While Charlie Brown is training Catty to do "cat" stuff, he meets up with his friend Linus, in which Linus thinks that there is something suspicious after Catty. Linus tells Charlie Brown about the Cat Pageant Show after the Dog Pageant Show and decides to take Catty there. Then, the guard from the zoo puts of posters of the cat being missing. Linus gets one of the posters and believes that Catty is an dangerous creature sent to kill pets and kids, so he goes to warn Charlie Brown before having Lucy call him for lunch. 
Having no choice, Linus then goes to him and Lucy's house to have some of his mother's delicious turkey and cheese. Charlie Brown and Catty than arrive at the Cat Pageant Show where Charlie Brown signs 50 papers to audition. During this, Catty attacks the other cats there. But the other cats survive, and two minutes later, Charlie Brown gets into the finalists, in which he has to sit in the waiting room until the pageant can start a 7:50pm. After Linus finishes eating his food, he tries to warn Charlie Brown about Catty, but becomes interested in a store full of blankets. The pageant then starts in which it is 7:50pm which includes all of the cats including Catty.
Linus, who got 20 blankets from the blanket store, looks on his imagination watch and realizes that it's 7:50pm, and then goes to the pageant with the picture of Catty. Then, three other cats have done their talents while Catty is next. Charlie Brown is about to send Catty into there, but Linus interrupts the project and tells Charlie Brown that Catty is a dangerous beast. This causes the people (including Peppermint Patty and Marcie) to panic. One person calls the FBI and the guard from the zoo, in which both of them comes.
Charlie Brown, who is disappointed at Linus, says: "You can't judge somebody for who they are or what they is, and the fact is, you can't always judge somebody for who they are unless if you learn about them." Linus then becomes sad about this and slaps himself in the face five times. They hide under a bench as the FBI arrive in the room. To distract the FBI and the guard while Charlie Brown and Catty exit the building, Linus uses his never-before seen invisibility cloak and draws an ugly drawing of Catty, which the FBI and the guard from the zoo chase Linus while Charlie Brown and Catty (in which Catty is disguised as a little kid). Charlie Brown and Catty then exit the building where they bump into an FBI guard. The guard, believing that Catty is Charlie Brown's little brother, tells Charlie Brown to keep Catty safe before giving Catty a lollipop and sending them off. 
Sometime later, finally realizing that Linus was right, and knowing that he can no longer keep her as a pet, Charlie Brown then decides to have Catty transported safely back to the zoo. Catty, who wants to stay with him, wants to stay with him still, But Charlie Brown promises her that he will always come and visit her whenever he and his family visit the zoo. In tears, Charlie Brown hugs and nuzzles Catty, and then takes one last picture with her before safely sending her back to the zoo. Saddened by this, Charlie Brown then walks home when it is 9:20pm. Meanwhile, Linus, who is back home then takes off of his invisibility cloak before getting into a fight with Lucy and then literally slugs her and tells her off like she has never been before, much to her shock and horror.
Then at Sally and Charlie Brown's house, Charlie Brown, who is about to go to sleep, kisses Catty in their final picture, before going to bed, with Catty standing outside his window and taking one last look and smiling at him before heading back to the zoo.
