The cat came over to D.W. and she falls in love with the cat. D.W. wants to keep the cat, but her dad says that her owner might miss the cat and Arthur explains that what would happen if your pet is lost. D.W. is so much in love with it that she did not care about if Pal or her dead bird Spanky were lost also.

Arthur and Buster put up signs all over the neighborhood, while D.W. plays with the cat. D.W. learns that night that her cat is not all the cute and glammer. She learns that cats have bad breath (Tuna Breath), sand paper tungs and they have a lot of energy and like stay up all night (Nocturnal).

Her dad says maybe they should bring the cat to the vets so they can look after her till the cat owners claims her, D.W. gets upset and holds the cat in her arms while the cat fights her way to her food. Emily comes over and D.W. wants to show her the new cat.

D.W. finds a long rope of yarn. They follow the yarn to the basement of the house where at the other end was a attached to scratched up doll. D.W. freaksout at the doll and throws it to Emily, when the cat jumps out of the corner and right into D.W.'s arms.

Emily is so scared that she wants to go home. The next day, D.W. wakes up finds the cat a sleep on the blanket on the floor. She grabs her teddy bare and finds that it and all her stuff in the room scratched up.

That over night the cat used her things as a scratching posts. That day Arthur and D.W. was at the video store D.W. tells Arthur that the cat is not real. Arthur says that she is just "Frisky", when she grows up she will settle down.

D.W. sees another movie called The Cat Strikes at Night. Arthur tells her that it is not a movie she would like to see. Meaning it is a horror movie. That night, D.W. had a nightmare where the cat was a giant and had hug claws and it was about to attack her when she woke up, she saw the cat on her bed and she ran away to the living room, hiding behind the piano. The kitten jumps onto the piano keys, and appears to be "playing the piano."

Then, Arthur and D.W."s parents rush into the living room, after hearing her screams. After coming out from behind the piano, D.W, tell them that she was in a scary cat movie. While trying to comfort D.W, the doorbell rings. David, D.W's father, answers it.  It is Dr. Fugue.  He asks David, if by any chance, they had found a missing kitten. David says that they had and invites him into the house.

Everyone is surprised to find out that the kitten belongs to Dr. Fugue. His response is "Yes, though she is not the finest piano student.  Are you, you Fur Elise?" He then explains that the kitten is named after a piece of Beethoven's. He begins playing the piano and explains that he had been away to Austria at an acadamy. He had returned that night and found Fur Elise missing.

D.W. states that Furry, the kitten's nickname, is the most scary, crazy kitty. Dr. Fugue agrees with her, but says that he finds music can soothe the savage beast, Fur Elise's particularly. D.W. then realizes that Fur Elise had first come to her when she was playing her xylophone. She begins playing it again and the kitten comes to her. Dr. Fugue says she even likes out of tune toy music.

When Dr. Fugue is about to leave with Furry, D.W. puts up a slight protest. Dr. Fugue solves this by saying D.W. could visit the kitten whenever she wanted, but only if she could learn how to play her xylophone more "melodiously".

D.W. begins playing again, a little better this time. Dr. Fugue sighs and says, "It's a start."

The screen then zooms out, Dr. Fugue's piano and D.W.'s xylophone still being able to be heard in the background.
