Once upon a time, in a cozy little house, lived a group of friends named Bat, Cat, Rat, Sat, Fat, Mat, and Hat. They all loved to play together and have fun, but one day they realized they were getting a little too big for their house.

So they decided to go on an adventure to find a new home. They packed their bags with a few essentials and set off on their journey.

As they walked through the forest, they came across a big, fat rat. The rat was so big that they were afraid to approach him, but Bat bravely stepped forward and asked him if he had seen any houses for them to live in.

The rat told them that there was a beautiful house on the other side of the forest, but it was guarded by a fierce cat. The friends were determined to find the house, so they thanked the rat and continued on their journey.

After a long walk, they finally came across the house. Sure enough, there was a big cat standing guard at the door. But Cat, who was clever and quick, had an idea. She sat down in front of the cat and began to groom herself. The cat, who had never been groomed before, was so pleased with the attention that she let the friends into the house.

The friends were overjoyed at their new home and thanked Cat for her help. They unpacked their bags and made themselves at home. They put their mats down to sleep on and hung their hats on the wall. They were so happy to finally have a new place to call home.

From then on, they all lived happily ever after in their beautiful new house in the forest. And whenever they looked back on their adventure, they remembered the kind rat, the clever cat, and the brave Bat who had helped them find their new home.

The end.
