English Colonel Rimfire reads that a circus offers $1000 for a live tiger. Rimfire decides to deliver Cool Cat, the hip tiger, to the circus and collect the money, but Cool Cat won’t cooperate with Rimfire and leads the Colonel on a chase, straight into the circus, where the Colonel is clobbered for not having an admission ticket. After paying for a ticket and gaining legitimate entry into the big top, Rimfire chases Cool Cat through all the circus acts, including the Indian Snake Charmer, the trained seal, the human cannon ball, the fire eater, and the high wire.
