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.
How does it go from ..impounding stray animals.. to ..seeking refuge with street cats..?I get that his relationship with the stray make for a good Second Act that will teach him to be selfless, but for loglining purposes, wouldn't his immediate Goal be to go off-street (to avoid being impounded) ratRead more

Enters an objective visual goal: ..the new home that’ll save them all..?
Inciting inciting can be when his owner dies and the family leaves him outside.
The street becomes his Act 2. By the end of which, when he’s learning to love & share, the city council then becomes a mid point reversal.

..& Let’s say you must go with his current Goal. Then what’s standing between it & him? Try something that make us imagine the scope of his Action.. the visual & objective quality of his Conflict will determine whether we’re going to root for him. A premise where the protagonist must seek a sense of belonging could be interesting, it just needs that wrinkle of urgency to get it moving. So what if he fails to escape his troubles? The stakes aren’t high enough for us to care.
