So we've a fairly hapless cat that chases just about everything it can, but couldn't catch a cold. Until one afternoon he espies a canary in a cage in the garden next door. "I know!", he thinks. I shall sneak up on said bird and I'll have it for lunch. Good plan except the bird has his very own guard dog. Not an especially menacing hound, you understand, but one that is roped up and very noisy. Now this is one of the rare examples of cat and dog animation where there cat isn't actually as dumb or as scared of his canine counterpart, and indeed for a while your money might actually be on him to get fed. This is quite a rapidly paced animation that relies heavily on quite an international style of soundtrack, a belly dancing hose-pipe and an highly polished floor to keep it moving and I quite enjoyed it.
