What happens

Gay Purr-ee is a 1962 American animated musical film produced by United Productions of America and released by Warner Bros. Pictures. It features the voice of Judy Garland as Mewsette, a cat living in the French countryside wanting to go to Paris, and Robert Goulet as her love interest Jaune Tom. It was Garland's only animated-film role and Goulet's first feature film. It was the first animated feature film to be theatrically released by Warner Bros., and the second and final animated film by UPA. The film received positive reviews but was a box office failure.
