"A craftsman's morning starts early."
Everyday, Jack, a Siamese cat, never fails to look after his master's needs so as to make sure that his master, Leon can leave the house as a "handsome man" who will look good anywhere.
Jack dilligently performs his duties amidst Leon's grumblings and his figure at work is definitely that of a cool cat.
This is the elegant life of Jack and Leon in the country of England.
