Here Comes the Cat!

About This Movie

Here Comes the Cat! is this quirky 1992 animation that captures the delightful chaos of a mouse settlement facing a feline intruder. The pacing has a whimsical, almost frenetic feel as the mice scurry about, trying to keep their lives in order while dealing with this looming threat. The animation style, while perhaps not groundbreaking, has a certain charm and a handmade quality that gives it personality. The cat, though not portrayed with the usual menace, adds a playful tension rather than outright fear, and that’s what sets it apart. You get a real sense of community among the mice, and that’s pretty engaging in its own right. It’s a fun little piece that makes for an interesting watch on a lazy afternoon.
