Synopsis

Kitty lives in a big forest. She has a nice little cottage with two windows in the crown of a tree. One window looks out towards the sunrise, the other in the direction of the sunset. One morning while watching the sun come up, the kitten sees a boar who calls for her to come with him and the other animals. “There’s a big flood on the way!” the boar warns. “We’re going high into the mountains.” Kitty reckons her house is high enough and decides to stay home. But when it starts to rain, the water level keeps rising higher and higher. Before long, Kitty has no way to escape. What will become of her?
