The girl Rosie had long dreamed of a kitten, but her mother never agreed. So Rosie went to a nearby farm and watched the kittens living there. She especially liked one, a bright red one, whom she called to herself - Ryzhik. But one day the farm was sold, and all the cats were taken away by shelter employees. Rosie was very scared that she would never see Ryzhik again, and even persuaded her mother to take him in with her. But when they arrived at the shelter, it turned out that Ryzhik was not there! Where did he go? And where to look for it? Isn't it possible that little red happiness will settle in Rosie's house?
