A short, whimsical spoken children's story/song (attributed to Eve Sutton) that lists various cats from different countries and their silly talents (singing, flying aeroplanes, joining the police, etc.), repeatedly returning to the refrain that the narrator's cat prefers to hide in boxes. The piece is playful and repetitive, likely intended for young listeners.
