Hundreds of mischievous mice are causing trouble in the miller's barn, and his new tabby cat is not very good at catching them. In fact, it's not long before the mice and the cat form a firm friendship against all odds. But when danger comes to the barn, the mice and the tabby must join forces to save themselves and each other.

An exuberant and funny Yeoman-Blake story in which hundreds of mice trick a grumpy miller.
