Its a family photo, they don't need to be blood relatives.

so tobacco is not related?

Yes it is a nightshade. According to Wikipedia, nightshades are plants in the family Solanaceae, and

Tobacco is the common name of several plants in the genus Nicotiana of the family Solanaceae.

I was shocked too. Maybe ToMacco wasn't so farfetched after all.

Yeah that one messes me up as well. Who of these birthed the cat? Who of these did the cat birth?
