Plot[]
Fievel befriended Mrs. Brisby and they share each other's things. Little did they know that the Brisbies and the Mousekewitzes had a little situation. One day, both of the two families went on a vacation to the states of Toontown. There they encounter new foes (such as Cat R. Waul), old friends (such as Baloo), and new friends (such as Roger Rabbit). In Toontown, Cat R. Waul and his gang have built a giant mousetrap (which is responsible for turning 45 mice from Green River and 3 members of the Mousekewitz family into mouseburgers) disguised as bleachers for a ceremony honoring the opening of Cat R. Waul's Casino, and tricked Mama and Papa by cutting the red ribbon with his golden scissors. Fievel tried to stop them, but it was too late. One night, Mrs. Brisby found Fievel crying outside of the hotel. She asked him what happened to his family, and Fievel told her that Cat R. Waul turned his family into mouseburgers, and he's an orphan. Mrs. Brisby knew this day will come and prepares to adopt Fievel as a new family member of her family, so she decided to take him with her. They arrived at the hotel, and Mrs. Brisby puts Fievel to bed, and sings him a lullaby. While Tanya (who is now in Cat R. Waul's clutches, also an orphan) watched Cat R. Waul and his gang propose a toast to their success, Mrs. Brisby told Fievel that Tanya is still alive and somewhere out there. The next day, Fievel and Mrs. Brisby are walking in a park. They met Fievel's love interest Cholena, who came to visit him. Meanwhile, Tanya grew tired of her show business and went out for a walk. She found Fievel, and Fievel told her that their family were eaten by Cat R. Waul and his gang. The sad little mice both walked to the hotel, but they saw the cats stealing the Brisby siblings along with Auntie Shrew instead of Mrs. Brisby, Timmy and Cholena. Fievel and Tanya followed. At Cat R. Waul's lair, he and the cats decide to drop the Brisbies into a hot pot. Baloo came charging in and fought the cats. Fievel came and set the Brisbies free. As the cats followed the heroes in hot pursuit, they stopped at a train track. Cat R. Waul had Mrs. Brisby and Fievel cornered, but he and his men got dragged away by a train where Lena Hyena is on board. Tanya becomes a famous singer again (although she also appears to be happy with the way she was before by the end). Tanya and Fievel moved in with the Brisby family and they all traveled back to the 100 Acre Wood.
