When is the Duchess not a Duchess, but a cat1 The answer is when she is an animated cat, an AristoCat.1 That makes Duchess a cat that stands to inherit from Madame Bonfamille upon her passing. This is the plot for Disney's The AristoCats. Edgar, the butler in The AristoCats movie, does not intend for a cat to inherit, but seeks to secure the money for himself.
FrouFrou is a horse, who would like to be a cat. Viewers of1 the Disney animated The Aristocats would perhaps enjoy being a cat as well, if1 as a cat they could sing like Thomas O'Malley, or ScatCat. Imagine a mouse, who is friendly with a cat, a mouse named Roquefort, who along with friend FrouFrou aids in the happy ending of The AristoCats. These characters sing, and work Disney magic, as well as magic of their own, as they avoid being sent to Timbuktu. Poor Edgar, the schemer, his plans backfire, and he is the one who ends up in Timbuktu, a fitting end for him.
