Kitty Foiled

Tom chases after Jerry and gets tripped up by a yellow canary. Jerry and the canary keep foiling Tom's plans until Tom gets Jerry tied to a model railroad track. The canary drops a bowling ball-shaped bomb in front of him, causing Tom and the train that he's riding to head to the basement. The final scene shows Jerry and the canary swinging back and forth inside the canary cage and humming "My Blue Heaven."

Tom, Jerry, Canary

The scene in which Jerry and the canary pretend to be Indians has been edited from T.V. prints.

Excerpts from this cartoon were reused in "Life with Tom" (1953).

Tom's coin-flipping scene is a parody of George Raft's performance (as coin-flipping gangster Guino Rinaldo) in the 1932 film "Scarface."

Score: "Here's to the Girls" (Roger Edens), "My Blue Heaven" (Walter Donaldson)
