03:21You're right, my dear Dandelion.
03:24We must teach that boy a lesson.
03:29Gotcha!
03:30You want to go over the wall?
03:32It's a small step for a man, but it's a long way for a cat.
03:37Stop!
03:42You will pay for the way you behave.
03:52Yeah? Then you should pay for a new wardrobe.
03:55You wouldn't be so cruel if you knew what it was to live in an animal's skin.
04:02Hey, that sounds cool!

04:36Maak!
04:37Ha ha! This cat can't meow to save his life!
04:38But who's to be a new dog?

04:41How's it going out?
04:42I'm going to be a new dog?
04:43Maak!

04:46Well, I'm going to be a new dog!
04:47Look at this weirdo! Let's get him!
04:59This cat can't meow to save his life.
05:02But who's talking about saving his life?
05:08Get him!
05:10I didn't get it. Why couldn't they understand me?
05:17Here, come back! Let's go!
05:21How could they do this to me?
05:23Here, kitty kitty! Come here, nice little kitty!
05:35I couldn't believe it. There I was. A boy in the skin of a cat.
05:40I thought I must be dreaming.
05:42Wake up! Wake up!
05:45But it wasn't a dream.
05:52Billy! Billy! Billy!
05:57Billy!
05:58Joe, have you seen Billy?
06:00He was here earlier.
06:02But we lost him.
06:03Oh, I mean, we got held up.
06:06Yeah, helping an old lady across the road.
06:11Helping her.
06:12Yeah.
06:13Well, if you see him, will you please tell him to come home?
06:16He's not usually late for lunch.
06:18Well, Dandelion, it seems we have upset the balance of nature.
06:23Not to mention the mother of that wicked boy.
06:27That poor woman deserves a kinder, more obedient son.
06:32Someone like you.
06:35There's only one thing for it.
06:40Dandelion, how would you like to become a boy?
06:46I was cold, I was wet, I was worried.
06:52I didn't want to be a cat.
06:55You woke me from my afternoon nap.
07:11Bozo, you have any idea how much I like my beauty sleep?
07:17With a mug like that, you should get more of it.
07:21Oops.
07:27I get my paws on you, Fuzzball!
07:29You're at dinner!
07:43Interesting.
07:44When an irresistible force meets an immovable object,
07:48it appears something's gotta give, something's gotta give,
07:51something's gotta give.
08:05Wow, that was close.
08:14And what is that?
08:30Oh no.
08:32Wow!
08:35Wow!
08:40No!
08:43No!
08:47Surprise, surprise.
08:55It seems our young stranger has a talent for being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
09:01Ha! Ha! Ha!
09:03Ugh!
09:11Oh!
09:31Come on out, fur-brain. Haven't you heard? In this world, it's dog-eat-cat.
09:45Oh, no.
09:47Don't...
09:48Whoa!
10:01Huh?
10:04Huh?
10:08Huh?
10:10Huh?
10:11Ah!
10:12No!
10:14Ah!
10:17Oh!
10:20Oh!
10:22If I ever get out of this, I promise to wash behind my ears and eat my greens!
10:31Whoa!
10:32Ah!
10:35Ah!
10:39Ah!
10:40Ah!
10:41Ah!

10:45Ah!
10:46Ah!
10:47Ah!
10:48Saved by a whisker, young friend!
10:50Thanks!
10:51Who are you?
10:52I, sir, am Mr. Hubert.
10:55But you can call me what my friends call me.
10:58What's that?
10:59Mr. Hubert.
11:00Mr. Hubert.
11:01And who are you?
11:02Billy.
11:03Follow me, Billy.
11:09I hope you're hungry, Billy.
11:11Wonderful!
11:12Wonderful!
11:13Billy, come join me for this treat.
11:15Look at this, Billy.
11:18Yeah, you're not gonna eat that, are you?
11:22Yes, indeed.
11:23With relish.
11:24I wouldn't even eat that with ketchup.
