‘Cuthbert was a corpulent cat. As far as cats go, he was the fattest of the fat cats. His harem was large, and in order to keep them all purring, he ran a gambling den where other cats would race rats. One day, a scrawny little cat got into his business. Snarling, he unsheathed his weapons, only to learn, you never mess around with a ferret named Jim.”
