A multi-panel cartoon.
The first frame shows the Grim Reaper approaching a bedroom where an elderly person lies sleeping. A tabby cat is outside the bedroom blocking the Reaper's path, wide eyed, standing on it's back legs and holding up a paw as if to say "stop!"
The second frame shows the cat pointing out to the Reaper (pictorially, not in words) that the elderly person has only one life, but that it, the cat, has nine. Lives, in the cat's communication, are represented by bright red hearts.
The third frame shows the Reaper's skeletal face with a question mark in a speech bubble. As if to say "so?"
The fourth frame shows the cat, earnest and wide-eyed, showing eight hearts to the Reaper; it is offering one of its lives.
The last frame shows the Reaper leaving, a bright red heart in its bony hand, as the cat walks back into the bedroom.
