Synopsis

Poor old Pink is stuck out in the cold on a winter night; even his hot water bottle has ice cubes in it. His home is a park bench. He's trying to find a place to stay when he comes upon a warm-looking apartment. Through the window, he sees a warm fire and an empty room. He raises the window and warms himself by the fire. He looks around and sees stuffed animals everywhere. It turns out that the apartment belongs to a famous hunter, and when he discovers that the hunter's returned, he removes a stuffed lion and poses in its place, fooling the hunter, but not the hunter's dog, who gets suspicious. It's here that the Pink Panther must get rid of the dog however he can, and this is where the laughter begins!

Production notes

Not to be confused with the earlier Panther short "Sink Pink", which has a very similar title.

This cartoon is very similar the 1952 Daffy Duck and Porky Pig short "Cracked Quack."
