"Mr. Johnson" is minding his own business, sitting in his chair playing his French horn when an incessant knock at his front door reveals a gift! A small cat is delivered as if it were an Easter egg in a basket. Initially enamoured, he tries to play with the thing but getting no response he decides ... to be rid of it. Sadly, the cat isn't giving up and thanks to a rather wittily constructed ditty we follow his efforts to be cat-free and it's effort to drive him from what is gradually becoming his ruined home. It's actually got something of a "Tom & Jerry" storyline to it, and in the end I felt a little sorry for the poor old man as "the cat came back", again and again, and again. The animation is lively and action-packed, with critters of all sorts taking part and his desperation leads to fairly eternal consequences. Good fun.
