While out in the snow, Pluto hears meowing noises coming from a bag floating on a drifting ice floe.

Mickey angrily kicks a guilty Pluto out of the house for the remainder of the day as punishment for the mess he made and slams the door on him, causing snow to pile over him.

Hearing the kitten's cries, Mickey saves it and proceeds to take him home, but Pluto remains stuck in the well hanging from the rope (the ball that also fell in the well mysteriously disappears).

After receiving a nice hot bath from Mickey and a thank you lick from the kitten, Pluto is told by the angel "Kindness to animals, my friend, will be rewarded in the end."
