"The cat was uneasy. He had a strange feeling he was being followed. There was nothing in sight, yet his sense told him there was something there, something evil." - Narrator

Why watch this? This family action film is, well, incredible! All set in the American wilderness.

Plot Summary: Three family pets – a young Labrador Retriever, Luath, an older Bull Terrier, Bodger, and a Siamese cat, Tao – are left with a friend while their owners go on vacation. Missing their family, the trio escape and embark on a long, challenging journey through the Canadian wilderness to find their way home. Faced with a vast and unfamiliar landscape, the animals must overcome various perils and rely on each other to survive.

Dad's Preview: In the 50's and 60's, Disney was second-to-none regarding films featuring animals, such as Old Yeller (1957) and Swiss Family Robinson (1960). Here the excitement comes from our heroic animals as they encounter an angry mother bear, a raging river, a porcupine, and cold wintry conditions. Your heart-strings will be maxed out as our traveling trio trudges on to get home. Can they survive the journey? Will it be too much for that old terrier?
