Chuck Jones's 'Kiss Me Cat' is the first of his follow-ups to the masterpiece 'Feed the Kitty', starring bulldog Marc Anthony and his beloved kitten Pussyfoot. My first impression was that 'Feed the Kitty' was such a perfect film that it should have remained a one-shot and that I would spend the entirety of 'Kiss Me Cat' just wishing I was watching its predecessor. However, if you clear your mind of all presuppositions, 'Kiss Me Cat' is actually a very fine cartoon indeed and a worthy sequel to 'Feed the Kitty'. The plot has Marc Anthony attempting to fool his owners into believing that Pussyfoot is a champion mouser when in fact the kitten would rather act as the mouse's beast of burden, assisting the rodent in his acquisition of food from the fridge. With Pussyfoot's position as house cat at stake, this plot allows Marc Anthony to once again perform a pantomime tour-de-force of facial expressions and wild gestures. Also wonderful is the mouse character, who is completely mute but so hilariously designed and animated that he need not say a thing. Although it doesn't quite live up to 'Feed the Kitty' (and, to be fair, few things could), 'Kiss Me Cat' is another triumph for two of Jones's sweetest characters.
