A black kitten from the street, with the help of an experienced yard cat, finds a good home and a kind elderly owner. Now this is a pet named Alice, who has equal rights with the old lady and always has good food. A domesticated cat has an opinion about the entire human world and willingly shares its observations: about technology, progress, human habits and misconceptions, shortcomings and diseases, about relationships between friends and neighbors. The cat discovers that leading people is easy, especially if you have four paws, because people love to be bossed around.
