About the title
A young cat named Vincent, together with a mouse named Maurice, escapes a flood inside an antique harpsichord, which is picked up by sailors and sent to Saint Petersburg, where it ends up in the Hermitage. There Vincent meets an elite squad of cats that has guarded works of art from mice and other pests for centuries. Vincent dreams of finding a real cat family, but doesn't want to lose his friend Maurice, who saved his life. Vincent has to hide his friend, who also has one "little weakness" — Maurice loves to nibble on masterpieces of painting. The situation becomes as complicated as possible when one of humanity's greatest paintings, the "Mona Lisa," arrives at the Hermitage — gnawing on it is the dream of every mouse. But neither Vincent, nor Maurice, nor the cats of the Hermitage suspect that the painting is about to be stolen. And now Vincent will have to show all his cunning and courage to save the masterpiece, protect the museum's honor, and win the love of a cat named Cleopatra from the Egyptian hall.
