The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh: Stripes
Overview
When Rabbit forces Tigger to have a bath, the bounce-happy tiger's stripes come off. The gang believes that this "new" creature isn't Tigger, as all Tiggers have stripes, prompting an identity crisis in the sad tiger. Eventually, Eeyore solves the problem by pointing out that it is Tigger's heart, not his stripes, that make him who he truly is.
