I see what this is all about. The great cat chase. lemme see. hm. ahhah, isn't that a riot? a baby. no. I'd say that's a little girl. and she looks like she's dressed up in some of her mother's clothes or something. she's got on high heels and a pocket book. 'es that look like somebody I know? who? who likes to get dressed up? who? I cann't imagine. somebody named Ursula Ann? me. [laughs] she's giving her kitty cat a li'le ride in the carriage, huh? yeah. oh oh [gasp]! look what happened. she's bending over to pick a very pretty flower, and the cat doesn't like the ride.
cats don't usually like to ride too well so he's trying to run out of the carriage when she's not looking. she turns around and she goes " oh no." she sees the blanket on the ground and the cat's gone. course he knows where she is, he's peeking at her from behind the tree. she runs off to get a policeman because she cann't find her cat. she's really kind of worried. and she finds a policeman. and... what she say? there's a little body, she oh... I don't know, she probably says " oh dear, oh dear, my cat has run away, and I cann't find him." the policeman puts up his hand. see he's saying " stop." oop. they turn around and there's the cat, sitting right there looking at them. they probably feel kinda [kind of] foolish now cause they thought he was missing and he wasn't at all. so they say " here kitty, kitty, kitty." but that... kitty, kitty. cat doesn't wanna be caught, you know. they don't like to be. he's looking at them as if to say " well you catch me if you can." and there... was he... whoop!
the policeman tries to reach him and he cann't. he falls over. the little boy's laughing. and the little girl's very angry. she's kinda [kind of] disgusted with him that he couldn't catch the cat. so they're still calling him, and they're walking after the cat to try to catch him. an the cat's looking back at them. he's gonna go through this big pipe. and he's probably gonna hide on them. I would imagine. oh no! look at this. he crawled into there and he's gonna make all of them crawl through there to catch him. look at him. he's peeking in to see where they are. oh isn't that funny? what? [chuckles] look at the man. well it's really a boy dressed up. but he's gonna fall onto the end an there's water down there. they're not gonna like that too well. he falls in the water, and he helps the little girl out. the cat in the meantime is watching. he's probably having a real ball watching them fall in... oh no, look at that, he fell right in the in head first into the water. now. oop. now there he goes back in the pipe again [laughs]. oh they're so mad now. oh no, that was clever.
see the little boy? he was sitting at the other end waiting, and he got the kitty when he came out [gasp]. he lost him. there he is hopping on that little boy's head. oh they must be furious with that cat, huh? now he's gonna climb the tree. now they're gonna have a great time getting him out of the tree. he climbs up the tree. [laughs]. the kitty cat's hanging on by one limb, grabs a hold of him. [giggles]. whoops there goes the branch. it's ready to crack. oh oh. there it goes snap! he's fallen down. [laughs]. you think that's funny? [laughs] what happened? xxx the man... well the branch wasn't strong enough to hold him, so he's gonna fall. thud, right on the ground. well they're all kinda battered and bruised and they're tired of tryin' to find that cat. there he... look at him. he's walkin' along behind just as like nothing happened. proud as can be. is he a baby? no, I think he's kinda [kind of] tired out so they put him in the carriage I guess. I know he's awfully tired.
look at him. he he's sitting down resting. and the little girl... I dunno what she's up to. oh she says wait a minute. and she goes in the house, and she comes out with some iced tea and cookies. oh! she figures they need a little refreshment after trying to catch that kitty cat, huh? they all look rather happy, don't they? now can we...

