British Pathé
Synopsis: Newsreel footage shows Puffy the Cat eating a muffin and playing with his companion Cock Robin, a bird whose wing was injured.
Reality Cat: Puffy was a black and white tuxedo cat who shared the spotlight with the injured robin.
The newsreel footage shows Puffy and Cock Robin taking bites out of a muffin together.
The narrator explains that Puffy and Cock Robin play together better than some siblings. In reality it looks as if Puffy barely tolerates the pecking bird, walking away when it gets to be too much.
Final Mewsings: Interesting that they never mention how Cock Robin was injured. Hmmmm . . . .
