Christmouse Dinner
A puppet play for 2 characters Monty Mouse and Jaws the cat also Mum's voice (offstage).
Monty (enters despairingly) Oh, this is terrible. All day stuck inside this hole not being able to get out. I can't see my friends. I can't even visit the kitchen...and I'm feeling so hungry ! It's all because that great big fur ball on legs - Jaws the cat - has been on the prowl. I think he's determined to have me for Christmouse dinner ! Especially since he got into trouble from Mrs. after spilt milk was found over the polished kitchen floor right before the Christmas party. I mean , I didn't try to knock it over....It's just that I was being chased. 
I've got to get out of this mousehole , even if it's only for a few minutes. I'll just have to take a chance with the cat.
(Jaws enters on opposite side  as Monty leaves)
Jaws  (musing..) Fried...no roasted I think. Now, where is that Mouse ? I'll teach him a lesson or two...I'll make mousemeat out of  him . That's what I'll do ! Wait 'till I catch him.. 
Monty (breathlessly..) Oh, no Jaws is after me ! I can't let him catch me or I'm a  gonna. I just saw him coming thru the lounge past the Christmas tree.. Now I know why they call him Jaws..those great big choppers give me the "willies".....(looks around guiltily) .....oops , oh no. I've done it again ! ...I've knocked over Jaws' bowl and there's more milk all over the clean floor.
( Jaws enters...sees Monty... then sees the floor.. Mouse screams, freezes momentarily, then quickly exits)
Jaws  (calling after ..)  Now I 'm going to ‘mangalate’ you mouse !
​ (J. exits as ..) 
Mum's voice offstage-  What's this mess all over the kitchen floor....again ! Where is that cat ? He'll just have to learn his lesson and stay outside till tonight !
Monty  (entering much more relaxed) What a lovely piece of cheese ! It's so wonderful to be free for a while. This is my best Christmas ever !..All these leftovers from the Christmas party...and no cat to bother me. I wonder why humans make such a fuss about Christmas anyway ? 
I might just give old Jaws a wave at the window...funny..he seems to be making a strange noise and his eyes are rolling.. Well I'd best take some of this delicious food home  to Grandpa in the mouse hole.

This play could be followed by a short talk called ”Christmas, what's the fuss ?”
