When a cat dies, its story isn't really over, because it has the right to nine lives! But each of these lives, he must deserve it and only the Superior Cat has the power to grant it to him. So, when you're a cat who likes to lie, steal and play tricks, it's not always easy to be given a new life! Clochat meets Palourd, a big, very greedy alley cat. The two friends move into a huge fir tree in the heart of the forest, unaware that it is precisely the one that will soon be installed in front of the Rockefeller Center, in New York!
