A baby kangaroo hops out of his zoo cage and roams into the surrounding city. The kangaroo stops at Sylvester Cat's home while Sylvester is hunting for mice with a fishing rod. When Sylvester "reels in" the kangaroo, he thinks he has caught a giant mouse and makes a humiliatingly unsuccessful attempt to catch him. Written by Kevin McCorry <mmccorry@nb.sympatico.ca>

While I am not the biggest fan of the Sylvester vs.Hoppity cartoons, there have been some that I have liked very much and Hop, Look and Listen is one of them. Sure some of the cartoon is very slapsticky and predictable particularly in the middle and Sylvester's character animation lacks consistency here. However, the colours and backgrounds are very nice and colourful, and I loved the quirkiness and energy of the music. Sylvester has some very witty and funny quips, and Hoppity the baby kangaroo is very cute and has the more entertaining visual moments towards the beginning. Mel Blanc does a fine job with the voice characterisations and he always did. In conclusion, a very nice and entertaining cartoon. 8/10 Bethany Cox
