I saw Cat Feud as a fan of Chuck Jones and also of Furry Frame-Up and especially Feed the Kitty. It was rather disappointing compared to those two cartoons and to some of Jones' other work, with a very standard and rather rushed story and a couple of parts that come across as too cutesy for my taste. However it is not bad. The animation is good, maybe Marc Anthony's character design is a little too generic here but the backgrounds do have detail and the colours are appropriately luscious. The music has the energy and characterful orchestration as you'd expect it to, while the dialogue is amusing and the gags while not what you call imaginative at least make their mark, particularly Marc Anthony's frenzied barking and the ending. Both Marc Anthony and Pussyfoot are memorable here, and their rapport is fun, dynamic and touching. The vocals of Mel Blanc are stellar as always. So all in all, not a great cartoon but nowhere near what I call bad. 7/10 Bethany Cox
