Peter-No-Tail in Americat

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Peter-No-Tail in Americat (Swedish: Pelle Svanslös i Amerikatt, is a 1985 Swedish animation based on the stories about the tail-less cat Pelle Svanslös by Gösta Knutsson. The cartoon is a sequel to the 1981 cartoon Peter-No-Tail.

Peter-No-Tail (Pelle Svanslös) is a cat who was born without a proper tail. He compensates this by studying hard and, much to the dismay of his archrival Magnus (Måns), he receives a fancy univeristy degree very few cats in the university town Uppsala, Sweden have obtained. In the movie, he is visited by his American relative Pelle Swanson who invites him to visit his new home country America - in the movie called Americat. There everything is bigger, even the rats are much fatter.

The movie is mainly about what happens to someone from another country who is not used to the life in a big city. Nevertheless, Peter-No-Tail ís still a kind-hearted cat to everyone even if the other cats are not nice to him. Everything seems possible in America, even the prospect of finally having a proper tail and a sweetheart to call one's own.
