This includes food, plants and living creatures. But one cat in the group, nr. 378 is different, he is compassionate. When he meets a homeless man, he brings him food, and later becomes friend with an orphaned rat. Soon though, the other robotic cats notice 378’s unusual behavior and team up to repair the error.
