Inouk

Inouk is a young Husky. He is quite a loveable fur ball all white and black. As a household pet he enjoys being fed and pampered. He does not have to look for his next meal. In fact, he expects having food always at his disposal.

One evening, Andrew, the young boy fills his bowl with rich, creamy milk. Inouk drinks half of it and falls asleep beside his bowl on the floor of the patio.

While Inouk is fast asleep, Lili the mouse comes out of a hole in the wall of the tool shed and quickly laps every drop of milk that Inouk spilt on the tile floor.

The noise wakes Inouk who wants to catch this uninvited quest. But Lili is much faster than the dog. She disappears into the hole in the wall. Inouk decides to stand guard near the hole and wait for Lili to reappear.

Meanwhile, Mefisto the cat returning from his daily roaming enters the patio and seeing the bowl half full with milk assumes it is for him and drinks it all.

When Inouk finally gives up on Lili and returns to his bowl he realizes he has lost mouse and milk.
