Not quite the purrfect animated adventure.

I was a bad kitty.

Cats are so much fun. Especially when they multiply. One becomes three, three sadly reduces to two, a stray third wins the heart, three may as
well be four,
four begets a fifth, and there won't be a sixth. One falls ill, two loves daddy and despises mommy, three hates all, four loves belly rubs, five finds
