Finn sees Mr. Pibb as someting not to hit (as much)

Finn has grown to enjoy Mr. Pibb's presence and has even learned that that presence can be extended if you don't pull the cat's tail or pound your fist into his side. Finn even calls him by his proper name "Mr. Pibb" and no longer just "cat" or "kitty".


Here the two are sharing a bowl of the juice from a can of tuna. While it is a favorite treat for Pibb, Finn was more content watching than drinking.
