Description

A country boy (Jay North) of roughly twelve years of age is forced by his parents to move into the city and abandon his pet mountain lion in the process.

The lion, of course, is smuggled into town but only to be quickly caged. Not pleased with the zoo's conditions, the lad eventually frees the animal, as well as all the others there kept, which then take a zany romp through town.

Notes

Notes: Jay North will forever be remembered for giving life to the comic strip hellion "Dennis the Menace" (1959) on TV. He went from top child star to has-been teen in only a few short years, and had a terrible time adjusting. He went through years of personal turmoil and emotional anguish (divorces, drug experimentation, weight gain) before his recovery.

Reportedly abused and mishandled during his peak years by on-set relatives/caretakers, Jay has since been instrumental in providing advice and counseling to other professional child/teen stars in the same boat. For more info on Jay, 'click' on his name below.
