Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for March 05, 2025

Ha! It was Drumstick playing the role of Burt!

Oh Ora Zella…..Enjoy your youth while it lasts. You have SO much to learn.

OT: Wicket

Mystery solved! Burt is innocent!

I hope he’s having a nice nap in the sun rather than, for example, currently besieged in the tech closet by a mob of raccoon kits.

Wake up, Burt.

Perhaps the kits would like to do a bit of the easy grown up work involved in preparing for the next bit of beautiful Queensland weather.

Very OT

In the last panel, I first thought the cup (and handle) spelled END. Must be time for new spectacles. 0-0

Ah, but she hasn’t done it for very long, nor very often.

Heya, Drumstick! Is OZ about to wake everybody up with a plummeting mug?

Silly pointy-tailed kittens!

It’d be fun if all the kittens and kits got together for a slumber party. Well, maybe a rumble party since raccoons are nocturnal. I can see Ora Zella on the loose, tipping over trash cans, and learning to make a chainsaw from scratch, with the help of Big Uncle Gutter.

I have a t-shirt that reads, “co-workers are a lot like Christmas lights. Half of them don’t work, and the other half aren’t that bright.”

OMC – I want that last panel on a mug.

Ora Zella Toe Beans!

Well, nothing could possibly go wrong with THIS plan!

Meanwhile, Back on the Nile

At Elvis’ Office

Beatrixia: Iggy! Come and try the donuts.

Iggy: The Getting Better Kittens are going to do one of my songs from my Donut Opera in Fifty Acts.

Bea: Brilliant. I don’t know how you find the time.

At the Royal Dining Room

Queen Catshepsut the Golden: Welcome, Royal Court! It gives me great pleasure to introduce Thomios’ Cinnamon Cider Donuts. Enjoy, one and all.

Puckmosis: I taste cinnamon and a few other plural spice.

Thomios: Yes. I used a lot of the apple pie spice plurals in the recipe.

Elvis: I love the decorations.

Sophititi: Yes. Arachna created apple spiders with found objects.

Puck: Where is she?

Soph: The locusts had a plague scheduled so she went to make nommy nom spider treats. Made from sustainable locust plagues.

Enter Lupinium and the Getting Better Kittens

Lupinium: And now for the entertainment! The Getting Better Kittens will perform a song from Iggy’s Opera in 50 Acts!

Thomios brings in a tray of treats

With many dozens to go

Is no sound but giggling in back

Procurers all set to go

Are you ready? Are you ready for this?

Donuts with spice galore

Out from the kitchen all fresh piping hot

Everyone clamors for more

Another one eats the treat

Another one eats the treat

And the donuts are gone

And the donuts are gone

And another one eats the treat

I’m gonna eat a whole dozen or more

As another one eats the treat!

Sorry, kids, taxes are NOT fun unless you are getting a refund!

This breaking kitten news is actually comic gold! Who agrees with me?

Huh! Drumstick’s got Burt’s sass down pat then, because he sure had me fooled up to now!

Oh Sweetie- taxes are not fun!

Ah so it is Drumstick, not Burt, running the feed. Good job!

Ok, adults…raise your hand, if you agree with Oz. (Holding my hand waaaay up!)

Science Fact of the Day

The use of the TV station and equipment without the permission of the owners is likely a violation of the station’s FCC license, and the station would have to pay the penalty of $500 for each day of the violation($1500 now).

so it WAS drumstick with the feed.

I LOVE Breaking Kitten News :)

Is Drumstick wearing a colander on his head?

Great, BKN sounds just like the student run announcements back in school.

The arc this week is bringing me so many smiles. Thank you, Georgia!

They are! I love doing them.

Oh, if only it were so.

I wouldn’t mind a whole month of Breaking Kitten News. Great stuff!

I’m sorry to be the stick in the mud, but I still like Breaking Smol Cat News. The ‘smol’ would be written above and inserted w/a carrot. Also, I believe there was a sign at the door to the Monday Night Football control truck that read, “Never allow raccoons to operate this equipment” . Raccoons should not be operators!! Except in live theater, where their ability to reach ANY problem anywhere and sometimes even fix it, outweighs their tendency to modify the agreed upon content.

I need more kitten news. What’s local book store kitten doing these days.

… Taxes? Oh yeah. Oodles of fun, guys. If I ever go back into business, you can come and do mine.

Yay, Drumstick!
