        Please, please, please keep her Georgia, at least tell us she’ll visit as intern.

        Kittens are so cute that I would never sell one, especially those who are used to you.

          However, breaking cat news will be a local cat news
          The ceiling cats, the barn cats, Tommy, Beatrix.
          If she goes at least give her a microphone and a camera.

    Now we finally know where the Woman gets most of her plants from! Isn’t it wonderful to have a friend with a green thumb? Does this mean Beatrix has green paws?

    Some of you already know, but if you don’t, Breaking Cat News’ first book is coming out on May 10th!!! I have added buttons to the right of this page where folks can pre-order their copies, if they wish! I am terribly excited about this, and hope you are too!

    I have never in my life of loving comics seen such appealing characters so sweetly drawn and painted. It brings tears to my eyes, at this time when everyone in the news seems so odious. Life is simple when we know that there is only time for love and sharing and kindness. You are truly my hero ,Georgia Dunn.

    I already placed a pre-order in for your book Georgia and can’t wait for it. I would love to see some more of Beatrix’s adventures with the boys, but every real bookstore needs a cat. I’m sure Burt can set up a CN affiliate in the bookstore, where there are plenty of shelves for Beatrix to climb on.

      Especially a secondhand bookstore. I’ve been saying for years: “The mark of a good used book store is chairs everywhere so you can sit down and leaf through what you’ve found; the mark of a *great* used book store is that *some* of those chairs are unavailable because there are cats sleeping on them.”

        Nippy likes to greet the music students when they come to lessons. When someone comes up the driveway, “meow,meow” to alert me there’s someone there. Then he smells everything (feet, cases, coats) thoroughly. We tell everyone that all visitors get a CAT scan!

    As soon as I saw Bea greeting the visitor I knew where Bea’d be moving off to. I KNOW she’s gonna have a great home, but dangit, I wanted her to stay with the boys! Let’s see…close enough to the farm for Mouse to visit (and can’t wait to see Baba Mouse meet Kitten Bea) and someone in residence named “Trevor” who might not approve a cat. Will Beatrix be moving in with the doggie we met a few days back?

    I know some folks are already very worried that we will be losing Beatrix in the comic… I don’t want to give spoilers… But we’re all sort of “fostering” her character together here and on this ride together, so I do want to say I think folks will enjoy where this goes. I hope so, anyway.

      Thanks for the reassurance that Beatrix will be fostered for a while still and that you’ve got a plan laid out for our favourite little fuzzy polydactyl. That kind of sounds like she’s a dinosaur though a cute fuzzy one! 😀

      I should’ve just trusted you to begin with, Georgia. You’ve never ever let us down or failed us before and I know you won’t this time either! Besides, this is YOUR story and we’re along for the fun-filled ride but we’re not the writers. I guess I had a gut reaction ’cause it sort of feels like that sweet baby’s mine a little too.

    Ann, is what you are getting at is that you think Trevor is the dog we met? That hadn’t dawned on me until I read your post. Now I’m almost certain of it.
    It’s clear the woman who owns the bookstore lives nearby. Even if she becomes Beatrix’s human, the boys would still see her all the time.

    Beatrix is the busiest little creature I ever did see! She is so outgoing she would make an excellent bookstore cat because she is such a meet and greeter. It certainly makes sense that Trevor could be the Dog that Bea gave the cup of Earl Grey tea too a few days ago. All kinds of possibilities that expand the BCN world!

      She’d definitely be the gardening expert. Sophie would easily be the literature expert if only she’d take her nose out of a book long enough to say more than “Not now, Thomas”! (Although there was that bit with the refrigerator magnets, so Sophie might be the Eye on Art.)

    “Someone at the door,Drop to the floor!”Good advice, Puck! We have Fancy Dancer,who is our Watchcat. When there is a delivery or anyone approaches our house in the driveway, Fancy will start mumbling as she goes from window to window alerting us that a stranger is near. Usually the postman or a FedEx delivery. We and Fancy eagerly await the arrival of the BCN book which we have just pre-ordered! Of course, Fancy will alert us the moment the delivery person comes!

        Do you have a local independent bookshop? If they ship orders out of town we could order it from them, and when they get the books from their distributor you could add your signature before the individual customer orders go out. It’s not as thematically elegant as a donation to a shelter, but I’m a big fan of supporting independent booksellers too!

