Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for August 14, 2023

Who wouldn’t want to stare at Elvis? Seems reasonable enough to me.

At least they know cursive.

Rude sockets and rude moles! What it the world coming to?

I’m beginning to think Robin is right (just kidding, he’s always right)!

Picturing Elvis and an electrical socket having a staring match, I think the socket might blink first …

The moles are rude but nothing like the ever expanding family of woodchucks(groundhogs). Mle hills are nothing compared to the woodchuck mountains of dirt.

Oh, the horror! The rude moles are turning to graffiti on the lawn. Whatever will they resort to next? Emulating Banksy?

Elvis is on the case! The sockets are staring at me too! But Pucky has the scoop of the day with the rude, cursive writing moles!

First I missed Puck’s report on the break room, then I missed the report on the junk and hay in the barn. Now Elvis has a report on the electrical sockets and I missed that too. Did anyone record any of those reports?

At least they didn’t add, “Cats Drool”. So there’s that.

So Goldie and Bea are officially on an investigative report for now?

The Moles are in for a rude awakening.

Check out those angry eyebrows on poor Pucky!

Unmolievable!

I agree, Puck! It’s one thing to invade the raccoons’ territory, but being rude is absolutely uncalled for!

I hope Old Mag is ready to clobber those moles.

The moles are not just escalating, they are being obnoxious. They need to be smacked down. That and their leader needs his brain fixed.

I wonder how long Elvis has been sitting on that report.

Well, next Elvis will do a report on those 20amp, electrical sockets and why they are always winking!

Is the electrical socket like those portraits whose eyes follow you round the room? If so, you’re doomed.

Can you have a polite blitzkrieg?

So moles write in cursive, eh? They’re trickier than anyone thought. When is the new Beatrix book coming out?

ABBA: Fernando

Can you dig the field, Sir Monty? (Poetic License #0429)

I remember long ago another grassy field like this!

In a tunnel there, Sir Monty

You were humming to yourself and quietly planning our next dig

I could hear the distant humans and mowers coming from afar!

…….

Then the accident, Sir Monty

Every moment till you recovered seemed to last eternally!

I was so afraid, Sir Monty

We were young and making homes and planning to start our families,

And I’m not ashamed to say I feared for our leader mightily!

…….

There was something in the air that night,

The sky so right, Sir Monty!

Like a watercolor painting so beautiful

Life can be cruel, Sir Monty!

Though we do not understand,

We won’t forget!

Though we do not understand your plans,

Your commands we will follow!

……..

Now a year has passed, Sir Monty,

We attack the raccoons, cats, and anyone who’s in our way!

Why do you insist, Sir Monty?

Can’t we save the hostilities for another day?

Let’s put aside our differences and let us all be okay!

…….

There was something in the air that night,

The sky so right, Sir Monty!

Like a watercolor painting so beautiful

Life can be cruel, Sir Monty!

Though we do not understand,

We won’t forget!

Though we do not understand your plans,

Your commands we will follow!

Meanwhile, Back on the Nile

At the Former You Call That a Pyramid

Puckmosis: So you, Thomios, and Floof are going to go through all these cooking scrolls.

Beatrixia: Yes. There are so many classics here that we thought were lost.

Puck: Do you think these are part of the Library at Meowlexandria?

Bea: That’s the theory. Some of these may have been long forgotten. Like this one: Peg’s The I Never Did Like Cooking Scroll. And this one, Hello, Hints From Me.

Puck: Here come Thomios and Floof. How’s things?

Thomios: Going well. We have so much nonperishable food, we can make new recipes and ancient ones.

Floof: I’m working on a new curriculum for the Culinary School.

Bea: With so many new scrolls to catalog, I’m going to ask for help from the expert.

Puck: That must be Beaver Lee Cleary.

Then stick a plug in it!

Elvis, the socket will stare at you until you stick a plug in it. Those moles are getting worse and worse.

The first panel is the kind of reporting I look for in BCN.

Welcome to mole life

There’s no turning back

They are dug in deep

Being nasty creeps

Acting on their worst behaviour

Heinous crimes in fields of nature

Angry Montague wants to rule the world

It’s his own design

He has no remorse

There’s no place to hide

He will take away

All the freedom and the pleasure

Nothing to enjoy forever

Angry Montague – rude to rule the world

- Roland Orzabal / Ian Stanley / Chris Hughes – Everybody Wants to Rule the World – Tears For Fears

I wonder if one of the kits isn’t about to discover an important piece of junk in the barn, like what Princess Magazine was talking about last week.

OT: Scotia & Hitch…

It sits there…mocking him…waiting…

I am impressed by the moles’ skills and appalled by their rudeness simultaneously.

Outrageous! Those sinful moles really crossed the line.

Let’s let the moles be. Start another arc.

So now the yard is wholly moley …

Grounding electrical sockets are sinister agents of the deep state.

…I kinda want an interview with the electrical socket now.

Elvis should never travel to Europe — those sockets are even creepier!

Love Lupin’s sleepy eyes in the first panel!

Moles? Nopes. Nopes. Nopes. Why you little underground earthworms, you is incorrects. For obviously bears is rules. And keeps off me lawn and picanic grounds ya below ground level low lifes.

Somecat is gonna come out the other side of this with a new nickname to add to the ones we’ve heard recently: The Moleslayer!

I thought I made a comment early this morning. Either I forgot to click the button to post it, or it got swallowed up by a mole tunnel! Others have since made the same comment, so no use to post it again!

On the subject of moles, Google “Jasper Carrott – I’ve got this mole”. An old bit of stand up (1984), but still worth it.
