I've watched this cartoon ever since I was young so it came as a surprise when it popped up on cable,cut! The bigger cat hypnotizes the little cat into being different celibates, Frank Sinatra,Bing Crosby,Jimmy Durante and for years he was also Rochester,Jack Benny's African-American sidekick,now this funny bit is snipped out. I suppose the powers that be thought this might be offensive but I still miss it.Having seen classic cartoons for years it's surprising that someone decided they have to do some judicious editing to make them more palatable for today's audiences. Racial jokes are cut,as are any gags about suicides. With all the violence and bad language on Morten cartoons,it's your call if this is a good thing or not
