Jerry owns a cat. He purchased the cat a long time ago, and plays with the cat every day. They play tug-of-war, hide-and-seek, build-and-destroy, and other equally exciting games. Jerry always wins. Jerry's cat is athletic, but is not very bright. He tends to fall a lot, and slides
(more) across Jerry's linoleum floor frequently. Jerry believes that his cat means well, but isn't smart enough to ever win any of the games. They run around Tom's house together, making messes and breaking dishes, but Jerry doesn't mind. He enjoys the time that he gets to spend with his cat. However, there are days where Jerry feels lonely. Days where Jerry asks himself, "Jerry, why don't you have any human friends?" He gets upset on days like these, but not terribly so. For, you see, Jerry is a mouse. Jerry's cat is named Tom. Why would a mouse have human friends, when he has a perfectly good cat to play with? Especially a cat that is so easy to beat in games like tug-of-war.(less)
