Synopsis:
Selina Kyle has opened a pet shop following her reformation. Crime lord Whale Morton tracks her down and attempts to lure her back to crime. When she refuses, Whale stages a series of cat related robberies in order to make Selina think she committed them. Catwoman then comes out of retirement to join Morton.

Catwoman crosses paths with Batman again. He wonders if she has returned to a life of crime. When he and Robin are captured, Selina arranges for them to free themselves and summons the police. She faked cooperation with Morton in order to get him to incriminate himself. Once the real crook is caught, Selina returns to her pet shop.
