the mouse

unless he's having it for dinner what

smarter than mice cats are stronger than

mice

cats are bigger than mice and cats are

better than mice

end the story

[Laughter]

[Music]

just remember kittens if you like mice

you ain't no cat

don't ever show your faces around here

again as long as you're mouse lovers

you two are disgracing the real cats

everywhere

sagua i don't understand well shigura

in the outside world things are

sometimes different than they are in

here

and cats really catch mice uh

yeah sometimes some

cats but we don't we're their friends

um i guess whatever

look i gotta get out of here you know

your way back into the house

right sure but you know what i'm still

gonna be friends with the mice

they're cool and they're fun who'd wanna

eat them

yeah yeah i'll see you later

oh how about another game the g*ng's all

ready

um no i don't think so

thanks anyway hey what's wrong

you're always up for a good game of tag

i

i i i'm a real cat

and real cats don't play tag with my

i've got more important things to do

[Music]

hey why the long face hi fufu

how's it going i think that's the

question for you

why do you look so sad you know those

alley cats

out behind the house well today they

told me that

real cats would never be friends with

mice that other cats wouldn't like me if

i kept hanging out with mice

they said that cats are different

better than mice is that really true

well what do you think i don't know what

to think

tell me did they happen to mention bats

too

huh what do bats have to do with it well

in case you haven't noticed you and i

are different too

so well i'm just as different from you

as the mice are

even more different after all i can fly

[Music]

[Applause]

first of all being different has nothing

to do with being better or worse than

anybody else

or whether you can be friends with them

just look at you and me

we're very different but we're still

best friends

so are you gonna stop hanging out with

me just because of our differences

of course not but those cats said those

cats

don't know what they're talking about

they are ignorant

so i can be friends with the mice

you can be friends with the frogs in the

pond if you want

it's your choice thanks fufu and thanks

for being my friend

even though i'm i'm different from you

hey it's because you're different from

me do you think i want to spend my whole

life hanging with a bunch of bats

speaking of which oh i gotta fly it's my

night to clean the cave

remember it's your choice

it's no fun without saguaro that's for

sure

especially with just you around what's

wrong with that

well you two cut it out who's it now

i forget already are you it dogwa

no i think it was you it wasn't me

that's for sure

maybe it was me i'll be there

sorry i'm late i thought you didn't want

to play with us anymore

oh that i'm sorry i was just being

ignorant what's that it's a long story

i'll tell you all about it some other

time but i'm sorry i hurt your feelings

and you know what else

i just tagged you you're it i'm gonna

get you

that smell

be

that'd be great once upon a time

when we went exploring in the forbidden

hills

we'll finish the story later

[Music]

fishes ducks sand there you are

oldest and best incredible dinner coming

up

for yay and saguaro too

[Music]

what's the matter young one stinky

stinky

and smelly it's awful

[Laughter]

but it tastes so good

i guess you've got to be a grown-up cat

to like that weird stuff

see you later grandpa i i guess i'll

finish my story later

sagua how about we finish that story now

sure now where was i

oh yes exploring the forbidden hills

is there more stinky tofu around here

somewhere

i don't smell anything what's the matter

uh uh i just want to sit over here

but i like you next to me and don't you

want to hear the story

it's just you're uh oh i forgot

i have to go play with huang huang in

the alley but we've been planning this

story for weeks

yeah i know but i've i've really gotta

go

oh all right

have fun i smell some hundred year tofu

i want some now it's wetted my appetite

but uh but your magistrate

there isn't any more no more

well then get some more and get it quick

[Music]

oh why do you look so sad

i'm feeling bad too i'm in big trouble

because now the magistrate wants some

hundred year tofu and

it took me months just to find what we

had

[Music]

look get that tofu now

why did you say that i don't know i just

thought it would be easier to tell him

that i was playing with huang huang then

then

what here you are what's wrong with yaya

what happened i didn't want to tell him

he had smelly breath after he ate the

stinky tofu

so so instead she ran off before

listening to a story

i know oh what am i going to do now

uh why don't you just well you know

tell them the truth you mean telling me

smells like stinky tofu

ah yeah yeah our friend the cook needs

some help

so we are going to help him but i need

to tell you something

okay come on we'll talk along the way

grandpa i wanted to say about

earlier uh-huh i was saying

that um that uh hey

what are we doing why we're looking for

some hundred year tofu of course

yeah that's stinky old stuff

oh no oh yes the cook needs some for the

magistrate

wow how will we ever find any hundred

year tofu

we've got to try to help cook but how

i don't know there's so many people

so many things so many smells

i smell like cheese i smell

fish i smell flowers

i smell duck eggs you can smell all that

from here

sure can't you no when a cat gets older

they can't smell things as well as

before so

you couldn't smell that stinky old tofu

in the kitchen

not really but i sure like the taste

oh i understand now

i have an idea maybe your sharp sense of

smell can help with all the confusion

how just follow your nose sniff around

and find some hundred year old tofu

sniff out that stinky old stuff

yuck oh well if you don't want to help

no that's not what i meant i want to

help

[Music]

before

i love your stories really and but if

you love my stories

why did you run away because

because that stinky tofu makes your

breath stinky too
