He encounters a fly, a fish, an elephant, some birds, and a rabbit all of which tell him that they are not a mouse, but they did see a mouse recently running past. When Cat finally encounters a mouse, the mouse is smart and says, “Who me? No certainly not, I’m a Monster! But I did just see Mouse asleep over there…” Mouse points in the direction of a very large and very real monster.
