Cat Out of the Bag Alert! This review contains a spoiler for this episode!
Synopsis: Chip (Stanley Livingston) feels left out when his older brothers go camping so Steve (Fred MacMurray) arranges for some outdoor adventures in the backyard.
Kitty Cameo: Through a series of mishaps, Steve and Chip get locked out of the house and have to spend the night in a makeshift shelter. A storm brews and the night is full of scary sounds. Tramp, the family’s dog, is with them and starts to whine about a noise on the roof. Steve suggests it is probably the neighbor’s cat. All at one there is a close up of a tabby cat swiping and yowling (a typical Poor Cat Screech). Tramp then jumps up and runs out of the shelter where the cat yowls continue.
Final Mewsings: Cats don’t like people sleeping in their night time territory!
