When a city council decides to impound all stray animals, a selfish ex-house cat seeks refuge with a family of street cats, but to earn his place, he must learn to put others first and outsmart the Feline Mafia henchman that stands between the street cats and the new home that will save them all.

Loglines are about objective goals,? not about lessons learned.? Why?? Because? the "lesson learned" is an unintended consequence of the intentional striving for an objective goal.? It's not something a character seeks or wants.? Who wants to deliberately, consciously, intentionally seek to find out he's wrong, that he needs to change?

Loglines area about what a character intentionally wants, not about what he unintentionally discovers.
