Monty Citymouse invites his cousin Abner Countrymouse for a visit and shows him the ways of the big city, including traps, eating quietly, and busy traffic.
When his cousin from the sticks decides not to be an hick and come to the slickness of the city to stay with his cousin, “Abner” arrives and is immediately causing chaos as he’s let loose on a grand dining table where he quickly discovers that mustard and champagne don’t mix! Terrified that he is going to wreck the place, “Monty” tries to reign him in and that just introduces him to a very hungry cat who, as it turns out, isn’t immune to large voltages! It’s end-to-end stuff with loads of cheekily detailed animation whizzing along and though perhaps it plays a little too much to the country bumpkin stereotype, there’s still plenty of enjoyable mischief on display here.
