Porky Pig - Mouse Menace (1946)

I deinterlaced, cleaned & mastered so it looks pretty good.

Porky Pig tries various means to rid his home of a mouse.
Hired cats prove not to be up to the task of catching the rodent,
the mouse has ticked them off one by one, nor is a gangster,
with his weapons hidden in a violin case,
able to fulfil the contract, but a robotic cat gets the closest.

The mouse attempts to destroy the robot including short-circuiting, decapitation and subjection to heat,
only for the house itself to be destroyed in the process.
Despite this, Porky Pig is relieved to be rid of the mouse,
who then emerges to say "Shall I tell him?"

The gangster cat just is

No nationality..

This is also the only one with this cat..

Arthur Davis directed this one. He was sort of the forgotten director.

He was the pone that created the goofy gophers that have the British accent

Also he did Bowery Bugs, Jetsons, The Snorks& some of the pink panther toons.

He also did Bye Bye Bluebeard which is what you might be comparing this to.

it is posted here on youtube & there is a similarity in the characters.

I wonder if this cartoon was inspired by Tom and Jerry.
