I will add my voice to the chorus - one of the last Pepe cartoons (which I love!) features "Babette" deciding she will never find love, and painting a stripe to go after Pepe. There is even a smarmy French-accented female voiceover throughout. Too early in the morning to get my reference book out to give you the title and date (yes, I am a Looney Tunes geek), but it's real.