11:28This is most delicious, Billy.
11:33Here!
11:34I can't eat that.
11:36Why ever not?
11:37You see, Mr. Hubert, I'm not really a cat.
11:39I'm not really a cat.
11:42I'm a boy.
11:45I knew it.
11:46The moment I saw you, I said, that is a boy.
11:49When I was young, I fancied I was a carrier pigeon.
11:54Imagine that, being flying cat food.
12:03Here, Billy, you will find the finest food in town.
12:12Come on, Billy.
12:19Come on, Billy.
12:24Here, pussy pussy!
12:29What's it to be, Billy?
12:30Roast beef?
12:31Tandoori?
12:32Chicken masala?
12:33Oh!
12:38Trifle!
12:39My favorite!
12:40A cat, who likes trifle.
12:43Unbelievable.
12:53Ah, my home, Billy.
12:55A 54 Cadillac Eldorado, Series 75.
12:58Can you smell the scented oils of Motor City mechanisms?
13:02You live in a car?
13:04A car?
13:05A car?
13:06It is a temple, a palace, a pavilion of upholstered pleasure!
13:10With the most magnificent view of the city.
13:18Prepare yourself to see upholstery that'll take your breath away!
13:23What?
13:24You feathered felon?
13:25This is private property!
13:26Mayday!
13:27Mayday!
13:28Mayday!
13:29Don't eat them, Mr. Hubert.
13:30Please!
13:31You'll get feathers all over your upholstery!
13:32Thank you, my little friend!
13:33You will go down in aviation history!
13:36Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
13:37Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
13:38Quick thinking, Billy.
13:39One should never eat messy snacks in a classic automobile.
13:43It's getting late!
13:44I had to go home now.
13:45But I haven't even shown you the gear shift yet, or the overhead cams, or the spark plugs,
13:54or...
13:55Please?
13:56Some other time, perhaps.
13:57You will have to go home.
13:58It's getting late.
13:59I'll go home now.
14:00But I haven't even shown you the gear shift yet, or the overhead cams, or the spark plugs,
14:09or...
14:10Please?
14:11Some other time, perhaps.
14:12Some other time, perhaps.
14:14Well, goodbye.
14:17But I don't know where I am.
14:19Don't be foolish. You're a cat. Just follow your nose.
14:23Please help me, Mr. Hubert. Please?
14:26Well, it's most obvious I won't get any rest until you've gone.
14:29Thank you, Mr. Hubert.
14:31Well, now, describe your neighborhood.
14:33Oh, there you are.
14:42You know, I have been looking for you everywhere.
14:50How far is it now?
14:52Don't be impatient, Billy. Relax. Enjoy the sparkling vista.
14:59Ah, isn't it beautiful?
15:02Oh, a cat's-eye view of the world.
15:05Humans never left their eyes from the street.
15:08They miss all of this.
15:10It's... it's brilliant.
15:14But I have to get home.
15:16Point it out to me, Billy, and we shall go there forthwith.
15:24There it is! There!
15:27Not bad, Billy.
15:29You could do worse, much worse.
15:31Oh, looks warm and well-provisioned.
15:34So, come on.
15:35We'll get something to eat.
15:36My thoughts exactly.
15:38Let's continue.
15:42Are you sure this is your home?
15:47Yeah, of course. Come on.
15:48I can hardly believe it.
15:51Perhaps, Billy, I should leave you here.
15:54Thanks, Mr. Hubert.
15:56For everything.
15:57Goodbye, my friend.
15:59And good luck.
16:00For a cat, Mr. Hubert, you're a real gentleman.
16:03So, there I was, home at last.
16:08But how was I gonna get in?
16:10I couldn't even reach the doorbell.
16:12What's that?
16:20What a sweet little cat!
16:25Mr. Hubert, your nose does not deceive you.
16:28That smell can only mean one thing.
16:32Dog.
16:32And no cat in his right mind lives in a house with a dog.
16:41There's a good pussy.
