A widower (Ontkean) and his teen daughter (Page) move into a house that was once owned by the friendly Mrs. Ashboro and her pet cat, Margaret. Strange things begin happening, and it soon becomes clear that the ghost of Mrs. Ashboro's cat Margaret, who died on the same day as its owner, is haunting the house.

At the time of its airing, critic Gail Pennington wrote, "Ghost Cat is no Mystic River, but it's sweet and suitable for the whole family."
