Hi Barbara, the notification only sends a link to the new strip, not the comic itself. Alas, I can’t send the actual comics in emails because the files would be huge 🙁 (and cause all sorts of copyright problems if I then ever wanted to publish the comic into a book, but had handed out files of it online, etc). So the notification should just be a link that goes directly to the new strip as it is published on the site.
For some reason I never seem to get the notifications…but I guess it doesn’t really matter because I check this site every day anyway. I think I’m a BCN addict.
Hi Georgia sorry just getting back to you, have received comic 🙂 No doubt will spend all day reading and re-reading it as usual. So funny, one read is not enough 🙂
Hello everyone! Some people (including the Man, at his work computer) have had issues with the image not loading for this strip. I’m not certain why it is working for some people and not others. I’m going to try and tweak the file and hopefully have it working for everyone shortly. …This is one more reason why it is really exciting that the comic will be debuting on GoComics next week, ha! I’m not great with the computer end of cartooning, the cartooning part is more my cup of tea :/
Okay!!! I think I fixed it! It seemed to be that the file was just a wee bit too big to load on some cellphones and computers. If anyone still has an issue please let me know!
Wait! If you go to GoComics how will I tell you my favorite parts of the strip, find out when you get your first book deal, and meet you when you visit the Pacific Northwest as a famous comic-strip artist? We, your charter fans, will lose our avenue to you. I guess we will console ourselves with the antics of the Boys.
Never fear, I plan to keep this site going too! Actually, what will happen is GoComics will relaunch the comic on their site, so it will start at the beginning there (on Monday, I believe!) while the strip continues where it is on this site. So… There will be double ‘Breaking Cat News,’ ha!
Hi Jenna, Sorry to say this, but it might be you. He doesn’t look like a turkey, or even ‘mainly potatoes’ – see discussion with Natalie earlier.
It only needs the addition of some veg. and he becomes a roast dinner, poor baby sweet cheeks, yours huffily.
A friend of mine on another website introduced me to the ‘The woman is under the weather’ strip shortly after I broke my leg (I’m still recovering) and this comic has been a bright spot in my day since. Puck being my absolute favorite (though they’re all three fantastic!)
I love it. This particular page though is especially great <,_>
They’re such good cats too – when I broke my leg, Cathy came to protect me from the predators she was sure were going to come to get me – she stood guard until the paramedics came to get me.
Ever since I’ve been home, Albert has snuggled up with me almost constantly, he won’t leave my side – such a sweet guy. He’s usually even pretty consciencious of my broken leg too, being careful to avoid it.
Err, sorry if that’s too much; but this comic has really been great for me and my cats mean a lot to me as well, so, uhm, felt I’d share. I’ll be quiet now. >.>; Thanks for making this!
Gah, apparently a paragraph got deleted in there, explaining who my cats are (Albert and Catherine) and that they like to wrestle like this at times too, though that Cathy is typically the instigator. Sorry for the confusion.
I’m so glad you enjoy the comic, and hope it’s been a comfort to you while you’re healing up! I love your cat standing guard until the paramedics arrived! Cats really are pretty fabulous when it comes to protecting/comforting their people 🙂 I hope you heal swiftly, thank you for reaching out!
I was in the hospital last week and found out my breast cancer might have spread to my bones. So now I have to see an oncologist tomorrow to start the numerous tests needed to find out what’s going on. Needless to say, I’m incredibly stressed out and really haven’t felt like even smiling. Then I saw this latest strip, with Lupin vs Mommy’s Special Boy Elvis, and I couldn’t stop laughing so hard I was literally snorting. Thank you so very much for drawing these strips and sharing them – they’ve been a bright spot in a pretty rough week, and I really needed that. Thank you.
You’re welcome a thousand times, Christina! I am so sorry that you are going through this, I hope and pray that the tests give you good news. Much comfort and healing to you!
“I’m ready”, “yeah, so? I’m ready too”, “you really ready? coz I’m seriously ready!”, “yup, ready to take you on”, “hah, you don’t look ready”, yes, the prelims can take hours. you have such wonderful insight into cats. We too thank you for making this.
This one is so great. Locked together, rolling all over the place, screaming at each other. The only thing missing is fur flying all over the place. When this happens at our house we pick up enough fur to make another cat. I never thought to compare it to WCW. Hilarious! I was laughing out loud after just the first panel. Georgia, you are so clever.
If I get a chance to put one together, I will try! I keep promising to get make more prints and tee shirts and whatnot available, but keep coming up against needing more time to actually make it happen. I love the idea of a calendar though, and if I can get 12 good prints together I will!
“Mommy’s Special Boy” made coffee come out of my nose.
Your illustrative skills hit new highs with this one! And why do cats love to throw each other into closed doors? Rarely walls, but almost always doors … especially screen doors with the loud metal sheet at the bottom.
When I was a kid we had a Siamese named Daisy who would begin most weekend mornings by racing through the house and shoulder checking every door down the hallway! We could never figure out why she did it!
Just going back and re-reading some strips I’d bookmarked. I’d completely forgotten about Puck’s Jesse “The Body” Ventura outfit, so I had another big laugh all over again. Thanks for making my day twice with this one!
I must have this as poster!! My husband loves WWE wrestling and is the local Crazy Cat Man (we only have 3 cats at the moment but have had as many as 6 at any one time) so this is PERFECT for him!!! Love the outfits and the posing – so WWE…sorry BCW!!
Just found this fabulous strip, and have read it from the beginning and now on my second round. Love it, LOVE IT! Love all of it but this one made me comment: Duke of Puke – that is priceless!
OMG so funny Georgia Dunn you are hilarious! I even associate people in my life with characters from this strip! Like I’m Lupin and a little bit of puck
I’m at work trying not to Laugh too loud.
My Girls Do this too… Only when I’m trying to sleep.
Hi Georgia received the notification ok, but not the comic 🙁
Hi Barbara, the notification only sends a link to the new strip, not the comic itself.

