The Mousehole Cat 28 years old

The story of a cat named Mowzer and her man Tom who saved the village of Mousehole.

Told through the eyes of Mowzer, a cat, this tale -- based on a Cornish legend -- follows brave Tom Bawcock as he makes his way towards the treacherous sea conditions to bring food back to the village. Luckily, his faithful cat sings a lullaby to the Great Storm-Cat of the sea, who was responsible for unleashing the terrible weather. Soothed by Mowzer, the Great Storm-Cat allows Tom to catch enough fish to feed every mouth in the village.
