Please help Mars find his forever home.

Mars is a six-toed kitten that loses his mommy and almost loses himself until he is rescued by Jared, a compassionate chipmunk with a contagious zest for life. In an attempt to lure Mars away from the darkness that threatens to overtake him, Jared tells Mars the story of how he won his wife's heart at a mushroom eating contest and offers to take him home to meet his family.

Mars, clinging to the hope that he will find his mommy, agrees to leave the only home he's ever known, and the duo discover an enchanting and mystical world filled with wonderful and frightening sights, sounds and an unforgettable cast of characters, both human and animal.

They embark on a fantastical journey encompassing the engine compartment of a big rig, a haunted cemetery, a village inhabited entirely by bears, a local amusement park and a ghost town destroyed by mine fires. The duo's adventure is full of twists and turns that celebrate the transformative power of love, loss, friendship, family and the ties that bind us together. Kindness, compassion for our fellow beings, forgiveness and redemption are a few of the Christian values woven throughout the theme of this timeless tale.
