Well the stereotypical animal dynamic is all over the shop here as a dog rescues an abandoned kitten from the river only for it to follow him home and befriend “Mickey Mouse”. That just annoys it’s rescuer who plans a revenge that makes matters worse thanks to a goldfish who is kept in a bowl by the mouse before the cat contrives to chase a ball down a well! Nope, it doesn’t hang around right from the start as this enthusiastic young kitten causes mischief galore but the real question for the jealous “Pluto” is: does he rescue the helpless little cat from the icy well as his angelic self advises, or does he leave it to freeze as his more devilish persona suggests?
