Cat Out of the Bag Alert! This review contains some spoilers for this film!
Synopsis: Based on the children’s book, a boy tries to find help for his dying turtle, Boxer.
Cartoon Cats: The boy first asks help from his cat Tabby. Tabby seems interested but obviously can’t do anything.
The boy seeks help from his teacher, who is also unable to do anything. A drawing of a cat is on the wall.
The teacher suggests the pet shop man, but the man tells the boy that Boxer is going to die. There is at least one cat in the pet shop.
After Boxer dies, the boy and his friends are outside his house when they hear a noise. They realize Tabby has had kittens.
They watch Tabby lick the kittens. No one draws any attention to the fact she has apparently had her kittens on the front lawn and they are kind of just strewn around.
After the boys watch Tabby with her kittens for a while they leave her by the front walk.
Final Mewsings: Tabby’s kittens are going to go the way of Boxer if she doesn’t get them somewhere warmer!
