat or not to eat…

Cat logic : If food moves, I pounces upon it.

Will all the problems of figuring out what to do about Thanksgiving meal. I’m only cooking for one person. The only thing that is solidly figured out… IS dessert! Pistachio Pudding with a sprinkle of more pistachios on top! ;)

OT: Me

There was no intent to destroy the tart, so the destruction was accidental.

“No one is allowed …” That won’t get you very far, Woman.

Goldie, licking her chops.

The battle begins…

and the girl is behind the fridge why???

OT. Yen

“Merely practice” for whom, the news staff or The Woman, or both?

So … what dessert or side dish is Puck dreaming most happily about?

Uh-oh. Lupin’s got his Hat of Adventure cocked over one ear. Let the fun begin.

Nilsson: Cocconut

The woman made a lovely tart

She put it on a shelf

Goldie went to investigate, she said to herself

“I need to check out the cranberries to see if they will bounce”

“I need to check out the cranberries to see if they will bounce”

“I need to check out the cranberries to see if they will bounce”

“I need to check out the cranberries to see if they will bounce”

“I need to check out the cranberries, I’ll knock this tart off of the shelf”

…….

She saw Lupin and Puck there on the floor

She said “Lupin and Puck, the tart’s no more!”

She saw Lupin and Puck there on the floor

She said “Lupin and Puck, the tart’s no more!”

…….

(Puck and Lupin) Now let me get this straight,

You went to check out the cranberries to see if they would bounce

You went to check out the cranberries to see if they would bounce

You went to check out the cranberries to see if they would bounce

You went to check out the cranberries to, investigative kitty!

…….

I went to check out the cranberries to see if they would bounce,

I went to check out the cranberries and they just sort of went splat,

I went to check out the cranberries to see if they would bounce,

I went to check out the cranberries and that’s the end of that!

…….

When the Woman comes around, she knows what she must do

When the Woman comes around, she knows what she must do

When the Woman comes around, she knows what she must do

When the Woman comes around, she knows what she must do….

i am canadien i had thanksgiving a month ago

Not allowed? We’re allowed everywhere!

But, we need to know if it bounces!!

As Bugs Bunny said, " They’re not in the STOVE !!! ". :)

“Accidentally destroyed”. Yeah, Lupin, that’s exactly what happened…

My first apartment had a gas stove with a pilot light. My little black cat loved to snoove on the stove top.

The stove is actually the only place in my apartment the cats aren’t allowed, because that scares me.

“Arty tart / la-de-da / can your part / ever get much sadder…” Thanks for putting Donovan’s “Lalena” into my head. That earworm will last all day.

bad kitties

I have a gas stove/oven, so I can control the temps better. The cats are only allowed up there if mice dare invade my kitchen. And when it’s not on :)

Panel three – now Puck, now’s your chance while Lupin and Elvis have diverted the Woman’s attention!

There are so many violations visible and forthcoming its hilarious.

If I could stick my paw in that tart

And spill it all over the range

Would it satisfy ya, would it slide on by ya

Would you think the cat’s deranged?

Ain’t she strange?

If I could spin it, if I could fling it

A big splat so divine

Would it be the end of your bleepin’ tart

Would I have to run and hide?

Run and hide?

I said I know I’m a rude little troll but I like it

I know, Cat bless my 9 souls, but I like it, like it, yes, I do

Oh, well, I like it, I like it, wanna spike it

I said can’t you see that this gold cat has been naughty?

If I could stick a knife in that tart

Cut it up right right on the stove

Would it be enough for that flaky crust

Would it help to ease the shove?

Cat above!

If I could dig down deep in the tart

Red juice would flow while you rage

Would it satisfy ya, would it slide on by ya

Would ya think the cat’s insane?

She’s insane

I said I know it’s fun to let it roll and I like it

I said I know you’d prefer that tart stay whole but I like it, like it, yes, I do

I like it, love it, yes I do

WARNING GEORGIA

Don’t forget the center oven rack this year!

The BCN Team is already on probation from the FCC (Feline Communication Commission) for the un-edited tirade from the election that went out over the air. :-)

A jaunty tilt to Lupin’s hat, Goldie concentrating so hard her tongue is sticking out…what a fun baking day!

Look at Goldie the last panel … “Uhhhhhh, YEAH! … PURELY ‘Accidental’!!” …

Suuure … We’ll go with that! ;)

Years ago my tortoise shell cat leapt onto a rocket hot oven door. I pushed her off almost instantly. Then upon finding her, she seemed OK with me touching her pads. She stayed clear of the range after that.

Goldie, the tart destroyer locks on. . .

Has anyone ever found that their first attempt was the best?

If the cats destroy another pie, they may find themselves in the attic with the other ghosts. Some things aren’t forgivable, even by the little ones.

Mark Twain noted the difference between a man and a cat. Once a cat steps on a hot stove lid, it will never get on a stove lid again, hot or cold.

Today is:

Mickey Mouse Day: Well, this has been a pretty Mickey Mouse year, frankly.

Princess Day: How can this be? We have no princesses in the US, at least not officially, though there are some who seem to think they are. Perhaps the British, who have too many, could lend us a few? The problem with “princess” is that it has almost become an epithet for pampered, spoiled, and essentially worthless, numerous fictional works not withstanding. Now if more real princesses were like Princess Leia, that would be different. Perhaps the problem with real princesses is that there aren’t enough scoundrels in their lives.

Apple Cider Day: Hard or Soft? The good thing about the “soft” is that it can become “hard.” I used to love cider, but now I prefer to bite the apple and suck it’s blood …

William Tell Day: He wasn’t an archer, he was a crossbowman. Hitting one’s target with a crossbow is essentially the same as with a flintlock rifle, so he was, indeed, an excellent marksman. Any projectile weapon requires far more skill than the uninitiated realize. However, expertise with a bow and arrow requires more skill and practice than any other except the sling. I’ve used them all to at least proficiency. So here’s a toast to all the other marksmen out there! Cider, of course. Note: Apples that have been shot, either as targets or projectiles, tend to be unappetizing.

Occult Day: Like I said, a mickey mouse day …

National Vichyssoise Day: Cold potato-leek soup. Can’t get any more mickey mouse than this. I can’t think of anything less appetizing, but still edible. Possibly the French, who invented wonderful French Onion Soup, wanted to balance the scale with dismal Vichyssoise. Gazpacho it ain’t

Push Button Phone Day: Okay, that we know what it’s hooked to and what it does, you can push that button … if you must.

Not allowed on the stove, huh? To steal a line from a time they were all on the dining room table (also not allowed): “What are the cats doing up there?” “Paying half the mortgage.”

They’re all ganging up, those pies don’t stand a chance. Lupin looks so dapper in his hat and suit.

Could be worse, the Man and the Robber Mice could be there watching too.

Baking with an audience!

To quote my great-grandmother, “Why are you in my kitchen?”

Goldie is ready for action.

Our Abby (RIP) was silent when she jumped up on the stove, but made a racket when she jumped down! No idea how she did that…

They couldn’t care less, Woman.

OT: Rejected

Toasty tootsies.

Love how Goldie’s reaching for the pie. And the girl is hiding around the corner of the table.
