i really hate commenting on BCN… there is always so much going on in each panel that it’s impossible to list them all :pLove the crawl… the toddler interacting with the boys (glad to see that Elvis recovered from his nap on Monday, lol).. Beatrix <3 … the alligator potty… Puck been all embarrassed and Lupin all wide eyed at the sight of a shiny sticker.

Someone tell the kid his potty is a caca-dile. He’ll run around saying “Caca-dile! Caca-dile! Caca-dile!” and drive his parents crazy.

“…until potty training, People carry their litter in their pants.” I agree with Beatrix, that does sound awful!

Just too funny for words. What’s with the sock in panel 3 – right foot big toe? A new fad? And poor Pucky’s red face – utterly hilarious. Thank you.

I love that the toddler can apparently understand the cats. Not sure if he really can or if he just tells everybody that his potty is an alligator, but it’s great. Also, Puck’s blush is the cutest thing ever, potty privacy indeed.

LUPIN— We now join Puck, live at the potty, where the Toddler seems unhappy that the sticker box is empty.PUCK—You aren’t going to cry, are you? Be happy! Look, you still have this cool alligator….TODDLER— Is my potty and I cry if I want to!(Elvis ambles by, multiple stickers clinging to his fur.)ELVIS—You would cry too if this happened to you!

Poor Pucky, so embarrassed, needing comfort. love the newspaper. Correction Georgia, MOST cats don’t want stickers, but we know that Lupin is definitely not MOST cats!! Love the Toddler and HIS alligator potty, so cool!! And BEATRIX is back with her exceptional fact finding, yea!!!! Another gem of a broadcast. can’t wait to tell my 3 cats about it tonight.

Oh my goodness. I LOVE that Puck is coming out with a newspaper! Are these direct quotes from the Toddler? (I remember doing the stickers with my kids… sigh.)

The entire strip today made me either laugh or say “Awe”. The “awe” was for Puck needing comfort.

…personally, the alligator potty probably would’ve been more likely to freak me out as a kid.

EVRYBODY wants stickers!
Fido (aka Felix Rex) over 8 years ago
OH MY CAT!! This is so funny on so many levels. I’m just glad that I read it before my students came into the room because they would be certain that their teacher had totally lost it — roaring with laughter.(Another good point — I won’t be awarding stickers to students until the new school year starts — we have two days left — because if I did that now, I wouldn’t be able to keep a straight face.)Puck with his newspaper — hilarious and creepy at the same time.The alligator potty — that has to be based on a real life “fixture” (but the name caca-dile is just precious).

Too funny : D Lupin has such BIG EYES for that sticker in the last panel! Woman, I think maybe some cats want stickers…

I do believe that when the Toddler becomes the Teenager, he’s going to be very upset with the Woman.

When I worked for the phone company years ago, I faced an aisle in our gigantic building. I began to notice the same man walk past at about the same time, with the WSJ tucked under his arm. Took it a while to register what was going on, but I SWEAR Puck looks just like him in today’s strip. Georgia, you are an acute observer of life, which is the pith of excellent story telling. I’m so glad you share so many of your talents with us.

My son and my younger brother between them have five diaper wearers. Guess who gets a forward of today’s? Litter in their pants….oh dear CAT!!!!!

I find Beatrix’s comment about people carrying their litter in their pants especially hilarious given how mother cats deal with the issue before their kittens are old enough to be litter trained.

Everything smells like lemon?
RH3 over 8 years ago
Kittens are trained by the mother cat until they are old enough to start training themselves. Much easier to deal with than children.

I love Puck blushing when Toddler is praising him. Hilarious!
RH3 over 8 years ago
Toddler hasn’t yet learned that cats don’t understand everything you say to them in Human language.
But it’s true. I have been going through Kant’s “Prolegomena to Any Future Metaphysics” with my cat, and she has completely failed to grasp several of the main points. I shudder to think what will happen when we get to Heidegger.
(Observation has convinced me that cats all over the world understand most things said in Welsh, but my Welsh isn’t good enough to talk about Kant. )

ahhahahahahahaha oh Georgia, this is fantastic! I remember those days. Snuggle Pucky for us, will you?

So many great details in this one … the book title in panel 4, the newspaper, the “Yo—is that a sticker?” remark. Made me laugh.