" where has my baby gone?" and there's her baby. here's the pussy cat right behind a tree. but Mathilda doesn't know that. and so she goes running down the street. " help." and there she sees her friend Charlie pretending he's a policeman. and Charlie stops all the traffic and says, " I'm a policeman." " I can help you." and xxx she says, " my baby." " he's gone." " my pussy cat." she jumped out of the baby carriage.
and Charlie says " she's right behind you." " there she is." " see?" I told you I could help you find her. and you can see Mathilda's very, very happy. now they hafta get the pussy cat back. and Charlie sets down low and tries to creep along to get the um pussy cat. the pussy cat... what kind... look at that face, what do you think the pussy cat's saying? you tell me. you want me to tell you? he's saying, " I don't wanna go back into that baby carriage." sure enough, just as Charlie reaches out to get the pussy cat, the pussy cat runs away. and Mathilda is very upset and says, " you get my pussy cat for me." ah notice that this little fella here... we'll hafta give him a name. do you know his name? no. we have Charlie. should we name him Craig? yeah. okay that's Craig. Craig thinks this is all very funny and first he's getting, kinda [kind of] bored. when Charlie was gonna try and get the pussy cat and the pussy cat runs away he thinks it's pretty funny. yeah but. well yeah but I will fix this little cover.
is it coming off a little bit? yeah. okay. oh there's his whistle. [gasp] yes he's got a policeman's whistle so there is Charlie and Mathilda oh tiptoeing along. [sneezes] I'm gonna blow my nose. I know how. okay. it doesn't have a spider in it. no there's no spider in it, I think we would get a little bit more out if you blow hard. [blows nose]. ah that's good. no, no, no, no. does it hurt? no. okay now the pussy cat begins to go into a big tunnel here. and here comes Mathilda and Charlie following. and Craig's just following along to see what happens. there [laughs] goes Charlie. he jogs into the tunnel too to following the pussy cat. and see? this tunnel goes through a big mound of the dirt. and there's the pussycat standing on top of the tunnel. he's gone out... he's walled through and climbed up on top. and at the other end of the tunnel is a puddle of water. I guess it's more than a puddle. it must be a river. hm I wonder what happens next. they all go in the tunnel.
poor Charlie falls in and gets wet. and there's Mathilda saying, " there goes my pussy cat." " hurry up and get her." then here Charlie's very surprised when he falls out. here I think he's getting angry with Mathilda. yeah. cause he's trying his best and she's yelling at him saying " there goes my pussycat." " you go get him." hm he [laughing] tries to help Mathilda out and what happens? look what happens. she falls on top of him. the pussy cat thinks this is pretty funny. there [laughing] they all are. they're sopping wet in the water. and the pussy cat, jumps back into the tunnel. so now what happens but Mathilda and Charlie hafta go back through the tunnel. and look it here. here is Craig sitting on the top and he catches the pussy cat. hah and the pussy cat who really doesn't wanna be caught jumps on top of Charlie's head. and Charlie's saying, " get off of my head." and Mathilda is saying something here to Craig. she's saying, " you hafta be gentle with my pussy cat." the pussy cat gets off of Charlie's face and starts running up the tree. this pussy cat is really trying very hard not to get caught. he climbs up the tree and he jumps over to this branch. now he doesn't have any place to go so Charlie reaches over and gets a hold of the cat and picks up the cat by the back of his neck.
and that doesn't bother the pussy cat. cats don't mind being picked up that way. ouch. oh I'm sorry. um and here's Mathilda ever so happy that Charlie got the cat. but Craig isn't so happy any more cause he thought he was going to be able to get it. just then what happens? look it there. the branch begins to break and Charlie drops the pussycat right into the arms of Mathilda. now Mathilda has the pussy cat. but poor Charlie has landed right on top of Craig. ah [laughs] and look who ends up in the baby carriage. not the pussy cat but Craig because poor Charlie landed on top of Craig, and look at poor Charlie. he's got scratches on his face and he's got this stick here that he hasta use as his cane. now Mathilda says, " now you fellas you wait right out here." " I'll be back in a moment." and here she is. now she's pretending she's the nurse, she brings out some lemonade and cookies and glasses to drink. and she's going to make them better, huh? because here's Charlie who's got scratches on his face and bruises from falling out of the tree. and so he needs something to make him feel better. hi. hi. I'm Lisa Menn. I work on this project too. hi, Susie. I'm xxx. are you having a good time today? I brought you a present.
