Les trois vies de Thomasina

Thomasina: [first lines; voiceover] Yes, I am Thomasina. This story's all about me. I'm a self-made cat, and here's the house I live in with the MacDhui family, whom I'd adopted when they first came here. They started off by calling me Thomas, but when they, well, got to know me better, they changed that to Thomasina. Humans are funny that way. That the MacDhuis are a happy family is entirely due to me. I made them what they are today... Although I had to be murdered first. Here's the scene of the crime - Inveranoch, in Scotland, in 1912. And this is Mr. Andrew MacDhui. From a cat's point of view, even before my murder, he was a most difficult man, believe me. His wife had died sometime before he came here, So there was just himself, and Mrs. Mackenzie, his housekeeper, and Mary, his daughter. I'd moved in on them a few days after they'd arrived, and on the whole, I got on with them very well, though mostly because of Mary MacDhui. She appreciated my rather special qualities from the start.
