The film begins with Kaldorf, a powerful and wise wizard banishing a wicked witch named Drizelda for her evil deeds and mistreating her niece, Athena, for the last time. Drizelda tries to make Athena come with her but Athena decides to stay with Kaldorf. Drizelda tries to turn everyone into wart ogres but Kaldorf uses his magic staff to throw Drizelda far away into a volcano. The elves celebrate their Harvest Festival. Athena and her new pets Tom (as a baby kitten) and Jerry (as a newborn baby mouse) are raised by Kaldorf.

Years later, Athena grows into a beautiful young elf, Tom becomes a full grown cat and Jerry becomes a cute young mouse, and they have opened a business called Athena's Home For Unwanted Animals. Athena leaves for the town to get food and some donations for their home and leaves Tom and Jerry in charge of the place. Tom and Jerry try to stop a hyperactive boar called Buster from going into the town. Meanwhile, Athena is not liked by the elves because she is related to Drizelda. After a few minutes of being liked after helping a donkey, Buster, Tom and Jerry accidentally destroy some of the work the town have been preparing for the Harvest Festival which causes Athena to run back home in tears. Back at their home, Athena promises the animals that she will find somewhere where they belong.

In the forest, Drizelda's hench cats, Tin, Pan and Alley head for an old cave full of treasure. While the other two cats take some treasure, Tin gets a big egg that looks like a pearl for Drizelda. They are attacked by a dragon who chases them out. The fire burns Tin's bag and the egg falls out and lands on a lily pad rolling down the river. Meanwhile Athena is busy washing the animals and sends Tom and Jerry into the forest to get water. Tom and Jerry discover the egg on the lily pad and decide to take back home.

Tin, Pan and Alley return to Drizelda but discover that the egg is gone. Drizelda becomes angry at them because that egg could help her in her plans to takeover the town, Hamlet. She turns them into cat-like-bat creatures to search for the egg.

Tom and Jerry have brought the egg back to their home and Athena gets Tom to sit on the egg. She looks through an egg encyclopedia and discovers that it's a dragon egg. Shortly the egg hatches and the baby dragon mistakes Tom for his mother. Athena decides to call it Puffy and decides to talk to Kaldorf the next day of what to do with it. While everyone is sleeping the real mother of Puffy searches for her baby.

The next day, Tom and Jerry fight while they are supposed to be looking after Puffy. Puffy heads into the town believing Tom to have left there. Tom and Jerry manage to keep Puffy out of sight. Athena meets Kaldorf who tells her to take him back into the wild where he belongs or else Athena will be banished. Athena tells Tom and Jerry to take Puffy back to their place while she gets a cage to keep him in. Tom refusing to keep the baby leaves to do what Kaldorf told them to do. Jerry stops Tom in time before they are attacked by Tin, Pan and Alley. Tom and Jerry save Puffy and head back to the town.

Athena comes back home but finds that Tom and Jerry are not home with Puffy and heads back to town to find them. When she arrives at the festival, Drizelda appears revealing that there is a baby dragon in the town. She also reveals that Puffy's mother is also looking for him and Puffy see's the dragon as his real mother. Drizelda abducts the baby and takes him back to her lair. She tries to get Puffy to blow fire into a magical stone necklace or do it the hard way. After Puffy refuses to do it by blowing a raspberry, Drizelda has Tin, Pan and Alley put pepper spray on him making him sneeze fire into the stone necklace. As Puffy's fire goes into the gem, he turns to stone. When Drizelda puts the necklace on, she turns into a dragon. Tin, Pan and Alley were back to normal again thanks to Drizelda’s transformation and they run out of her lair too.

As Athena, Tom and Jerry are heading for Drizelda's lair to save Puffy, they are attacked by Puffy's mother. They convince her that they have been taking good care of him. Meanwhile, Drizelda arrives at the town to destroy the town Hamlet and Kaldorf. Athena, Tom and Jerry with Puffy's mother arrive before Kaldorf can be eaten. Puffy's mother and Drizelda fight but Puffy's mother accidentally blows fire into the stone necklace and becomes a statue. Kaldorf tells them that the stone necklace should be destroyed. Athena, Tom, Jerry and the other animals fight Drizelda and manage to get the necklace off of her. Athena, Tom and Jerry destroy the gem in time. After the necklace is destroyed, Puffy and his mother are turned back to normal while Drizelda becomes a statue herself. Athena and the animals are celebrated as heroes and have finally found a place to call home.

After the credits roll, the statue of Drizelda is shown blowing smoke at a bird from her nose telling it to not even think about it, meaning that she is alive in the statue.
