A five-panel SMBC comic. Panel 1: A blonde woman excitedly exclaims "Oh my god! A toyger!" while a red-haired man in glasses says "What?" Panel 2: The man explains, "These people spent decades breeding kitty cats to look like a tiger! So it's like a tiger but toy-sized!" Panel 3: The woman gushes "It's so cute! I want to buy ten!" and the man flatly replies "Yes. Yes. I see." Panel 4: A caption reads "Ten years later..." with an off-panel voice yelling "Come back children! Come back!" Panel 5: Two alarmed people in the foreground while in the background the red-haired man struggles to hold a large, unruly, tiger-striped cat that has grown far bigger and wilder than a toy-sized pet, undercutting the earlier "toy-sized" promise. Votey (aftercomic): A crude, scribbly hand-drawn close-up of a cat's face with the word "LOUOOVE" scrawled in jagged letters above it.
