| Trivia | This is the first cartoon featuring the character Speedy Gonzales. However, his depiction here is vastly different from the character he would later become. It wasn't until his second appearance, Speedy Gonzales (1955), that he was re-designed as the character we know him as today. See more » |
| Goofs | When he first rushes out and eats the pieces of cheese that the two cats have put out for him in the circular mousetrap, Speedy can clearly be seen to be wearing a sombrero; however, for the rest of the cartoon, he is hatless. See more » |
