The story kicks off with Granny, accompanied by two movers operating a truck labeled "Checker Movers, It's Your Move," as they search for her new house. Soon, they locate the house, and the movers start transporting Granny’s belongings past Sylvester, a classic cartoon cat, who is peacefully napping on top of the wall that surrounds the property. The scene becomes lively when Tweety, the clever yellow canary, is carried past Sylvester in his cage, prompting Tweety to exclaim, “I tawt I taw a puddytat!”. Upon hearing this, Sylvester immediately springs into action, chasing after Tweety along the wall. However, his pursuit is abruptly halted when he crashes into a lamp post and falls off the wall, creating a humorous fail.
Undeterred, Sylvester regains his composure and climbs back up the wall just as Tweety is taken inside the house. nearby, another mover sets Hector's doghouse down on the ground. Sylvester tries to sneak into the house by climbing onto the roof of Hector’s doghouse, but Hector, a fierce and territorial dog, spots him. Hector also recognizes Sylvester and exclaims, “I tawt I taw a puddytat!” before biting Sylvester’s tail and chasing him back to the street in a comical yet frantic pursuit.
In a series of humorous attempts to get inside and capture Tweety, Sylvester disguises himself as a lamp by placing a shade on his head. He is then carried into the house and placed next to Tweety’s cage. Tweety, quick-witted as ever, outsmarts Sylvester by plugging his tail into an outlet, delivering a startling electric shock that stuns Sylvester. Hector, meanwhile, bites Sylvester again while also getting zapped himself, and they both are sent flying out of the house.
Not giving up, Sylvester tries a more elaborate disguise by posing as one of the movers—yet it doesn’t go as planned. He ends up with Granny’s piano loaded onto his back, attempting to sneak it to Tweety upstairs. As he journeys to the top floor, Tweety guides him through a doorway, which causes Sylvester to tumble down onto the street with the piano, prompting Tweety to quip, “Ooooh, dat wast step was a wuwu!”
His next scheme involves hiding under a bear rug in an effort to ambush Tweety at his cage. Although he manages to get close, Granny, frightened by what she perceives as a bear, fires several pistol shots at Sylvester in a reminiscent scene from earlier cartoons like The Fair-Haired Hare. Hector chases Sylvester away once again, keeping him from catching Tweety.
In what becomes the final effort, Sylvester dresses up as a voluptuous female dog to distract Hector in a cunning disguise. Just as he’s about to strike Hector with a mallet, catastrophe strikes when a dog catcher appears, catching Sylvester in a net and throwing him into his truck. Sylvester, furious, pounds on the truck window demanding release, but the dog catcher dismisses him. As the dog catcher removes his rubber dog mask, revealing he's actually a man, Sylvester's mistake is revealed—he is not a dog, but a cat! The revelation causes all the dogs in the truck to attack him immediately, and the truck drives off down the street with Sylvester trapped inside.
Meanwhile, Tweety, feeling victorious, comments, “Dere won't be no more puddytats awound to chase me now.” Just then, Tweety notices two cats wearing lamp shades like Sylvester did and realizes, with a hint of humor, “Of tourse, I tould be wong.”
This cartoon piece is a classic comedy of errors filled with clever disguises, slapstick humor, and the persistent, often unsuccessful, attempts of Sylvester to catch Tweety, culminating in a humorous, chaotic ending that keeps viewers entertained with its witty antics and playful visuals.
