[2] The short uses the standard formula outlined in For Scent-imental Reasons (1949), where a female black cat named Penelope Pussycat accidentally acquires a white stripe down her back, which attracts an amorous and hopelessly romantic skunk, Pepé Le Pew, who mistakes her for another skunk.
The human characters and signage in the animation use Franglais to signal to an American audience that the cartoon takes place in France, with the heavily accented Pepé Le Pew resembling actor Charles Boyer.
Her black and white appearance however attracts the attention of Pepé Le Pew, who, after some flirting, receives a mauling for his effrontery, due to wildcats attacking victims that come too close to them.
The wildcat hides inside a fortune teller's hut and Pepé, disguised as a swami, predicts to her that she will meet a fine gentleman.
Pepé appears beside her again and he receives one final mauling, taking a moment to sign off the cartoon with "If you have not tried it, do not knock it..." as the balloon floats upwards into the sky.
