Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for February 28, 2023

Looks like Tusslemania is coming early this year.

We may see some rather uncivil behavior here…

See? “God” is even in the title of their pose. Proof of yesterday’s thread!

angry, but adorable TOE BEANS! I think it’s more like Godzilla versus Gamera! cue the bad voice dubbing!

Now, now, Lupin. “Ladies first” is good manners. Sticking your tongue out is not.

They remind me of red pandas!!

Irresistible force meet immovable object. The only question is which is which.

Puck has a David Attenborough vibe goin’ on here! … :)

Not sure if this is the first, now colorized version of this cartoon, following emiasty’s lead:

Swatting begins!

Very cute back paw there..

Lupin has that pose down pat. He and the boy destroyed ‘Tokyo’ some time ago. LOL

Goldie-(Mouth moving, but out of sync) Ha! You will not defeat me! HIIIIIISSSSSIST!! Lupin-(Mouth moving, but sound is too fast) No! I WILL defeat you! Ha! MERRROWRRRR!!

Naughty cats! No swearing!

That’s what we call growling and hissing here at home. I guess we’re lucky in that we seldom have our furkids swearing.

Maybe we’ll get some Wuxia wire-work action.

I just love her little descriptions like SPIT and Growl

As rear toe beans have become a delightfully common sighting, I propose more specificity be required of our champion spotters, such as RSOIYFRTB […In Your Face…], RSORTBOG […On Glass], and today’s example, RSORAFTBITSF [Rare Sighting of Rear and Front Toe Beans In The Same Figure]. Orbsters may submit examples as they appear in print or from the archives. I’ve preemptively shredded scaeva’s submission form so as to avoid his snark.

I was right! Freeze tag combat! By the way, I was completely unable to find that strip if anyone knows which it is. Meanwhile, Lupin, it is a bit at odds with “ladies first,” if you’re just going to spit at her. Then again, that’s just what a frenemy would do.

Coming Soon To a Theater Near You

They were in the kitchen!

No one wanted to be the first to leave!

No food would be prepared!

Strange sounds emanated from the kitchen!

Who would win this stalemate!

Find out in Catzilla versus Fluffapurris Rex!

Watch it if you dare!

OT: Albert Day

Up next, breaking news: No-No Spray Deployed! By-standers are warned to avoid the area! Stay tuned for further updates.

That’s our house with Oliver & Felix. The area of contention being the top step of the stairs.

BCN has made it over 15,000 followers on GoComics. It was at 14,999 yesterday when I checked and today it is at 15,010, right now. I have seen it go down before 1 or 2, but I think it is pretty safely at the 15,000 mark. I am a bit of a nerd so I keep track of the number of followers most days. I am not quite nerdy enough to actually keep track of dates, I just write the amount down in the margins of the notebook I use at work. I only write it down if it goes up. There have been a few rare times when it has gone down, like I said, I don’t record that. I started using this notebook shortly after I started to work from home because of COVID. I didn’t start writing down the numbers right away, but the first one I did write down was 11,924, which would have been a little less than 3 years ago.

Three times I tried to type a comment, and three times Smudge turned off my laptop. The little…rascal…had the gall to look me in the eye and smirk when he did it. Ah well, gotta love him.

Me has seen male cat do that pose towards another male cat.

Today’s “One Big Happy” on GoComics reminds me of how the idea for BCN started!

The Seattle Times is asking for suggestions for a strip to replace Dilbert. If you want to suggest BCN, their email is editorfeedback@seattletimes.com.

Politeness honed to the point of weaponization: The preferred battle implement of Brits and Southern debutantes.

Are the rectangles below Goldie and Lupin in panels 2 and 4 showing the level of their propensity to attack?

WARNING: Deployment of death blades imminent! =snikt= #MurderMittens #BunnyKicksOfDoom

Love Lupin’s little tongue stuck out! Love toe beans! Squeeeee!

Code The Enforcer’s comment about David Attenborough made me think of MythBusters and Adam imitating him (David Attenborough, NOT Code the Enforcer ); which got me thinking. My poor memory prevents me from remembering if an Orbster has already suggested this.

Wouldn’t it be cool if a Sunday strip depicted the crew of cats and friends doing an episode of MythBusters ( or maybe call it Tale-Busters)? And just like in the world of BCN, all these great people live on. Possible casting choices:

Narrator Robert Lee – Puck

Jamie Hyneman – Elvis

Adam Savage – Tommy

Tory Belleci – Lupin

Kari Byron – Goldie

Grant Imahara – Burt

Jessi Combs – Tabitha

Scottie Chapman (can’t forget one of the original “Build Team” ) – Sophie

Mythtern Jess – Beatrix

New Mythtern – Iggy

Frank Doyle – Trevor

Sgt. JD Nelson – Sir Figaro Newton

Alterations / suggestions are welcome!

This all reminds me of the drivers in a certain neighborhood in a certain west coast city.

Godzilla Pose kills me. Strips like this feel like Gerogia just describing things her own cats do and i’m here for it.

“Godzilla Pose.” Wah-ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Georgia is brilliant.

Cat sumo!

Absolutely LOVE Godzilla pose!

This reminds me of my kids at home!

The last panel reminds me of a sound on the Mac called “moof.” It’s still available, and I use it with the small timer app I finally found to tell me to get up and “MOOOOFFF!” every hour.

Uh-oh – escalation!

I believe the phrase is “its on like donkey kong”

Iggy looks up to Lupin? Maybe Iggy oughta join Ora Z in looking up to Puck.

Kids and cats……same sibling rivalries…..

OOOHHHH, he’s sticking out his tongue and she’s showing her fangs!! and such a deep growl too.

I loved todays comic! Go Georgia Dunn!

Not really OT: Wikipedia

Who passed gas with those crazy furballs ?

ALL TOO TRUE. It takes all my strength to keep from laughing when I see this.
