Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Blistering performances.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

I first saw this short upon purchasing the DVD I mentioned in the summary and it is very fitting due to its inclusion of Pluto and an abandoned kitten. While it has the cliché of the angel and devil situation, the devil is green rather than red, which makes it somewhat new.The snowy background is lovely and is reminiscent of two other Disney shorts where various characters go ice skating and Donald Duck's nephews cause havoc in the snow, both of which were childhood favourites. The musical score is pleasantly nostalgic and the story is more wholesome in comparison to that in 'Puss Cafe' due to including spoken dialogue. While Pluto appears to be jealous of the kitten at first, I like it when he rescues it from the well and it reminded me of the nursery rhyme 'Ding Dong Bell' in which a naughty boy puts a poor cat down the well but a good boy pulls her out. The animation is on the same level as that in similar Disney shorts such as the ones I have already mentioned. I might have seen a clip from this cartoon before (the part where Mickey pulls a frozen Pluto from the well) during a song on one of the Disney Sing-A-Long Songs videos (possibly 'Friendship' on 'Friend Like Me').Overall this is a lovely if somewhat distressing cartoon that is definitely the best bonus cartoon on my 'Oliver and Company' DVD. 8/10.

A cute Disney Mickey Mouse short. I love cats and dogs and.. Well, fishes make for a lousy pet. Any who, a wonderful cartoon to watch with the family. I really recommend this. It brings a message to not be prejudice.Pluto finds a kitten, he automatically disapprove of the kitten, but Mickey Mouse automatically loves the kitten. Pluto tries to get the kitten framed for something he/she didn't do but it ends up with Pluto getting kicked out. Later, the kitten falls in a well after chasing a ball. Pluto saves the kitten and they now love each other.I recommend this cartoon for everyone. It was a really cute cartoon. Disney produced cartoons are usually good like this.

I've got to admit I'm not too familiar with Pluto as a character, so I couldn't really get into this short. Pluto is Mickey's voiceless pup who, in this short, has a dark and a light side that feud cartoon-y style. This short was made a while ago, so I wouldn't say it was cliché at the time, but the image has become rather familiar.Pluto is bounding along the winter landscape one day when he finds a kitten that was meant to be drowned in a creek. The kitten immediately latches on to Pluto and follows him home, where Mickey takes him in and starts lavishing affection. Pluto, feeling left out, starts scheming how to put the kitten in his place...I think this short is too short. It goes through too many changes of Pluto's character too quickly and doesn't really provide much besides his feuding conscience to work with. It's definitely made for children (nothing wrong with that) but doesn't seem to really provide much reason for Pluto's actions (why does one side of his conscience win over the other, ultimately?).--PolarisDiB

This Oscar winner is a rather sweet, gentle, charming cartoon that, from another studio, probably would not have won the Oscar. While it's a good cartoon, it certainly isn't my choice (of those I've seen, I prefer Rhapsody in Rivets myself). This is the best one that prominently features Pluto and it cetainly does not make you scratch your head and wonder what they were thinking. A good, but by no means great, cartoon. Like most of the shorts (with some lamentable exceptions), this shows periodically on The Ink and Paint Club. Recommended.
