Juvenile fun with a weak plot, thin performances, but with a very cute and appealing mouse. A couple wants to adopt a child, but there are so many to choose from at the adoption agency. However, there is a little white mouse there that appeals to this couple the most, despite the fact that he is of a different species. So they bring this mouse home much to the dismay of his new human brother and the house cat. An enjoyable kiddie flick that parents ought to enjoy as well even though the premise is idiotic.
