Viewers can join Nature Cat and his pals for an extra-special, hour-long Christmas movie.

Daisy, Hal and Squeeks are upset because Nature Cat’s desire to celebrate Christmas in a great BIG way is causing problems with their friendship as well as bothering all of the animals in the woods. It’s not until Nature Cat is visited by three Christmas Spirits that he finally sees the true meaning of Christmas.
