action

Mickey and Minnie are planning a peaceful Christmas Eve with their dog Pluto . The tree is decorated, Minnie plays the piano and sings Silent Night, Holy Night and Pluto sleeps by the fireplace. Meanwhile, a hooded figure comes through the snow, looks through the mouse family's window and puts a basket in front of the door of the house. She rings the doorbell and hurries away - Pluto brings in the basket.

First, Micky takes a little kitten from the basket and shows it to Minnie enthusiastically. It quickly turns out that there are dozens of kittens in the basket. You quickly turn the entire apartment upside down, use Pluto's ears as a swing, drive the bird out of its cage and use the banister as a slide. Mickey tries to keep things calm as Santa Claus. He appears disguised as Santa Claus on a rocking chair pulled by "Reindeer" Pluto , but the presents he has brought with him cause even more chaos. The kittens form a parade, the gift saws and children's pistols lead to destroyed furniture and vases. In the end, Mickey and Minnie reveal the richly decorated Christmas tree. He is immediately taken over by the kittens - what remains is an empty tree framework and a stunned pair of mice.
