Plot
In a pet shop specializing in birds, various caged birds chirp along to the score in their various styles (including a set of birds that look like the Marx Brothers). A cat eyes the proceedings hungrily and makes his way in through an open transom, causing panic and an organized counterattack. The cat then becomes trapped in the cage as the birds throw the cat out and his cage lands on a flag pole in the middle of the city dog pound.
