It's Christmas time at the Mouse house, with Mickey decorating the Christmas tree while Minnie plays the piano and sings carols and [[WesternAnimation/PlutoThePup Pluto]] sleeps by the fire. A stooped old woman stops at the front door, leaves a basket, and rings the bell. Mickey opens the door, picks up the basket, and is surprised to find a kitten peeking out from under the top blanket. As Mickey and Minnie coo over the kitten, Pluto whips the blanket off the basked, revealing something like two dozen kittens.
