One fine morning, Tom was taking his usual cat nap when he was suddenly disturbed by a certain little mouse.

"Mornin', Tom!", greeted Jerry.

"Oh, what do you want now, you?", Tom said grouchily.

"Aw, nothin'. Just thought I'd give you my usual morning greeting!"

"Well, leave me alone. I'm busy," said Tom, turning his back to Jerry.

"Busy with what?", asked Jerry.

"With my cat nap," said Tom.

"Aw, you and your little cat naps," Jerry rolled his eyes, "All ya do is nap, nap, nap your furry head away! Why not get up and do somethin' productive?"

"I am," replied Tom "Sleeping."

Jerry tsked and jumped onto Tom's bed.

"Come on, Tom! Let's play for somethin'!", insisted Jerry.

"Talk to the back," grumbled Tom.

"Oh, Tom," said Jerry in a sing-song voice.

"What is it now, Jerry?", asked Tom. Suddenly, he started to laugh as Jerry began tickling him on his back.

"Hey! Ha ha ha! What do ya think you're dohohohohohoing?!"

"Ticklin' ya! What's it look like?", replied Jerry.

"Cuhuhuhuhuhut it out!", laughed Tom.

"Tickle tickle tickle!" teased Jerry as he tickled Tom all over his belly. Tom is now a mess of laughter.

"That's it! You're goin' down!", said Tom.

"If you can catch me!", announced Jerry as he sped off, with Tom giving chase. They ran all over the room. A few times Tom almost caught Jerry, but he kept speeding up. Jerry jumped up on the couch and taunted the big cat.

"Nyah nyah nyah-nyah nyah!", said Jerry, wiggling his fingers in his ears. "You can't catch me! You can't catch me!", he said as he turned around and shook his butt at Tom.

"I'll make you regret that!", growled Tom.

Jerry simply motioned for Tom to bring it. Tom pounced onto the couch to catch Jerry, but he sped off. The chase resumed as Tom sped after Jerry all around the room. Finally, Tom caught up to Jerry, snatching him up in his paw.

"Gotcha," said Tom.

"Uh-oh," said Jerry.

"Now time to teach you a lesson," said Tom as he threw Jerry onto his bed and brought out his paws as Jerry began to cringe in fright. He closed his eyes, preparing for fate to come his way... only to feel fingers wriggling into his sides, making him break out into laughter.

"How do you like it, Jerry? Huh? Feel good?", teased Tom.

"Tohohohohohom!", giggled Jerry. "What are you doin'?"

"Ticklin' ya! What's it look like?", said Tom, repeating Jerry's words to him. Tom then tickled Jerry on his tummy.

"Ha ha ha! Tom! I'm very ticklish there!", laughed Jerry.

"Oh, really?", teased Tom. "Then how about here?", said Tom as he tickled Jerry's armpits. This made him break into laughter uncontrollably.

"Ah ha ha ha! Tom! Stop it! That's the worst yet!"

Tom shrugged and said, "Okay then. If you say so." He finally stopped tickling Jerry as he began to catch his breath.

"But thanks for cheerin' me up, pal," said Tom.

"No problem," smiled Jerry as he looked up at Tom. "Friends to the end."
