Dick Whittington is a young boy who works for a cruel cook. As Dick is cutting potatoes (by sliding them through an electric fan), a hungry cat rubs itself against the boy's legs. Dick feeds him a saucer of milk, but the angry cook throws the cat into a bag and commands the boy to throw the poor animal into the river. Dick can't bring himself to do it. The cat ends up on a ship headed to a faraway land that happens to be infested with rats. Now, Dick Whittington's cat has the chance to make good. however, his natural cowardice may get the better of him.
