Summary:
Say cheese: The Nutmegs decide to have a family portrait taken - including Heathcliff. Every time the photographer tells the group to 'say cheese', mice appear and Heathcliff dashes to catch them, leaving the studio a shames in his wake. Meow Meow island: During an afternoon of deepsea fishing, Heathcliff and the Nutmegs land their boat on a small island for a picnic and he soon learns the island is inhabited by a tribe of wild cats called Meow Meows. These savages capture the Nutmegs, but Heathcliff cleverly rescues them from being sacrified in a native ritual. Be prepared: When Heathcliff tires to follow Iggy to a Boy Scout camp, the scout master forbids it, saying 'A common house cat could never survive in the wild.' This infuriates Iggy's pet, who sneaks along anyway just to prove the scout master wrong. Even though Heathcliff gets in all kinds of mischief in the wilderness, he leads the group to safety when they get lost in the woods, so he becomes the first cat ever to be names 'Scout of the Year'! Heathcliff gets canned: After discovering several empty cat food cans in the Nutmeg pantry, Heathcliff decides to go to the cat food cannery to complain. There he defeats a vicious guard dog in battle, and manages to ge himself appointed cannery guard by the foreman! The new station is short-lived, however, when what begins as a picnic with the Catillac Cats in the factory turns into a free-for-all, and the old guard dog returns to seek his revenge.
