Summary
In the middle of the night two cats are singing to each other. Then another cat wants to sing with the female cat. She lets him. Then a fight starts between the two rival males, and the cats go on a telephone line. A person throws a rolling pin at them. Then they start rolling on the wires. They run into an old dog house and the dog scares them. The male cats eventually realize that the female cat has had babies, and one of them blows a raspberry at them. The two male cats shake hands and the film ends.
