Synopsis: 02/76 Fat Freddy's Cat is telling his nephews about the time he saved the world from Aliens. It starts off with Phineas Phreak returning from the carnival with Fat Freddy after winning a stuffed pig in overalls after spending $26 in quarters. The pig has a pull string music box that sings "Old MacDonald" when pulled. Fat Freddy exclaims his cat could do that too if he had a music box in him. Phineas and Freewheelin' Franklin grab him and hold up a knife. Fat Freddy panics and they tell him they weren't going to cut open the cat. They just intend to put the music box from the pig in some overalls and cut a hole for Fat Freddy's Cat's tail. They put it on the cat and pull the string whuch causes Fat Freddy's Cat to freak out and leap into the air and around the room causing Fat Freddy's ice cream cone to land and lodge over Fat Freddy's Cat's head with the hotdog stuck on top reminiscent of a cresent moon. The cat tears out of the house and down the street. A spaceship with bloblike aliens with antennas coming out of their heads with eyeballs at the top abduct him. He can't tell what's going on but one of them exclaims "What's the matter, thexl got your tongue" which has the cat realizing he's probably in trouble. They pull his string and Old MacDonald starts to play. They recognize it as their national anthem. The cat poops and they find it on the floor and it is apparently the purest fuel they've ever seen. They surmise that he and the other inhabitants must be more advanced than they thought and they decide that they better not make him angry. They give him an amulet that grants him 3 wishes and a sacred gleek for his personal mount, all the while he still can't see anything with the ice cream on his head. They set him free on the gleek which looks like a jabberwocky (long ringed neck with dragon like head and 8 legs with two giant wings. His first wish is used up when he says "I wish I could see what's going on" and the ice cream disappears and he sees what he's flying on. His second wish is he wishes the gleek was stuffed and roasted so he could eat it since there's no way he could bring it back home with him. He struts back into the Freak Brother's home and Phineas exclaims that he looks fatter than ever and must've traded his overalls for what looks like a magic amulet. Fat Freddy puts the amulet on and exclaims "Well, I'll be dipped in d0gsh!t" with a grinning cat looking at him as he says it. The rest of the issue is a series of one pagers with Fat Freddy's Cat interacting with various animals and other cats. One overlaying theme involves the Freak Brothers thinking he messed with their stash and after they beat him up, he is laying on the floor and sees their stash being smoke by mice with the pipe etc laying on their mouse furniture. He stows away on their van as they take a trip to Mexico and interacts with the locals and wanders around lost til he is once again found and picked up by Fat Freddy who always happens to be driving by at the end of the issues and is happy that he "found his cat"
