Is waking a cat that’s sleeping with his eyes open similar to waking someone who is sleepwalking? I heard you shouldn’t wake someone who is sleepwalking so maybe the boys shouldn’t wake Elvis?

On her Twitter feed, Georgia asked what our favorite BCN strips from 2018 are. It is, of course, an impossible task. I finally decided to limit myself to those strips that I saved as favorites here on GoComics. Even then it is tough. The Sunday strips are generally self-contained, so it is easier to pick one of them. The daily strips are more continuity and picking a single strip out of a continuity is tough.
After long thought, my Sunday selection is the St. Patrick’s Day strip (March 18, 2018). I loved that one so much I bought a print of it!
For a daily strip, I was tempted by some of the Lupin/Sir Fig interaction during the laundry room adventure, and some of Tillie’s bits during Pucky’s Halloween Adventure, but I finally settled on the strip from June 1, 2018: I mustache you to respect my choice!
Good morning and TGIF, orbsters and orbabies. I don’t think that Elvis should be booped on the nose while he is sleeping. His cockeyed look is absolutely adorable, though.
I don’t think LastRoseofSummer comments here on a regular basis, but over on Ten Cats there is a notification that her husband Dale lost his battle with cancer yesterday. I am sending healing and consoling hugs, purrs, bumps and boops her way.
just last night while watching tv, my dog honey on her recliner next to mine was sleeping/dreaming with her eyes open, nose twitching. but I’ve never had a cat do that. although there was no “do not disturb” sign I left her alone
Question, since I haven’t seen anything of this nature in here before and I don’t want to set a bad precedent.
I am planning for my post-back pain return to the race course to be a three-mile fundraising “fun run” for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society in March. When I’ve done this in the past, they give me a link to a page where people can sign up to sponsor me. Would anyone object if I posted the link here once I have it? (Not signing up until the beginning of February due to finances.)
Lupin if you are going to boop his nose and wake him up. You should have your wrestling outfit on, because you are going to get you butt kicked by the Duke of Puke, the Siamese You Cannot Please if he wakes up to you booping him.

This used to happen to me occasionally when I was much younger. And the results were especially unsettling — not just for me, but for anyone in the same bed — if I was dreaming when it did.

@Georgia Dunn I hope you see this! I’ve just revisited 2018, and from a long list distilled my six favorites, the all-time favorite being the one that turned me into a lifelong admirer of yours when I found it on your website a couple years ago: 5/17/18 — showing me you truly channel kitties.
The close runners-up include 4/29, 5/20, 5/27, 7/24, and 9/2.

So, I’ve got this weird sense of déjà vu. Didn’t we already get this little plot line? I swear we did…
Doesn’t make it any less funny, though!

I have a feeling that no matter what they do, when Elvis wakes up, he is not going to be a happy cat!

I wouldn’t boop his nose if I were you, Lupin. Too risky.

Yes, Lupin, I totally dare you to boop his nose, and it’s my birthday, so you have to say yes (hee-hee).☺♥

To boop or not to boop, that is the question
Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to resist
The temptation and pointer of outrageous humor
Or to take paw and boop and invite a sea of troubles
And by booping bring more trouble for a moment’s laughter…To boop, perchance to laugh—Ay, there’s the rub.
Ahh, forget it. I’m gonna boop his nose.
What say you, orb?

To boop, or not to boop … that is the question!
However, Kitty Katz took that out of my keyboard.
Still, today’s comic reminds me of my favorite “B.C.N.” ever:
