A gang of eleven stray cats wreak havoc in a small town, costing them much trouble.
They defend themselves by stating they were just 'hungry'.
The cats hear of an urban legend about a scary, giant fish. They decide to take on the challenge to find and catch that fish, proving the citizens of the town that they're not all useless after all.
The task is pretty tricky and the path they have to cross is stony and danger lurks everywhere.
Will our little furry heroes be brave, confident and strong enough to master the challenge of challenges?

Where it came from
Eleven Cats, or '11-piki no Neko,' was released in 1980 by Group TAC, a studio known for its artistic contributions to Japanese animation during that era. The film serves as an adaptation of the beloved children's book series by Mitsumasa Baba, which began in the 1960s. The production was created to translate the whimsy and cautionary themes of Baba’s original illustrations into a motion picture format, capturing the mischievous nature of the titular feline group as they embark on an ambitious quest to catch a legendary giant fish.
The film’s design philosophy prioritized a faithful adherence to Baba’s distinctively simple yet expressive visual style. By utilizing the creative resources of Group TAC, the project aimed to maintain the gentle, episodic storytelling characteristic of the source material. Upon its release, it was received as a charming piece of family entertainment, celebrated for its preservation of the charm found in the original picture books and for its soft, pastel-toned aesthetic that defined much of the early animation work coming out of the studio at that time.
