Caption This: The Claw

Typhoon deploys The Claw, the weapon of choice to express displeasure toward the humans. What is his complaint?

The Claw

The deployment of The Claw, a key arrow in the quiver to express our displeasure and to ensure the full attention of the recipient human. We each use it to some degree, from Frankie Suave’s subtle but persistent claw when he wants his belly rubbed or ears scratched (and he will not stop tap, tap, tapping until the human complies) to Typhoon’s decidedly not subtle wallop. The real question is whether Hu-Dad heard the message. For this week’s caption this, what was Typhoon demanding from the Hu-Dad?
