Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for January 04, 2025

More frizz than rizz.

OH MY CAT! We’re doing the magic soap opera aging bit now! My Bingo Card is almost full! I just need an evil twin and I win!

Clueless, too. Angora should call the exterminator to clean the mansion. Install new locks. Install Snowball in a portion of the building then walk it off for safety sake. Did I forget anythiing??

Typical soap opera timeline, toddlers and very young school age children are difficult to work with and to get to act properly, so they magically become tweens or teens overnight.

Or, so I’ve read. Somewhere. Not here. It must have been somewhere where they ridicule soap operas.

(Ahem) So, we obviously need the Grumbling Room for at least one more day. It is nice to see so many people with new wardrobes today. Nothing to do with the previous outfits no longer fitting due to a slight bit of overindulging at all the feasts here, of course. It is merely time for a change of clothes. That’s the official reason and we’re sticking to it.

However, since most of the new(ish) clothes seem to have a bit more room in them, the snacking tables are full again! (Funny how that happens!)

Quick, the villains need an alibi/excuse for being here.

I think they should kiss.

WAĹĹ IT OFF

Oh no! Gen Z slang! What will the Gen Alphas think?

I wonder if Officer Bandit has a canine partner who is trained in scent detection? It ’d be great if a uniformed black Lab showed up to give The Cad and Dr. Sue-Me a good sniff.

Thwart Snowball! Lock him up comfortably but securely.

Telekinetic teenagers of uncertain parentage?

Telekinetic teenagers! Now there’s a phrase to drive fear into any parents mind.

So cringe? Cringeworthy, maybe?

No rizz? No idea.

Bea finds new heartthrobs?

I miss Elvis.

Those are Princess’ teenagers. The tele kits belong to Paisley.

The kittens must have attended one of those Semester-at-Sea study abroad programs that rapidly ages children in soap operas.♥

Oh no, Teenagers!! Ahhhhh!! Those two, haven’t got a chance!

Uhh, what just happned? Please explain?

Villain toe beans. Hissqueee.

OT, final update

Are we doing to talk about the fact That Guy Brad admitted it was an “empty mall plan,” meaning it was intended to be a fraud all along?

What is worse than steenky soaps is steenky teenagers in steenky soaps. And one would theenks soaps is theengs supposed to helps makes ya less steenky. Not that me pay attention that is. But with this site usually under “heavy load” there ain’t much theengs to does around here these days. Me never gets who is them too many peoples who be accessing it always. For comics not even has so many readers these days.

[bro] omigod omigod omigod O MI GOD they said CRIIIIIIIIIIIIINGE I LOVE IT WHEN THIS SORTOF MEDIA SAYS CRINGE YEAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSS and they’re right brad has no rizz at all.

Memo to That Guy Brad and Dr. Mittens: framing Kit Chase by planting catnip on him didn’t work the first “X” number of times you tried it, why do you think it’s going to work this time?

A little OT here, but GC is having a brain fart. I came this morning and had 29 notifications!!! Four were new, the rest were all old, some were really old…what a mess. Not sure if they’re changing things or what, but boy howdie, that was just silly!

Wait, is cringe an adjective here, and not a verb?

Meanwhile, Back on the Nile, or Rhode Island, or Wherever

Violet: Nana Infinity! And Tash and Alice and Agnes Ata! Long time, no see!

Violet-Ifa: We heard you need help. When Beatrixia, Ora Zed, and Diana disappeared we figured out what happened when we saw the tear in Sophititi’s Space Time Fabric tapestry.

Beatrixia: How do we get back? Do you have any Space-Time Anemones?

Violet-Ifa: We came here through the Tapestry tear. I think I know where there might be a time travel portal nearby. These magical flowers are an indication.

Alizarin (Al): Us? But we’re just your ordinary sentient flowers.

Agnes-Ata: Even so. There is more magic in the ordinary than you can imagine. And I think I know a little bit about your history.

Tallie (Thalo): Really? Tell us more!

Robber Mouse Agnes: Awhile back, our friend Tommy came to Ancient Egypt through a stray Space-Time Anemone. Our ancient friends sent him back with a bucket of Blossoms of Blessing our friend Sophie planted hers right here.

Alice Robber Mouse: But isn’t it a bouquet?

Agnes: Maybe. But anyway, I think you three are Blossoms of Blessing, too.

Cade (Cadmium) Really? That’s awesome.

Beatrix: Has anyone seen the Oras?

Puck: I’ll find them.

Okay, now I’m confused. Time jump? Rizz?

Is the soap opera going to be over soon? I want to watch the news.

There’s actually a term for that phenomenon- SORA- Soap Opera Rapid Aging.

I like all the happy faces in panel four. It is good they are tying up the loose ends, even if it means returning to That Guy Brad.

Somebody please clue my poor elderly brain in: other than the fact that Brad wants to marry Angora for her money, what exactly do he and Dr. Mittens have against Kit?

Where is Elvis in this world of insanity? Shredding fitted sheets, probably.

Did anybody notice how happy Gutter is? And talking? Commenting on what is happening? I suspect things are looking up for him. (She smiles.)

I am reliably informed by people who were born well after I graduated from high school that “rizz” is analogous to “drip”.

.

(whisper whisper)

.

…no, don’t be silly. Of course they know what “drip” means.

OT: I’m bored

So I’m collecting random bits from the news. Apparently those born from 2025-2039 will be known as Gen Beta. Apparently now that we’ve used up the bottom half of the English alphabet, we’re going to start on the Greek alphabet. Not sure why we skipped alpha. I’m guessing it’s because “alpha” has a connotation of “top dog.”

If you want to see a funny video, do a search on woman+buck+security camera. It should lead you to confirmation that Canadian politeness extends to the wildlife.

Stephen King calls this soap opera rapid aging “The Kid Trick”.

Today is National Spaghetti Day, so guess what’s for dinner at my house on this cold (but sunny so far) day?

OMG GEORGIA ADDED BRAINROT

“No rizz at all” is such a cool line from a teenage cat.

That Guy Brad and Dr. Mittens should be shanghaied and keel-hauled.

Well, the teenager on the left has a fifty-fifty chance of being Sweetheart. But we haven’t spent enough time with Princess’ kittens to tell them apart. We can be sure the teenager on the right is a boy (a tommy-kitten?), though. We don’t even know which two boys are ginger and which is (mostly) white, like their mother (and grandmother).

This is the LAST comic that I expected would use the word “rizz”

Beatrix sighting.

Holmes & Watson – The Case Of The One Bridge Too Far

New York City, Six Years Before.

The orange cat ran effortlessly down the gangway at the Manhattan Cruise Terminal, weaving in and around people disembarking and making their way to customs. Ignoring startled comments from passengers who wondered if the cat had somehow escaped its owner, the orange cat ran out of the terminal and onto the shoulder of 12th Avenue, where he stopped. The skyline of New York dominated his view and beckoned him forward with an irresistible draw. Holmes was the happiest that he could ever remember. He was right where he needed to be as a detective. Catching a glimpse of the Empire State Building and triangulating his position, Holmes set off for Hells Kitchen. His future awaited.

what is that red spot in the last panel, at the bottom, next to Bea’s speech bubble? is Lupin wearing his fez?? (he really rocked it on Jan 10, 2017)

Georgia usually asks for our favorites that were new last yr to help her choose which strips she should submit for the Reuben award. i was only able to narrow it down to these 11. what’s on your list??
