Julia Eccleshare's comment:
A cat’s eye view of the world is not exactly the same as a humans! Tuffy’s got no problems with the trail of delicious victims he brings into the house. A bird, a mouse – they are both delicious. In fact, he can’t see why Ellie is so upset. How a cat can train an owner is hilariously told by Tuffy himself in this witty commentary on the strange behaviour of humans.
