Christmas Celebrations and the Cruel Cat


It's Christmas Day and while the family enjoys their annual feast the cat is having a Christmas 'banquet' of its own.

The family are gathered around the table tucking in to their Christmas Dinner. However, in the kitchen the family cat has found a dinner of its own - an unlucky mouse.
