A cat wrapped in bandages (possibly Furrball) sets a basket by the front door of Elmyra's house and rings the bell. The cat flees as Elmyra opens the door and notices an abandoned baby mouse, [[Li'l Sneezer]], inside the basket with a sign next to him that states, ''Please Give Me a Home''. Elmyra is excited to have a new baby mouse to take care of, and takes him to the kitchen to feed him. Sneezer asks for some cheese, but Elmyra decides to feed him pureed beets instead. As she is putting the beets in the blender to make some juice, Sneezer climbs up the open fridge to get some cheese. Elmyra, having finished making the juice, notices Sneezer climbing up the fridge and catches the falling food. Before he can eat the cheese, Sneezer sneezes, blowing the kitchen away. He says "Bless me, I must have a little cold".

After lunch, Elmyra decides to give Sneezer a bath, giving him a rubber duck to play with. She leaves to go get a baby sponge, but Sneezer wants to play with the rubber duck, who has strayed to the deep end of the tub. He slips on a bar of soap, which knocks over a bottle of Acme bubble bath, flooding the bathtub with bubbles. Elmyra returns, shocked to find Sneezer gone. She tries to rescue him but slips on the bar of soap. She is relieved to find him in a bubble, but he sneezes and sends her and the bath water down the stairs. Elmyra reads a bedtime story to Sneezer as she puts him down for a nap. She fluffs his pillow, and a single feather flies out and tickles his nose. He sneezes, this time destroying her house. Sneezer wakes up and wants to play with Elmyra, but she is unconscious.

He remembers that birds like worms, but not wanting to get any, he resorts to cooking Acme spaghetti. After he feeds the baby birds, they start to cry. They need to be burped, and so he burps them. He puts the baby birds down for a nap so they won't disturb them, but Furrball returns and steals them. Byron rescues the baby birds and Furrball stays away, but he falls off the roof. The baby birds, who have just learned how to fly, rescue Byron and thank him for taking care of them.

Episode Segments

Awful Orphan

A cat wrapped in bandages (possibly Furrball) sets a basket by the front door of Elmyra's house and rings the bell. The cat flees as Elmyra opens the door and notices an abandoned baby mouse, Li'l Sneezer, inside the basket with a sign next to him that states, Please Give Me a Home. Elmyra is excited to have a new baby mouse to take care of, and takes him to the kitchen to feed him. Sneezer asks for some cheese, but Elmyra decides to feed him pureed beets instead. As she is putting the beets in the blender to make some juice, Sneezer climbs up the open fridge to get some cheese. Elmyra, having finished making the juice, notices Sneezer climbing up the fridge and catches the falling food. Before he can eat the cheese, Sneezer sneezes, blowing the kitchen away. He says "Bless me, I must have a little cold".

After lunch, Elmyra decides to give Sneezer a bath, giving him a rubber duck to play with. She leaves to go get a baby sponge, but Sneezer wants to play with the rubber duck, who has strayed to the deep end of the tub. He slips on a bar of soap, which knocks over a bottle of Acme bubble bath, flooding the bathtub with bubbles. Elmyra returns, shocked to find Sneezer gone. She tries to rescue him but slips on the bar of soap. She is relieved to find him in a bubble, but he sneezes and sends her and the bath water down the stairs. Elmyra reads a bedtime story to Sneezer as she puts him down for a nap. She fluffs his pillow, and a single feather flies out and tickles his nose. He sneezes, this time destroying her house. Sneezer wakes up and wants to play with Elmyra, but she is unconscious.

Meanwhile, Montana Max is having a swamp drainer installed for his pool, so he can drain the swamp and get free water for the pool. Plucky dives as his swamp is drained, so he dresses as the Toxic Revenger to find out where the swamp water is going. As the Toxic Revenger, Plucky returns the water to the swamp, but Monty, wise to his plan, steals the water back at full blast. He also catches the Toxic Revenger and demands Grovely to get rid of him.

To get revenge, Plucky invites his neighbors to Monty's pool. Outraged, Monty tries to drop an anvil on Plucky, but he tickles him with a party favor.