16:44Yuck!
16:45Hey!
16:46Put me down!
16:47He'll be very, very quiet.
16:50We don't want Mom to see you.
16:52What are we gonna do, Brian?
16:55I've never known Billy to be this affectionate before.
16:58And obedient.
16:59He's been drinking all his milk.
17:01It's scary.
17:10Marie, where are you going?
17:12It was then that the truth dawned on me.
17:14I hadn't just been changed into a cat.
17:17I'd swap places with one.
17:20Meow.
17:22Marie, what do you got there?
17:30Just something I found.
17:33Show me what it is this instant.
17:39Oh, I...
17:40I...
17:41Oh, I might have known.
17:45Oh, can't I keep it?
17:49Now, Marie, you know your mother's allergic to cats.
17:51Take it away, quick!
17:53Poor pussy.
17:55Come and have a bowl of milk.
18:00There you are.
18:01A lovely bowl of milk.
18:03Go on, drink it up like a good pussy.
18:06I don't like milk.
18:08I never have, and I never will.
18:11Drink up your milk, punk.
18:14Every cat deserves a last meal.
18:17But sausage, it's me, Billy.
18:20Now I've heard it all.
18:22A cat with delusions.
18:24Hey, don't worry, furball.
18:26I'll soon put you out of your misery.
18:32Hey, come here.
18:33Can I come back?
18:34Take one away from you.
18:38Damn.
18:39Stop, sausage.
18:49Ride him, Billy.
18:59Yahoo!
19:09What?
19:10Where did the cat go?
19:12There he is.
19:20Little pet.
19:25Ow!
19:30Come here, you stupid cat.
19:32Come here.
19:33No, no, ow.
19:33Get back here.
19:34I want a piece of you.
19:35Get back.
19:37Ah, what it is to be welcomed home.
19:39I'll be back.
19:56I'm going to call the proper authorities.
19:58But Daddy, he's just...
20:01Don't argue.
20:03Yes, sir.
20:03On your feet.
20:14You, sir, have the intelligence of a fire hydrant.
20:22Ha!
20:23What agility.
20:25Run, Billy.
20:25And now, a real test of athleticism.
20:33Get it!
20:37There he goes!
20:46Mr. Hubert!
20:48Mr. Hubert?
20:49If you could see your way clear to let me go,
20:53it would be my pleasure to introduce you
20:55to the finest dining the city has to offer.
20:58You'll really dig your next home.
21:06You, sir, are a scoundrel, and...
21:09Hey, Sausage, you dumb mutt.
21:11Want to come out and play?
21:16I always thought Sausage was smarter than that.
21:23It's no use, Billy.
21:32No, it's a snap.
21:34This is one of my old school locks.
21:37Sixteen...
21:37Ten...
21:39What was it?
21:44Three...
21:45Twenty-six.
21:46No, that's not it.
21:47You've come to take the cat?
21:53What was that number?
21:56Something to do with...
21:57With my birthday.
21:58That's it.
21:59My birthday.
22:03Remarkable, Billy.
22:08Let's move.
22:09Come on.
22:17What's it?
22:21What's it?
22:24What's it?
22:24Yeah, all right, we did it!
22:41You know, Mr. Hebert, I think I could get to like being a cat.
22:50You're quite a cat, Billy.
22:52You saved my life.
22:53Oh, it's a fine life, Billy.
22:56Fresh air, fine living, and wide-open spaces.
23:02Oh, to be a fur-covered quadruped now that April's here.
23:05Doesn't it make you proud to belong to the cat family, Billy?
23:09Just think, we're brothers to the tawny-mane king of the jungle,
23:13the tiger-tiger-burning bright, the fleet-footed cheetah.
23:17Billy? Billy, are you listening?
23:19Shh.
23:23Billy? Billy?
23:32Billy?
23:32Billy?
23:32Billy? Billy?
23:48So you won the river?
23:49What?
23:50Oh, there we go.
23:54No, no.
