Mr. Hullabaloo is a whimsical character who has a deep love for singing. His heart's favorite melody traces back to a song he sang at the tender age of two: "Mommy's daddy is grandma, grandma's daddy is mommy."
But what makes Mr. Hullabaloo truly unique is his love for moving, all because of a certain straw-hat cat painted on the side of the moving company's enormous truck. Whenever the longing for the cat's company tugs at his heart, he embarks on a new adventure, taking with him his cherished song.
