THE HOUSE OF MAGIC (U)
Starring the voices of: Murray Blue, Eugene Levy, George Babbit, Shanelle Gray. Directors: Jeremy Degruson, Ben Stassen.
GINGER tabby cat Thunder (voiced by Murray Blue) is abandoned by his owners at the roadside.
The heavens open and Thunder seeks refuge from the downpour in a ramshackle mansion owned by a retired magician called Lawrence, who performed under the moniker The Illustrious Lorenzo.
The magician’s two performing animals, Jack the rabbit (George Babbit) and Maggie the mouse (Shanelle Gray), view Thunder as a threat and they attempt to shoo the pussy back into the storm.
But once their moggie-loving master catches sight of Thunder, he welcomes the homeless kitty to his new home. Lawrence is subsequently involved in a traffic accident and recuperates in hospital.
The old man’s scheming nephew Daniel (Grant George) hatches a scheme to despatch his uncle to Rhode Island Senior Retirement Home and sell the house for vast profit.
