Look at Mark's pose in Panel 3. Keep looking. Keep looking. Eventually it becomes funny as hell. Or maybe because I'm thinking of Choo Choo the Herky Jerky Dancer.
When I was in high school I worked in a state run camp ground and people would leave cats/litters of kittens there. It was pretty far from anything else, not quite lost forrest but away from where any people lived. Im pretty sure my boss who lived on site would kill them.

"Don't worry about the cat, Mark."
*Mark quickly thinks, "Yes, pretend I'm not an asshole and that I am worried about the cat, too.*
Meanwhile, the giant porcupine(?) smiles at the misery. "Yes, it's all coming together, exactly as I foretold," it thinks …
