Bathe the Cat

It's cleaning day, but the family cat will do anything to avoid getting a bath. So instead of mopping the floor or feeding the fish, the family is soon busy rocking the rug, vacuuming the lawn, and sweeping the dishes.

Bouncy rhyme carries the story headlong into the growing hilarity, until finally Dad restores some kind of order - but will the cat avoid getting his whiskers wet?
