Plot[]

The movie begins with Ziggy, a pirate cat wanting to sail on his ship across the seven seas, but Bigpaw tells him not to. While Bigpaw and Lenny have a conversation, Ziggy, with the help of Daniel M. Pipsqueak, sneaks away from him and begins to sail his ship. During the journey, though. Ziggy tries to make his way through the storm, but his ship gets destroyed, resulting in him floating on a piece of driftwood. After several days, Ziggy passes out due to thirst is then washed up on an island and taken in and nursed back to health by Triton, a hawk, Phillip, an armadillo, and Ali, a crocodile. Ali then leads a hungry Ziggy to a papaya tree, but while he eats, TJ confronts Ziggy for eating papayas and Triton for allowing him on the island, with Furball, an elephant, following behind. Ziggy and TJ Foxx nearly get into a sword fight, but are stopped by Triton. Afterwards, Ziggy meets Sam and Ham, while TJ Foxx has a fight with him over whose island it is. That night, Ziggy is unable to sleep due to various howls. The howls turn out to be from the Savage Beast. Ziggy then flees from the Savage Beast, but is then cornered by the latter. After the Savage Beast bites Ziggy's arm, Ziggy swings his sword, and threatens to hurt him if he ever goes near him, causing the Savage Beast to flee in terror. Later, Triton, having watched the fight, bandages up Ziggy's arm and takes him back to bed. Three months later, Ziggy, solemnly remembering memories of his his crew, delivers a message to them in a bottle. After his friends realize that Ziggy is not a pirate captain, he becomes severly discouraged and runs away into the jungle. After Triton finds him, he reveals to Ziggy that he used to be a pirate captain, and all of the Locals were his sea mates, which encourages Ziggy. TJ calls Ziggy an immature and chases him to a high cliff. The two have a swordfight, and Ziggy nearly falls off of a cliff, but grabs onto a rope. TJ corners him and tells him that he is not a real pirate, causing Ziggy to be enraged and come up to make TJ grab onto the cliff's rope. Ziggy then cuts the rope, getting TJ to fall to his death. As the movie ends, Ziggy has not yet gotten off of the island, but hopes to do so.
