Trivia:
As this short starts, Jerry is reading "Good Mousekeeping" magazine - a spoof of Good Housekeeping magazine and a similar title of another Tom and Jerry cartoon, Mouse Cleaning (1948). The note on Nibbles' shirt reads: This is Nibbles, the little Orphan, you agreed to have as your guest for dinner on Thanksgiving Day Thank you, "Bide A Wee Mouse Home".

The Academy are doing right to give an OSCAR to this picture.
Jerry´s nephew is coming to Thanksgiving Day and he is very, very, very, very hungry !
The "little orphan" is fearless and eat all things on Thanksgiving-Day-Table. One of the best scenes is when Jerry and the orphan are Pilgrim Fathers and Tom is an Indian. There weapons are forks and spoons and all other things at home Tom & Jerry need to make a strong life to another.
There´s a remake of the film on the Sixties done by Chuck Jones with the same story and choreography, but in his own style. Look the Original !!!
