Een ruimteschip landt op de aarde en wordt meteen in beslag genomen door de Amerikaanse overheid. De piloot van het schip, een kat, weet te ontsnappen, en kan door middel van zijn halsband communiceren met de mensen. De kat slaagt erin Frank Wilson te overtuigen om hem te helpen zodat hij weer terug naar zijn planeet kan.
Nee, helaas is De Kat van de Melkweg nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
