Some time later, Banjo jumps off the roof, along with pulling His sisters’ tails down the chicken coop.

Hours later, It starts to rain and he misses his family. Banjo meets a cat named Crazy Legs. They try to get back to Banjo's home and end up at a Night Club Crazy Legs recognizes. They meet three female signing cats who sing to cheer him up. The five of them look for the feed truck so Banjo can go home. Crazy Legs and Banjo get chased by dogs and manage to escape to the singing cats’ home.

The next day Banjo finds the feed truck and gets on after saying goodbye to His new friends, allowing the kitten to return to his family.
