But it turned out that it already has an owner - a ginger cat who is not at all happy with his new neighbors and does not hide it. Attempts to catch and evict the furry pest fail one after another. The head of the family, Mikhail, is ready to take a decisive step to get rid of the cat, but he accidentally steps on a damaged extension cord, and they receive a powerful electric shock.

Under new circumstances, the Myagkovs decide to leave the cat in the house, and from that moment on, the life of an ordinary Moscow family changes.
