Separated from his family by a fire, the young wildcat, Moto, finds a new home with Suzi in her bush camp. As she nurtures him, teaching him to hunt and survive, their bond grows. But as Moto learns the skills he needs to thrive in the wild, Suzi faces the bittersweet challenge of letting him go. Will Moto succeed in the wild, and can Suzi say goodbye to the creature she has come to love?