I may have misunderstood Barbara, I’m sorry! Did the link not bring up this strip? (Someone else has just had an issue too).
For some reason I never seem to get the notifications…but I guess it doesn’t really matter because I check this site every day anyway. I think I’m a BCN addict.
Oh no! I will try manually adding your email in, sometimes that has worked. I’m so glad you like the comic, thank you!!
I *think* I fixed it, I hope! I’m sorry again, here’s hoping you can see it now!
Hi Georgia sorry just getting back to you, have received comic 🙂 No doubt will spend all day reading and re-reading it as usual. So funny, one read is not enough 🙂
Haha! Thank you! I’m so glad it is working now, that is a relief!
I’m just happy I didn’t have coffee in my mouth when I pulled this up. I literally L-ed OL! And Lupin has the belt!!!
I have been on the receiving end of that kick attack. I have the scars.
I went to the url, did go to the site and I got the page. However I could not get the comic. Fortunately for me I got it from a friend.
Oh dear–does the link not go to this strip somehow? I’m sorry!
Hopefully it is fixed now, I just played around with it a bit. Sorry again!
I love Elvis’ slapping, Lupin’s “rabbit kicks” and Puck’s outfit!
I love that the baby sees their clothing

Congratulations on your debut on GoComics. Wonderful. So Pleased for you. Its a great site.
Thank you, Lindy!
Lupin has some of the greatest facial expressions!
Our cats have their “twelfth hour freakout” running matches as well.
This is great! I especially love how Puck is dressed like a little pimp and the baby is reaching for his boa!
I believe that’s Puck “The Body” Ventura.
This is exactly what happens right after we vacuum! It’s like they know we got rid of the cat hair on the carpet and they’re trying to replace it!
Yesterday we went to a Wildlife Sanctuary here in Colorado & was amused by a couple of tigers doing just this.
“Fighting? Who’s fighting? We’re just exercising.”
To add to the fun a couple of bears in the next enclosure looked as though they were laying bets.
I’ve been on the receiving end of the FUZZY FLOP. that’ll put a serious hurtin’ on ya!
GEORGIA! I’m so excited to hear you will be on GoComics! Long-time subscriber here. Let’s hope this means Breaking Cat News has a bright future ahead!
Thank you, Jenna!!! I am SO excited that the comic will be on GoComics soon!

Double the pleasure! I will subscribe to it as soon as they list it. I read my strips on there daily.
Is it me or does the Baby sort of look like a turkey in his first panel? Not his cute face, just his chubby body and legs.
Hi Jenna, Sorry to say this, but it might be you. He doesn’t look like a turkey, or even ‘mainly potatoes’ – see discussion with Natalie earlier.
It only needs the addition of some veg. and he becomes a roast dinner, poor baby sweet cheeks, yours huffily.
Daw, kitty wrestling.
Lupin’s face in this comic is so adorable! And I really love the baby playing with Puck’s boa in the last panel.
Is Lupin’s suit always a stripper tear-away?
If I can find a way to work it in again… It may be!
“Mommy’s Special Boy!” D’aw!
THAT is my favourite bit!! 😀
Bwahahaha – I love this comic so, so much!
A friend of mine on another website introduced me to the ‘The woman is under the weather’ strip shortly after I broke my leg (I’m still recovering) and this comic has been a bright spot in my day since. Puck being my absolute favorite (though they’re all three fantastic!)

Is anything in the works for a BCN calendar?
If I get a chance to put one together, I will try! I keep promising to get make more prints and tee shirts and whatnot available, but keep coming up against needing more time to actually make it happen. I love the idea of a calendar though, and if I can get 12 good prints together I will!

what is puck even wearing??? it is AWESOME!
I based his little outfit on Jesse Ventura from the 80s! 😀 I couldn’t resist….

Thank you, Pookie!!
Elvis has the championship belt. And it’s made of cardboard and tape. Nice. X3
I just started reading this today. This one is probably one of my favorites so far. The costumes are adorable! You have real talent 🙂
Thank you, Erin!!
OMG so funny Georgia Dunn you are hilarious! I even associate people in my life with characters from this strip! Like I’m Lupin and a little bit of puck
Thank you!!
