With limited living space and food decreasing every year, the tanuki begin fighting among themselves for the diminishing resources, but at the urging of the matriarch Oroku ("Old Fireball"), they decide to unify to stop the development.

Sylvestre parvient, en fermant les stores, à attraper Titi. C'est alors qu'il est interrompu par un autre chat pourpre, à la fois timide et savant. Il lui explique que ses envies continues de dévorer le canari représentent un signe de faiblesse personnelle profonde, et que la seule façon pour lui de surmonter cette faiblesse est d'arrêter définitivement cette dépendance. Croyant qu'il a besoin de secours, Sylvestre rejoint fièrement le collectif des « mangeurs d'oiseaux anonymes », réunissant les chats qui veulent surmonter leur dépendance aux oiseaux. Cependant, cette volonté commence à se dissiper après une courte période, principalement en raison de la tentation constante qu'a pu avoir Sylvestre, qui a toujours vécu dans la même maison que Titi.

Manor Farm is a formerly prosperous farm that has fallen on hard times, and suffers under the now-ineffective leadership of its drunken and aggressive owner, Mr. Jones. One night, Old Major, the prize boar and the second-oldest on the farm, calls the animals on the farm for a meeting, where he compares the humans to parasites and encourages the animals to break free from their tyrant's influence, while reminding them that they must hold true to their convictions after they have gained freedom. With that, he teaches the animals a revolutionary song, before collapsing dead mid-song to the animals' horror.

The film takes place in the Jewish community of Algeria during the 1920s. One day a Rabbi finds that his talking parrot, which is very noisy, has been eaten by his cat and that the cat has gained the ability to speak in human tongues. However, the Rabbi finds that the cat is very rude and arrogant, so the rabbi teaches the cat about the Torah, with the cat deciding that if he is Jewish then he should receive a bar mitzvah, leading the two to consult with the rabbi's rabbi. The cat proceeds to mock and insult the rabbi's rabbi's strict views, who declares that the cat should be killed for its heresy. The rabbi takes his cat and leaves, mad at the cat for making a fool of his master, but the two eventually reach an agreement where the rabbi will teach the cat all about the Torah, and that someday he might have his bar mitzvah when he is ready.
