The episode features one of the most popular characters of the series, Furrball, a cute and clumsy kitten who has a hard time catching his prey.
The story begins with Furrball sneaking into the city dump to find food. While searching for something to eat, he stumbles upon a discarded toy mouse that he mistakes for a real one. Furrball becomes obsessed with catching the toy mouse, but no matter how hard he tries, the toy always manages to elude him.
In his attempts to catch the toy mouse, Furrball stumbles upon the Acme Acres Retirement Home, a facility for aged and retired cartoon characters. Inside, he meets some of his favorite cartoon characters from the golden age of animation, including Tweety Bird, Sylvester, Speedy Gonzales, and even the Tasmanian Devil.
Furrball is thrilled to be in the company of such legendary characters and offers to help entertain them. However, as he tries to perform his tricks for them, he keeps getting interrupted by the toy mouse. Furrball continues to chase after the toy mouse, causing chaos and mayhem throughout the retirement home.
Meanwhile, the rest of the Tiny Toons gang is worried about Furrball's whereabouts and sets out to find him. They search all over Acme Acres, but without any luck. It's not until Elmyra Duff, the show's resident animal lover, spots Furrball entering the retirement home that they finally discover his whereabouts.
When the Tiny Toons arrive at the retirement home, they find Furrball in trouble. The toy mouse has finally outsmarted him and caused him to get tangled up in a mess of yarn. The Tiny Toons work together to rescue Furrball and stop the toy mouse from causing any more trouble.
In the end, Furrball learns an important lesson about the value of friendship and the joy of being able to entertain others. The retired cartoon characters also learn a thing or two from Furrball about the importance of staying young at heart and having fun.
