Not Quite a Cartoon Decapitation

The MGM short “The Counterfeit Cat” should probably be named “The Counterfeit Dog.” After all, the cat is pretending to be a dog.

Nevertheless, the cat rips the top off a dog’s head to use as a disguise. Here’s some nice squash and stretch by the dog when it realises something has happened.



I’ve always wondered how the dog hears without any ears.

Mike Lah, Grant Simmons and Walt Clinton are the animators in this fine Tex Avery cartoon.

    "I’ve always wondered how the dog hears without any ears."

    That's a riddle to noodle at! Of course there's a lot more things to say there but then we're just getting too carried with the standard cartoon logic at play.
