If Alice draws an Exploding Kitten which she tries to Defuse, can Bob Nope that, making the kitten explode and eliminate Alice?

At the time of asking, I had only played it once, an hour before. As it wasn't my own game, I had no access to the rule book leaflet.

    Not sure why this is +6. It is pretty much the epitome of "This question doesn't show any research effort?"

    @Kevin Well it's +6 for 1,962 views. I'm thinking that "exploding kittens" and "can I nope a defuse?" are attracting amused viewers from the hot questions list.

    @Dronz maybe I'll post "How many dice do you roll in Monopoly?" and see how many views and upvotes I get. As a test, or course. Not in any way to reap cheap reputation points

    @Kevin Try that one and the same question about Cat-opoly and of Monopoly: Cat Lovers' Edition, and see how they each do.

    @Kevin I saw a question about keeping your hand secret and now I feel a bit less bad about this question.

Nope.

From the rules

Nope

Stop any action except for an Exploding Kitten or a Defuse Card. Imagine that any card (or Pair or Special Combo ) beneath a Nope Card no longer exists

You can not nope a defuse card.

    Huh. Must have missed that. Didn't feel right, though, so we didn't allow it.

    You can always blame the kitten.

    We house-ruled this in for fun. Definitely consider who you're playing with if you choose to do so.

    @Acccumulation, the second part states "any card" so it does not counter a draw.
