Production notes

The first cartoon short from Columbia, as well as Columbia's first Krazy Kat cartoon. The first sound Krazy Kat cartoon.

For decades, this cartoon was considered lost, but several years ago Sony's restoration team found the negative and restored the visual element. However, the soundtrack was still lost. Ron Hutchinson of the Vitaphone Project located a rare Vitaphone disc for Ratskin (it was found in Australia).
