Toons You Might've Missed: Rail Rodents (1954)

 January usually means cabin fever for some folks. We know birds fly south for the winter, so how do mice and cats travel to the South?

In Herman & Katnip's case, by train. Jack Mercer wrote "Rail Rodents", a mostly silent short in the vein of Tom & Jerry. Sid Raymond speaks Katnip's only line of dialogue. The screaming? Apparently, Jackson Beck took over.


Rating: A-.
