Fievel is separated from his family once again, this time after leaving the harsh conditions of the big city for the wide open spaces of the old west. While looking for his family, he passes his old friend Tiger in the desert but they mistake each other for mirages and keep walking. Tiger becomes a god to a local Indian tribe while Fievel gets tricked into opening a saloon in town. Soon reunited with his family, they all must band together to stop the evil cats who are threatening their existence. Underrated animated feature is a frenetic, wild ride that feels more like a Warner Bros cartoon. Jimmy Stewart's final screen credit, as the voice of an old hound dog who literally rides into the sunset at the end, is bittersweet, but perfect.
