Life with a Cat

This is the first of the "Ragtimes" — a peculiar subtype of Masyanya cartoons where the characters play not only themselves but also various animals. Allegorical cartoons, so to speak. There are nine Ragtimes in total, and I'm putting them in a separate playlist precisely because of this unusual concept. Though it's not really that unusual, when you think about it. We're all roughly 97% animal, and our behavioral patterns are easy to recognize as distinctly beast-like — so easy, in fact, that it's often funny. That's what the Ragtimes are about. And vice versa: animal behavior sometimes strongly resembles human behavior, only caricatured.
