The story of our Mury the Cat miniseries revolves around renowned poet and writer Kajetan Kovič's beloved literary creation, Mury the Cat. The series incorporates songs from the well known musical album about Mury, as performed by Neca Falk. It combines this classic soundtrack with the established but visually reimagined characters and fresh new twists, that will put a smile on any viewer's face, regardless of age.

In the altogether five (5) episodes, we'll journey to Cat City, starting on a very special day - Missy's birthday.

In first episode, the day begins as usual: "...listen now, the clock is striking, time for Mury to be waking..." Luckily, Mury has his friend Miki the inventor to remind him to wish Catsy a happy birthday. Mury wants to surprise her with something special, so he invites her for lunch. Catsy enthusiastically accepts..

 

In the second episode, Mury takes a stroll to the main square, where he has a date with Catsy. On the way there, he's the victim of a little prank by the rascal Cheeky, who "hides his face behind a cloak, in his paws the crackers smoke." Lucky for Mury, his stroll ends on a happy note, as they finally head to lunch with Catsy.

In the third episode, we meet Cat City's greatest chef - Jean, who fries "livers and the brain, roasting fish, cooking crabs, fancy steaks and posh sauces." When it's time for lunch, however, Jean bolts out of his restaurant, scared for his life. It turns out the place is supposedly haunted! A courageous group of cats led by Mury decide to save the day, and not a moment too soon - everyone, including Catsy, is very hungry.

In the fourth part, a tense soccer match is unfolding at the Cat Stadium. The Kitties, with Captain Muri at the helm, are facing off against the Big Cats, who surprise this year with a new captain, the muscular Scoundrel. He has a whole series of tricks up his sleeve with which he wants to prevent the Kitties from winning. But will he succeed, or will he 'get caught in his own traps'?

In the latest fifth part, Cat City is brimming with excitement due to the upcoming dance, but Muri and the gang fear that the mayor, with his clumsiness, will ruin their beautiful evening again. Together, they devise a plan to prevent this from happening.

The colourful residents of Cat City are voiced by a cast of noted Slovenian actors:
