Summary

A pet shop specializing in birds. The various caged birds chirp along to the score in their various styles (including a set of birds that look like the Marx Brothers). A cat eyes the proceedings hungrily and makes his way in through an open transom, causing panic and an organized counterattack. The cat then becomes trapped in the cage as the birds throw the cat out and his cage lands on a flag pole in the middle of the city dog pound.

Voice cast

Purv Pullen, Marion Darlington: Bird warbles and whistling[1]

gollark: Iceland is pretty nice, from my brief time visiting there some years ago.

gollark: The UK is generally a reasonably okay country, although it has its own set of bizarre problems like most of them do.

gollark: Stop perpetuating the myth that Australia exists.

gollark: It would need a lot of computing power, but you can just rent some from the cloud™ or "borrow" an arbitrarily powerful computer from some mathematicians.
