*ahem*
Pepe Lepew is a Loony Toons cartoon character. He is a French skunk. Sort of. In Pepe Lepew cartoons, "french" is spoken by adding "le" to English words. In every cartoon, a hapless black cat somehow gets a white stripe of paint on her back, and Pepe falls in love with her, thinking she is a "petite femme skunk". She does not, however, reciprocate his amorous feelings, especially since his smell is rather offensive to all of God's creation.
I've incorporated your write-up into the excellent [[Pepe le Pew]] entry.
