This charming narrative poem expands on the familiar nursery rhyme, following the adventurous Pussy-cat Mew as she journeys from the countryside to London with the goal of visiting the Queen. Along the way, she encounters minor frights like boys and dogs, and has a brief, unsuccessful hunt for a field mouse. Upon reaching London, another cat helps her sneak into the palace where she finally sees the Queen, but her natural instincts take over when she spots another mouse under the royal chair. Chasing it causes comical chaos and panic among the royals, frightening Pussy-cat Mew so much that she flees the city, deciding home is the best place after all, and returns to famously tell her mistress she "frightened a little mouse under her chair," illustrating a gentle lesson about the appeal of adventure versus the comfort and safety of home.
