The story of how cat became the human’s friend is imaginatively told. Cat wants a friend to protect her and to live with. She learns it is better protection to be friends with stronger creatures so she works her way up the animal kingdom. She first befriends the monkeys, then the chimpanzees, gorillas, leopards, lions, rhinoceros, elephants, the man and then the women – the strongest creatures!
