Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for February 01, 2022

Another classic!

And of course it’s now EVERYWHERE! Mwhahahaha! ღƪ(ˆ◡ˆ)ʃ♡ƪ(ˆ◡ˆ)ʃ♪

Lupin, you’re not supposed to check on camera.

One of my all-time favorites! Elvis is going to need another mug of that coffee to deal with this.

I love the detail that Lupin often holds his coffee mug with both paws, and indeed there is paint on both sides of the mug!

Elvis’s expression and implied tone here still crack me up. Living with a Cat Of Adventure, summed up in one expression!

Painted toe beans!

“Someone” does, indeed, have paint on their paws.

The walls are doomed.

And yet he didn’t get paint on Captain Crusty there…

Toe beans in green paint.

A moment of paws. And then we resume.

OT: Gong Hei Fat Choy!

Caught green-pawed!

Oh, Lupin. You won’t be able to go invisible like that!

toe beans <3

When I was painting the bathroom in our old house, Esmeralda got paint oh her paw. She was a curious little Torti. Now she’s crossed the bridge, I wish I’d kept one of the paw prints.

I love the first look of concern, then both shock and realization! And Elvis…nuff’ said!

Is this the result of Beatrix accidentally giving Lupin a regular coffee instead of a de-caf? Oh well, live and learn Bea!

Hello! “Someone has paint on their paws” while he’s looking up at the ceiling…

Time to flip your BCN calendars to February for Goldie toe beans and the “mythical” mailman.

Oh, such a sloppy cat!

The paint on his paws matches the color of “someone’s” eyes.

The paw prints liven up the background.

Another good one! I wonder if they will show multiple from this little saga or leave this to remind those who know of Lupin’s adventures and exploits. For many of us, “someone has paint on their paws,” is all we need.

Let’s hope it is water-based paint!

It’s hard to report the news, when you are the news.

Green is the colour of his paws

Quickness of the dye’s dry causes the flaws

Unnerving are the tracks between the

Newsroom and the bed…

I love how the paint is the same color as Lupin’s eyes. Didn’t notice that the first time.

Wait, is this Lupin Week?

Georgia posted once that this almost happened. She was painting a piece of furniture and Lupin leapt in. The difference between comic and real life is she managed to grab him before he ran through the house. One of my multitude of reasons I admire her is the way she takes something so minor and turns it into a brilliant piece of comedy.

I sooo personally relate to all the emotions in panel two. Been there. Still go there.

And yes I broke my “How bad can it be?” Lupin mug – because not every cup survives a drop into the sink. :(

OT: But it’s about cats. https://nypost.com/2022/01/03/why-cats-are-cozying-up-to-elon-musks-starlink-satellites/

I like that shade of green. Maybe it’d be easier to paint the walls to match, even though with watercolor a little dry edge would still show.

On a related note, the Color Marketing Group, a professional forecasting organization, forecast this color for the Asian market two years ago:

Had a kitten once that walked through my paint tray and then ran all around the house. Luckily, no carpet was involved.

I love the way Georgia has drawn the look of dismay on Lupin’s sweet face in the second panel.

Ah, great Lupin moments all painted in green!

“I don’t know why I do these things!”

Lupin h-how could u?! MY POOR WALLS!!!!!!!!

Ah, I do fondly remember Lupin’s “green period” when he set out to make his mark on the world. :)

I admire Lupin’s correct usage of the gender-neutral “their” for an unknown subject even though, at the time, there were no female suspects in the apartment.

(Would’ve been a twist if it’d been Tabitha, “the Stealth Pranker”, painting pawprints on walls, but less funny overall.)

Lupin is such an amazing character. He’s so cute and funny. He is always a joy to see in the comics. 9/10

Nothing to joke about. Cats can die from ingesting paint when they try to clean the paint off their paws.

The worst thing is the humans have real proof on walls and ceilings that a cat can defy gravity. Before, it was just an old wives’ tale. Let’s hope there’s no evidence of him walking THROUGH a wall. That could destroy the time and space continuum.

Yay !…. It’s Lupin Week…..Yaaaayyy…. !!!

I think the last week of January should always be Lupin Week from now on…Anyone agree?….

More gold-pressed Lupinium!

Is that a faint green smudge on the CN card on Elvis’ mic, or just shading?

Totally ON Topic, my local animal welfare just reported over $9,000 from the Betty White Challenge.

Nice to see some Lupin highlights. RIP!

I don’t know how the paint got there.

Traditional

Alas, dear cat you do us wrong

To smear the walls so discourteously

For these walls have been so very white

And now paw prints all over we do see!

…….

Green paint throughout the house

Green paint on walls and floor

Green paint in the shape of paws

Green paint here forevermore!

…….

As Lupin stands there all appalled (apawed?)

And Elvis his displeasure shows

We wonder where dear Puck might be,

And whether the Man and Woman know?

…….

Green paint throughout the house

Green paint on walls and floor

Green paint in the shape of paws

Green paint here forevermore!

It’s fine, just shake your paws between steps as you walk, Lupin.

The walls are now green with….. Wait, can walls even feel envy?

Lupin’s brilliance shall never fade. For he is everGreen.

And that’s what happens when you give Lupin caffeine and he runs through paint…..

Breaking news….Iggy makes an appearance on Georgia’s Insta. Here is the Dumpor link

Happy Lunar New Year all!

I will ask again. Someone send me the link to Goldie’s first appearance! Also, this is a rerun

This is a rerun.But a funny rerun

This is one of the many strips that I shared with my cat-loving parents when I first discovered BCN. Really bring me back anda great tribute to Loopy Lupin.
