Definitely one of the funniest later Sunday strips! I love Hobbes’s happy face in the first panel, and of course Hobbes dressed as a bedsheet ghost! (It’s even the trope image on TV Tropes!)
LOL at the third panel! And the last time Calvin tried that, in the October 22, 1992 strip, he didn’t mind getting mauled afterwards; he looked all scratched and dirtied up like here but he was still smiling as he said “It’s a high price to pay, but nuzzling tiger tummies is one of the great pleasures of life.”
I remember that one time our old cat was kneading on my mom’s wool-y bathrobe while she was wearing it and sitting down!
