Porfirio is a cat — a couch potato, a philosopher, a family pet, just a regular cat happily living with an ordinary family in a city. His lazy life is interrupted when his little owner is sent to the countryside to live with her grandparents for the summer. Naturally, she takes her best friend Porfirio with her.

For an urban cat, the village is a nightmare! Instead of pillows and blankets you get a pile of straw in the barn; instead of canned cat food on schedule you have to search for something to eat. And those terrible local cats could upset anyone... but not Porfirio! He will prove to these village cats that urban cats are worth something!
