One of the peculiarities, at lexical level, of Katomyomakhia is that the Greek term for the cat is not widespread aílouros but káta. As in this work action is transmitted only from the point of view of the mice, it can be assumed that this would be the perspective with which the author wants to be identified their listener/reader(s), by circulating a parodic-political-critical message.
