00:00My name's James, James the cat. I've had fame, money, and all that. Now I'm here, growing fat, chasing birds and butterflies.
00:26James the cat.
00:43James was having his morning stroll, checking over the garden.
00:48Morning. Morning. Morning, Mrs. Lavender. Hello. What's this? A new hole?
00:56Hello? Hello? Anyone down there?
01:03Smee, boss.
01:04Who's Smee? What are you doing?
01:07It's Wocky, and I'm making an extension to my house.
01:12Oh, so glad you followed my advice. Good, right. Well, I'll be off then.
01:18I seem to be stuck.
01:25Oh, help. I am stuck.
01:28Oh, James, what are you trying to be? An ostrich?
01:31No, I'm not. I'm stuck, silly. Now pull me out.
01:35It took both Frida and Rocky to pull him free.
01:42Ouch.
01:47Hello, fatty.
01:50You're looking a bit homely these days.
01:52Me, fatty, homely?
01:55That does it. A diet is required.
01:57Frida quickly regretted teasing James, for everyone had to go on a diet.
02:07Today, we start exercise and jogging classes.
02:11No, I'm sorry, Mrs. Lavender. You can't be excused because you're a snail.
02:14But we're all fit except you.
02:19Beg pardon?
02:21I said, we're all fit except you.
02:26You see what I mean?
02:31When James was not organizing classes, he was busy making his poor victims exercise with horrible contraptions.
02:41It's my latest design.
02:42Beak strengtheners.
02:45Very effective.
02:46And over here, we have my new wing expander.
02:51And there is my best weightlifting device.
02:57By now, there was a distinct air of mutiny in the garden.
03:02Have you noticed that all James does is order everyone about?
03:06And that he's the only one not getting thin?
03:09Is that a fact now?
03:10Ah, we'll have to change this situation.
03:13Too right.
03:14Well, now, I have a little plan.
03:17So gather round and I'll tell you what it is.
03:20Tomorrow morning, this is what we do.
03:22Good morning, James.
03:31It is your birthday.
03:33Uh, birthday?
03:35My birthday?
03:37Today?
03:37Oh, yes, James, said Mrs. Lavender.
03:42You've forgotten your own birthday.
03:45And Citron made the cake especially for you.
03:49Oh.
03:51Oh, thank you.
03:52Thank you, Citron.
03:54It's so easy to forget one's birthday because, being a cat, one has nine lives.
04:07Therefore, nine birthdays per year to remember.
04:11And yes, now that I come to think of it, I do believe my next birthday is the Tuesday after next.
04:19Bye-bye.
04:20Bye-bye.
