"Cat Dinner Invitation"- For the benefit of Wolfie-Cat there will be a feast begat at half-past four. The Sisters "K" will come some way and they intend to stay the day once through the door. Over chairs and tables, and through the stables, cats, quite fabled, leap-lightly-to a hogshead of real food…and, in this way, on this day, they'll challenge their meal! Big Teddy Cat, and Tommy too, late of the Furry Feline Fair, will all be there…complete with crew! The Badger Cats and Jackie-O will round them up and chase their foes while on tip-toes! The host and hostess guarantee a splendid time will unfold for all…and, of course, Pusser the Force will answer the call! The Wonder-Cat will chase a bat and everyone will skittle-scat…it's where its at! LATER: Purring SLUMBERS fill the Halls.. Angelic FACES say it ALL…SLEEP little tigers, you've run-around the Floors and Walls…Sleep little Tigers, the Tuna's Gone…you ate it ALL!
