This humorous tale belongs to the genre of children's literature, illustrating the humorous and mischievous antics of a monkey and a cat. The story is set in a domestic environment, presenting a light-hearted theme appealing to young readers. The narrative follows a mischievous monkey named Pug who, in his playful spirit, decides to engage in the task of giving his friend, a cat named Puss, a shave. His attempt at being a barber leads to chaotic and comedic outcomes as Puss struggles against his playful antics. The situation escalates when they both end up on the house's roof, creating a ruckus that attracts the attention of adults. This culminates in a humorous confrontation with a sick old gentleman, who, startled by the monkey and cat's mischievous deeds, hilariously finds a cure for his gout through the fright caused by the commotion.
