dinner"
The next day he heard that the birds
were i'll.
NOW is my time" he said. 'T will get
a fat bird to eat today" So the cat put on
a tall hat and a doctors suit. He took
cane in one hand and the box OF pills for
the birds In another hand and away he
went TO the birds house. AS soon as ne
reached the birds house he tapped at the
door

The mother looked out, your words are

good doctor Your hat, coat, cane and box
OF pills are like our doctor. but your paws
are those OF the old cat. Go away l and
my children won't let you in We do not
want your pills. We are more likely TO get

Then all the birds flew at him. They
