    In years to come, Georgia will get a Nobel Prize for literature. This is as good as Shakespeare and Bob Dylan! Oh my heart.

    Spray bottles???

    Ok, that’s it. I’m officially dead. 🙂

    Thank you, Georgia, for the special holiday strips and for sharing your News Team with us.

    Oh my Cat! How will they get out of this one?

    By the way, Georgia, I just discovered your comic thanks to a friend on facebook two days ago, and I proceeded to read every single one and turn my girlfriend into a fan too. You are very talented, and you have such a great way of turning the quirks we all love about our furry friends into some great jokes (and occasionally quite a few tears as well). I’m so glad I found your comic. Merry Christmas to you and your family, and to your three adorable good boys.

    Is that a third Taggart child I see in the photo with Snowbelle?

      OMC you are right that does seem to be a third Taggart child!! Could it be that Snowbelle survived and has the third Taggart child with her!!!!

        It must be! I just hope it doesn’t turn out to be Brad or Dr Mittens or something awful like that. XD

    This is the best soap opera ever !!! I’m betting her mother is still alive. She really didn’t die in the helicopter crash.

      It was the only way she could secretly search for her secretly alive father without raising suspicion.

      In a soap opera the way to be sure someone is dead is to actually see their dissected body on a slab and even then they might have a previously undisclosed twin.

    Gasp! OMC — not No-No spray bottles! If That Guy Brad and dastardly Dr. Mittens will use those, they’ll do anything.

    But what’s happened to That Guy Brad’s bad fur pompadour?

      Oh no! In all the excitement of the standoff, I somehow forgot it! Poor Brad! I just corrected it, thank you for catching that Jayne! (It should be corrected on GoComics shortly, too!)

    Oh Bandit, please come and save the day! But but – Angora’s mother killed in a helicopter crash? Fake news?!? What did Snowball really do to her? Might she be alive? Ye Cats! How can we wait until tomorrow. Georgia, you are simply the best.

      @Brianna, that’s not Princess, it’s her kitten Sweetheart talking about the cake (and eating it in the last panel).

    Let’s see, who can save the day? Bandit is a distinct possibility, as is Paisley, whom I noticed is missing from today’s strip. Snowbelle and/or the unknown kitten in the picture? Or some unknown plot twist^W^Wcharacter? I’m staying tuned!

    PS: Could it be that we’ll see the first pair of legs, eg Human, in the soap?

    ROTFLH (hysterically) I just lost it with the No No Spray bottles, OMC this is hysterical Georgia. Princess eating cake in the last panel. and someone else saw a 3rd kitten in the picture, who’s missing, I wonder. I guess I was wrong, Snowball isn’t going to learn any lesson. Cannot wait until tomorrow!

    Will Bandit escape from Laundry Canyon in time to don his slicker and disarm the Terrible Twosome? Will Grandpa Taggart reappear? Is Aunt Paisley really Snowbelle in disguise? Will Elvis admit to loving “Our IX Lives”? Stay tuned for even more surprises in tomorrow’s thrilling episode!

    Spray bottles – brilliant! We don’t use those on our newly-acquired Zed; his previous owner used compressed air, which is very handy as it’s easy to make that hissing sound as well to discipline him.

    Oh My! The spray bottle about did me in!!
    Merry Christmas, Georgia, to you, your family, and your boys.
    Merry Christmas to everyone here, too!
    And thank you again, so much for this Christmas special. It has been a light in our lives during this very trying time for us. Your comic works miracles for those who need a break from real life and need a good laugh or a smile. I have found myself re-reading different strips throughout the day when I need some positive energy.

    “No-No Spray Bottles”. This is one of the few times I’ve actually laughed out loud at the office. But it was just too funny! I’ll be chuckling all day.

    I love the no-no spray bottles and Sweatheart eating cake in the last panel. Maybe Captain Nimble will come back from being lost at sea. Surely no-no bottles are no problem for a sea captain.

    No no Spray Bottles! I absolutely love the last panel. Unfortunately, my calico didn’t – she ran off when I brayed out in laughter. Thank you for your wonderful talent; this kooky, soap opera story line; and your wonderful cast of characters! Happy Christmas you you and yours. ~V

    I really am all in on making this a BCN holiday!!! I have BCN cards (both Christmas and Hanukkah); two BCN ornaments for the Las Vegas Fir; I have three BCN prints up in my office (Puck in Stocking; Lupin in Wreath; Tabitha & Sir Figaro decorating); and I have a few copies of the BCN book to give out as gifts. And now a friend has given me as gifts two more prints (Invisible Lupin and the all-time-classic Boys at Water Cooler) and last night my neighbor (I cat-sit for her; she cat-sits for me) just gave me a third BCN ornament.

    Georgia, thank you so much for bringing so much joy into my life. Best wishes for you and your family (obviously including the Boys).

    Excellent story. I’m laughing through the whole strip.

    Hmmmm . . . Could they be rescued by the return of Captain Nimble? As a cat of the sea I expect he would laugh in the face of the No-No Spray Bottles.

    Honestly this is all simply delightful. Thank you Georgia for such a lovely holiday gift.

    PS – Thanks also for the “mistakes” in posting each new strip. The Elvis/Tommy Christmas special is near and dear to my heart. Always happy to see it again!

    I noticed that Angora’s wedding dress looks like Kayla’s when she married Patch (given that you’re a fan of those 80s and 90s soap operas). Also, does anyone else keep picturing Snowball having a southern accent?

      Snowball’s mustache certainly has a southern accent. 😉

    It’s completely awesome. I cannot believe the weapons are spray bottles, it’s awesome. And of course save the cake. I wonder if Mother is still alive in some asylum or something. A helicopter crash is so easy to fake.
