Eye of the Tiger
Overtime, Tiger is becoming ever so slightly more like the late, great Sam. Only very slightly, as Tiger is not allowed outside and Sam would disappear for hours, only to return with offerings of slaughtered birds and shredded shrews. Tiger is playing with her toys more frequently, and even though Sam never played with a single toy, the ferocity Tiger is increasingly displaying echoes the old bastard's killer instinct. (Hell, Sam's killer instinct was from all appearances his only instinct.) What lies a the heart of this seeming transformation? Or is there no transformation, Tiger was simply never exposed to toys before a few months hence as is reacting to them as she always would've? An appropriately sphinx-like riddle.
