Who stole the bacon? And who bit the baby? If it wasn’t the Cats and it wasn’t the Dogs then it must have been those beatboxing Foxes…

Cats: You bark all night always looking for a fight
Dogs: You leave fur everywhere, act like you don’t care

The Cats and the Dogs are having a rap battle when the beatboxing Foxes appear. No-one can understand what they’re saying though. When Channel Paw News reports that some bacon’s been stolen and a baby’s been bitten, everyone accuses the Foxes. However, when the Dogs and Cats really listen to the Foxes, they realise that not only are they innocent but “a bit like us actually.”
