Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for April 15, 2021

“It’s magic. Everyone knows that.” – me, after the water went out citywide during the Texas snowpocalypse this February.

The “Metal Snake that Pukes Water”, eh? Good enough name for me! :D Both accurate and descriptive. ;)

Will she figure out the connection between water and the laundry basket?

OT – prayers and good thoughts please

Water you doing, Elvis? Everybody knows what is water.

In Britain we’d call this Goldie ’tap’ping into expert knowledge.

That could be a great band name these days.

Elvis toe beans/paw pad and Goldie toe beans/paw pad! Fur coordinating ones!

No, Elvis. That’s not what it is. You gots to tap into a proper knowledge base for what it really is.

From the Sons of the Pioneers: Cool, Clear Water

Discovered the sink has a place to drink

A snake that pukes water,

Cool water!

…….

Elvis lets Goldie know

Of the metal snake that shows

Where the water all flows, yes water

Cool, clear water!

…….

Nothing like a dish that answers my wish

A bowl of kibble and water,

Cool water!

Cool, clear, water!

Goldie is really going about her new Environment, learning as much as she can from the locals.

Of course, some of the local knowledge is superstition or folk tales without substantiation.

Hopefully Goldie will be able to separate the reality from the Elvis.

I work in the plumbing industry. I may have to use Goldie’s description at some point.

Gross. Everyone knows It’s called Farrah.

Need to get Beatrix to research on that question.

Breaking Cat News: The Game now has a new game!

Breaking Cat News: Cats Of Adventure

A mental snake that pukes water? XXXXXXDDDDDDDDDD lol

BREAKING NEWS: Yesterday my cat that normally hates me gave me some love! I held out my hand and she walked up, let me pet her, and even gave me some love.

A little knowledge will prove to be a dangerous thing, methinks.

poem ’bout the comic:

“where does water come from?”

“the snake in the bathroom of course!”

“you can’t be that dumb!”

“well I could be worse…”

“ahem! you think it pukes water?”

" well it does!"

“ok mr lie-talker!”

“well because, because…”

" its a small fountain not a snake!"

“that’s what I SAID!!”

“I need a break!”

“yes lets go to bed…”

Am I the only one that thinks that looks more like a bathroom mirror on the wall, therefore making this a bathroom “snake that pukes water” rather than a kitchen one?

Many cats are fascinated by moving water. In the wild, moving water is always fresher. I had one cat who would go so far as to push on the water bowl to get the water sloshing around.

Seems to me that just calling it the “small fountain in the kitchen” would be the simpler and more efficient name. It at least uses less syllables.

All cats are determined to understand The Riddle of the Sinks.

Several of my cats over the years have loved the faucet. They would stand there and demand I turn it on. They never learned to turn it off. Now I have a “fancy fountain” that runs all the time for Zoe. It’s a big hit.

Goldie’s enthusiasm is delightful.

Anyone else have problems with GoComics loading today? Or was it just my bad internet?

Two of my cats, Turbo and Peekaboo, loved drinking from the kitchen faucet and never seemed to mind the water running over their faces. When Turbo got lymphoma, I got a fancy fountain so he wouldn’t have to jump up to the counter and demand drinks. He adored “his” fountain, as did Peekaboo. And it is still in use by their younger “siblings” today.

OMC! Those facial expressions are genius.

And on hot days, the sink makes a cool comfortable place to sleep.

We adopted Son 1 and DIL’s beloved cat when they moved and exceeded the pet limit. (notice: we will not give her back!). Cat lived in an apt with 2 dogs so Son put the litter box and food in a gated off bathroom along with a cat water fountain. Cat. Could jump the gate but thought of the bath as " her" space. She now thinks of our bathroom as her space although its not gated and she shares litter boxes food in another room with 3 more cats and a dog. But she LOVES the bathroom faucet and frequently asks me to go in and turn the water on for her. No human can use the room without her company and the faucet running. She is adorable.

OT but kinda funny

Dear lim95, Welcome to BCN and the Orb. Its hard to believe you are 12, but then again my Son 1 is a genius too and showed it well before 12.. I must hope you have Georgia dunn’s permission to work on a BCN game, so I will proceed from that premise. Congratulations on being a cat lover!!! You will find many kindred spirits here although not too many age mates. So PLEASE make your game easy for us non technical people to play. I read your requests for colleagues with certain program experience. My technical level requires me to ask you to translate your requests into English, which is my first language; and I was considered a genius in my time too. Or as Son 1 once exclaimed, " Mom, you are a girl nerd!". So please don’t leave us non technical BCN fans in the dust after you perfect your game. Thanks! Looking forward to playing it.

Hmm…I thought it was called a Sound Example of Service to Cats.

Congrats, Georgia. This make me literally laugh out loud in a crowded restaurant!

My furry butts have had their own fountain on the vanity for years. They love it. When I break it down to clean it I get dirty looks until it goes back into service.

BEWARE!! Gocomics is at it again!! First I get replies and likes from years ago and then every reply is gone all of a sudden. BEWARE!!

Goldie’s face in panel two tho

I am new to the orb but i have been reading this since November 2020 i just never commented

Bet Goldie’s charts will be much more like Puck’s charts than Elvis’s charts.

Elbiff you seem so chuffed that you know something Goldie does not.

I’ll never see drawing water to cook potatoes in again. YECH!!!! And COFFEE…!!!!!

And when the water comes out, you can bat it with your paw!

Yeah, that sounds about right.

O.T. Synchronous Fireflies

LOL!!
