- Never be greedy. Just like Edger’s being greedy for his owner Madame’s Property.
- We should deal the animals with kindness.
- Bad happens with the bad people just like Edger was taken by the luggage takers.
- We should be loyal and honest to our owner.
- We should help everyone even if you know him or don’t know him.
