Actually, I finally figured out that it's from the kid's book
Top Cat...in which a new kitten (Stripy Cat) is introduced into the 
family. I guess it's a metaphor for a new sibling. The Top Cat states
that he will fight Stripy Cat and bite him behind the ears, and that 
he does not like his "cute little face." Eventually, of course they 
bond and all is well. The startling thing is that it has been at 
least four months since my son has read that book....
