At the turn of the 20th century, a young mouse named Fievel and his family leave their home to migrate to America, which they believe to be a place free of cats. However, during the journey, Fievel becomes separated from his family and arrives in the United States alone. In this new and unfamiliar environment, he must navigate the dangers posed by cats, which he thought he had escaped, while also coping with the challenges of loneliness and being far from home.
