This enchanting tale begins in Paris, when a kind and eccentric millionairess wills her entire estate to her family a family of adorable high-society cats. But when Edgar, the greedy butler, overhears her plan, he catnaps Duchess, the elegant, soft-spoken mother, and her three mischievous kittens and abandons them in the French countryside. Soon, they re being escorted home by the charming Thomas O Malley, a rough-and-tumble alley cat, who takes them to his pad along the way, where Scat Cat and his band of swingin jazz cats perform the memorable Everybody Wants To Be A Cat.

A Disney romp with a simple story and a wide pallet of great characters. The dogs on the motorbike/sidecar with their Laurel and Hardy slapstick and Uncle Waldo were great fun. Beautiful animation, almost sickly sweet romantic storyline, snappy one-liners and comebacks. It isn’t a complete classic, but it reminds one of the days when Mickey didn’t always choose the safe road, and wasn’t afraid to experiment. We're not chickens. We're geese.

I thought it would be the classic story where the fancy cat lady would be snobbish and not want the streetwise guy, but in this regard, the romance is actually quite different and very beautiful, which pleased me. Otherwise, it's a classic Disney story that is simply beautifully straightforward. However, I more than liked the drawing.
