Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for March 19, 2023

Kitty Katz, there’s your cue…

…..and all the toebean addicts said……

Sweet, Mysterious, TOEBEAN Showing Iggy. Now with SHOW TUNES! And I love Pucky’s Chocolate Toebeans! And Goldie makes three! It’s a Toebean Sunday!

Elvis, not a fan of showtimes or is it Andrew Lloyd Weber you don’t like? I heard he is writing Trey’s Coronation ditty.

How fun to have Iggy showcased!! He’s a playful kitty. Loved the wave to Puck from behind the couch and Puck’s little wave back.

Okay, the song made me laugh.

Don’t let him get inside your mind, Elvis!

Sunday Funday

He has embraced his mask marking.❤️

Little cat has a phantom face

SOFAr, so good,…today it seems not only to be a day of the sofa phantom but also for the toebean fandom…

Oh, thanks, Iggy. Now I’ve had to track down a song and listen to it.

The Iggy of mystery.

BoCH alert! (Back of Cat Head.)

Oh no, now I’ll have “Phantom of the Opera” tunes in my head for days again. When my granddaughter and I saw “The Phantom” in December it was weeks before I got the music out of my head or out of my mind. LOL

Seeing three sets of toe beans…breaking out the noise canceling head phones…

The Phantom of The Sofa Opera eh.

Iggy’s little waves delight me every time.♥

I love that Iggy is singing anything. We singers should stick together.

Love the Phantom of the Opera reference! When Iggy sings his songs of his people – is he a boy soprano or has his voice settled into maybe a tenor? I do like Iggy so much. 8)

OT: St. Catty’s Day dinner

RINGO AWARD NOMINATIONS ARE OPEN!!!! NOMINATE GEORGIA AND BCN! https://ringoawards.com/

So instead of “the songs of his people” Iggy sings “the showtunes of his people” ?

I love Elvis glowering in the last panel. I am 99.9% certain this is something the real Iggy actually does!

Iggy is such a cutie! Love his little fangs. <3

I said when we first saw Iggy that he looked like he was wearing a Phantom mask! PotO is my favorite of all time. I am not ashamed in the least to say I’ve seen it at least 50 times and listen to the music several times a week so what a treat to see it referenced here with Iggy! Thank you, Georgia :)

Here it is: Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Phantom of the Opera

Behind the Big Red Couch

I hear the song

That voice mysterious

Quiet yet strong!

And do I see a paw,

With toe beans cute?

The Phantom of the Sofa is there!

It’s all too true!

…….

Turn back around and look

Behind the chair (poetic license)

A shadow did you see?

But no one’s there!

And though you turn again

To glance behind!

The Phantom of the Sofa isn’t there!

What do we find?

…….

(He’s there, the Phantom of the Sofa!)

(Beware, the Phantom of the Sofa!)

…….

Those who have seen you wave

All sigh with glee!

At the sight of cute toe beans

A massive Squeeee!

We all do realize this story line

Of the Phantom of the Sofa is fiction!

But it’s all fine!

…….

Sing, sweet Angel of Cuteness!

Meow, meow, meow, meow!

Purr, Purr, meow!

Wave and smile!

Meow, meow, meow, meow!

Purr, Purr, meow!

Sing and wave!

We all love thee!

Panels 6 & 7, the little waves. So cute!

Beautiful strip today! Iggy is adorable, and Elvis is back to his grumpy self!

OFF TOPIC: Friends, I need a favour. My new phone dumped all my contacts. Could those of you who are Facebook friends with me send me a friend request? Requests from new friends will also be welcome.

RSO waving TBs!!

Well, he does have the mask!

Peak a boo! I see you and your lovely fangs. I hope you don’t ever grow out of them.

OMG! Ziggy is me!

…And some cats seek privacy while they work on their schemes to conquer the world!

To be fair, the Phantom of the Opera does have some pretty good songs…

OT: Yes, it is what you think it is….

I was already thinking Phantom before the last panel. I would love to cultivate an air of mystery myself, but I ruin it by talking too much.

Just keep him away from the chandelier! :)

So I have two questions; one is Iggy going to sing the entire soundtrack of The Phantom of the Opera or just the ones with Erik? and two, when he’s done, what will he sing next… maybe the entire soundtrack of The Rocky Horror Picture Show?

That little wave, I am dead of cute. Hi buddy!

From The Phantom of the Sofa:

" And Snuggle in the Cushions – in the Night! " … :)

Him waving at Puck is too precious for words.

An earworm of astonishing power…

Phantom of the sofa! I love it!

(We once named a kitty Eric because it looked like it was wearing a half mask.)

How is he supposed to pop out at people if he doesn’t mysteriously lurk first?

Andrew Lloyd Weber? Surely cats have better taste than that. Do some Sondheim, for pity’s sake!

Haha, aw. Iggy’s michiveous face is so cute. Is he the one who’s singing? And why does that make Elvis mad? Iggy and Puck waving at each other is so sweet as well

In one of Russell Hoban’s Frances the badger books Frances and a friend are talking about little sisters. One says “When they hide when you’re playing Hide and Seek parts of them always stick out.”

Adorable! I love it

My new avatar is my demon spawn kitten, Update. She has a thing for ankles as can be seen by the scabs on my ankles. I mean, I should have suspected something when I first saw that she has a pitchfork on her forehead.

Ah, so Iggy is afraid of Elvis but not so of Puck (look at that adorable little wave behind the couch when Puck asks to see him). And he’s practicing for his Broadway debut.
