A leopard, a stray dog, and a widow walk into 1968 California... chaos ensues.
A young widow who has a way with animals moves to Northern California and is asked to care for the local strays. A wreck of a circus truck sets a menagerie of circus animals free, and she has to use all her wits to catch them. Only a leopard eludes her, and he is befriended by a local renegade dog. Eventually she is able to trap them and she trains them to be in her animal act.
