This episode provides examples of:
- Big "YES!": Stuffy gives one when Doc says that Squibbles can stay and Stuffy can adopt him.
- Cuteness Proximity: How everyone (minus Stuffy) reacted towards Squibbles the first time they meet him during this episode. This happens to Stuffy as well later on, so much so that he ends up adopting Squibbles as his pet.
- Crying Critters: Stuffy sobs with noticeable tears when Squibbles is said to be leaving him.
- Got Volunteered: This happens to Stuffy when toy pet of some sort named Squibbles takes a shine to him. Stuffy doesn't really like him at first because he finds him annoying because he keeps tailing after him and doing stuff like jumping on him and licking him. But when Squibbles is scared of getting a checkup from Doc, Stuffy is volunteered to accompany him to calm him down because he's the only one that can and then later is volunteered to keep him busy while Doc heads out to put up signs to try to find his owner.
- Ridiculously Cute Critter: Squibbles meets the definition - he's basically a ball of fuzz that looks a lot like the voorpaks
from Star Wars, but much more colorful. - Shout-Out: Stuffy specifically states of Squibbles that "I'm gonna love him and hug him and call him George." The trope doesn't actually happen, though, because Stuffy knows to be careful. Also, when Squibbles whimpers at this, Stuffy demurs and says they'll stick with "Squibbles."
