The film starts with a canary watching Tom chasing Jerry. The canary decides to intervene, and teams up with Jerry against Tom. The canary escapes from his cage by unlatching the base of the cage, which falls onto Tom, flattening his head. Tom pursues Jerry and the bird together, chasing them into Jerry’s mousehole, into which Tom’s face gets caught, elongating his nose.

After some time, Jerry allows the canary to fly back to his birdcage, but Tom suddenly appears from behind a sofa, mouth wide open, and the bird flies into Tom’s mouth. Jerry retrieves the bird by using a hammer to break Tom’s teeth, freeing the bird from his prison. As Tom snatches Jerry in his hand, the canary traps Tom’s tail under the floorboards. In pain, Tom leaps up, and smacks his head on the cage, causing it to fall down on his head and onto the floor.


Jerry and the bird trick Tom by dressing as an Indian and later making him think he was shot (the canary grabs a gun, but the “shot” is performed by Jerry dropping a lightbulb) and then Tom sees from mirror his grave.Tom riding on top of a toy train, advancing towards Jerry.
Tom catches Jerry and ties him to a toy train track. The concerned canary drops a bowling ball from a bag, just before Tom hits Jerry with the toy train that he is riding. The bowling ball forms a deep hole through the railroad and the ground, in which the train plunges with Tom still aboard. The short ends with Jerry and the canary riding on the bird cage swing, whistling My Blue Heaven
