A newspaperman relates the stories written by a very literate cockroach, Archy, as he jumps up and down on the keys of his typewriter. Archy writes about what he knows best -- the lives and loves of the citizens of Shinbone Alley. There is Tyrone T. Tattersol, the Actor Cat; Broadway the Lightening Bug, Archy's "flashy" friend; Big Bill, the Tom Cat an unfaithful lover of Archy's favorite -- Mehitabel, the capricious Alley Cat. Mehitabel's zest for life is forever getting her into trouble and in a misguided attempt to help, Archy finally convinces her to become a house cat. The consequences are disastrous.
