Synopsis: Tom is a mischievous little ginger cat. Curious, cheerful... but also a little stubborn. When he loses his favorite cuddly toy, the one he's slept with every night since he was a little boy, all hell breaks loose. There's no way he can keep his paws crossed: he's got to find it! Fortunately, Tom can always count on Chat-Souris, his best friend, to follow him on his adventures. So it's off on a crazy expedition: there's not a place they won't inspect! But... where's that cuddly toy?!
This film could appeal to toddlers, especially those taking their first steps at the movies.
