Tom and Jerry. We have all seen the cartoon and their antagonistic relationship. Friends, mortal enemies, and then friends again. So imagine our delight to see a real life Tom and Jerry cartoon play out on video this week in New York City.

Watch as an annoyed cat, guarding his store, has the embarrassing moment caught on tape as a tiny mouse wanted to come inside. He jumps and jumps trying to get in, even seeing the cat swat at him, but he is not afraid. Not this little mouse!

Does he just want inside to be warm or safe or does he having a craving for something inside? These are just some of life's biggest unanswered questions. What we do know is that cat is not the boss of him.

"See some real world Tom and Jerry silliness," says My Informs. "See a cat just not doing his job," according to Gothamist. But is he really doing his job? Is he a mouse friend or foe?
