From the Paper:

"Morning came and the cat and mouse made sure the fat bluebirds were in full view of the scene that was about to happen. The mouse pretended to be scurrying across the floor while the cat pounced on him. Just to play it up a bit, the cat batted the mouse around a few times. The mouse was getting quite angry at this roughness, but allowed the cat to go on knowing that his reward would be worth it. The cat decided to add one finishing touch to the act. This finishing touch was not part of the plan, but the cat was getting quite carried away with the moment and was enjoying the show a little too much. The cat held the mouse up above his head and opened his mouth only wanting to pretend to eat the mouse. But just as he opened his mouth, all the other mice came running past him."