    Oh No! The boys would be devastated to lose their clever little intern. Perhaps I am internalizing our recent loss of the 17 year old Bat Cat whose demise was greatly softened by the adoption of Mr. Whiskers … the DOA kitten that came into the shelter late last fall. I decided he had to come home and spend some time with Bat before the end. He and our German Shepard have become fast friends. Anyway Georgia, I truly hope we continue to have Beatrix in BCN even if she (understandably) in real life goes to a new home. Thank you for making so many days brighter.

    OH MY CAT! Don’t I wish that my two would hit the floor when visitors come by. The other day we had the cable guy in and both Fido and O’Malley had to ‘supervise’ every move. Up close and personal, if you get my drift. I finally had to snag them and shut the bedroom door. And let me tell you, when they were released, did I ever get the tail swishes…
    Book is pre-ordered, and I’ll also add my name to whatever it takes for the autograph (some nice SoCal lo-Cal…)

    Ok, ok, I think I see where you’re going, and I’m really excited to see it play out.

      Me too if Trevor is who I think he is – a perfect match! He’ll have too much fun to worry about snakes – who knows – Beatrix may even teach him to like them. And she’ll be keeping track of the boys – she can sneak in and out of the pink house (seemingly) without detection. At first I was thinking ‘nope, nope, nope’ but now I’m thinking ‘hope, hope, hope.

    I love Beatrix’s faces of wide-eyed kittenish exuberance! She’s interested in everything and in charge of everything at once. So much to do!

    My other comment didn’t post: Mippy likes to greet the students when they come in, and meows when they come up the driveway to alert me. Then he thoroughly sniffs feet, shoes, cases, coats. We tell people that everyone who comes in gets a CAT scan

    I love Puck’s recommendation “someone at the door, drop to the floor”. Sort of along the lines of the PSA about vacuums: “if it’s not a broom, leave the room”. So, will we get a PSA about doors and visitors?

    As a bookseller who works in a shop proudly graced by feline presence, I agree that Beatrix would make a fantastic bookstore cat!

    “ancient little grey cat”? Baba Mouse I presume? I reconciled myself from the beginning that Beatrix wouldn’t be around forever but hope for frequent guest appearances. She can be the correspondent for the book store! And am hopeful that Trevor is her new dog friend.

    I think Beatrix is a great deal like Tillie must have been as a kitten. I expect great things from her.

    In panel two, I imagine “everybody do the dinosaur’ after the text. Though I didn’t know dinosaurs hid under the bed. Thanks for that.

    I hope you keep Beatrix in the Breaking Cat News Room Georgia.
    As she is a a Maine Coon Cat/Norwegian Forest Cat I think she
    deserves a place in the CN newsroom offices.

    Hard working Interns eventually are lucky enough sometimes become members of the “firm”.

    I love Norwegian Forest Cats and Maine Coon Cats, many folks have said they are one and the same. My wife mentioned that Marie Antionette was responsible for the Maine Coone Cat coming to the colonies before she met her end during the French revolution which was also known as “The Terrors”.

    So the husband and I are having a debate about Beatrix pawses. I’m insisting she’s got dual thumbs on her forepaws, and six little jellybean toes, he says five and one bulky thumb each. This strip gave us the best view but he’s still unconvinced. Is there an official count?

      Not yet! I draw as many as I can squeeze in… And any extras may be lost in the fluff. 😀

    I love all the little details in every strip, like Beatrix having to hand Lupin a bulletin about the doorbell because he’s deaf and can’t hear it himself. I can read the strip several times and catch a something new each time. Every strip is so well though out!

    Wandered in to check if 3/11/16’s strip was posted yet, west coast time frustrates me, but better Breaking Cat News late than never. Anyhow, I reread last Friday’s strip and the reread April 1st strip. If “The Dog” is “Trevor” I believe Beatrix has found a forever home. 😉

    Bottom half of this comic will not load, whether I approach it from the e-mail, or from further back in the episode queue. Please put Beatrix on this, as she is the most tech-savvy!

    I can’t get the image for this comic to load at all! Apparently Monday’s won’t either. I hope this is fixed soon, important things are happening!

      I’m so sorry that is happening! I don’t know why that would be, the file for this strip isn’t a different size or whatnot from the others. 🙁 I wish I had an answer for you!

        I was able to see the April 11 strip when it was first posted, but all I can see now is a little bit at the top with the rest just a black rectangle.

    That’s the extra toe on Beatrix. A green toe!
