Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe poster parodies at the end are all of movies from Warner Brothers, New Line Cinema, or Turner Entertainment. The filmmakers originally conceived of parodies of other famous films, such as The Sound of Music (1965) and Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977), but abandoned them because they would've had to pay licensing fees.
- GoofsAs Danny arrives in Hollywood at the beginning of the film, the Hollywood sign can be seen. The film is set in 1939 so the sign should still read Hollywoodland as it did until 1949.
- Crazy creditsThere is a statement in the closing credits: "No animals were harmed during the making of this film. Although, some were erased and had to be redrawn."

Featured review
The most hyperactive movie I've ever seen!
Wow! What a fun movie! I love "Cats Don't Dance" with a passion. I found it so refreshing to see animation like this after such a long string of Disney films so bent on realism. Here, the animation is cartooney, way-overblown, and UNBELIEVABLY manic! The story is wonderfully carried out with anthropomorphic animal characters (something you don't often see in features), and the uplifting message is catching. It's very entertaining and very funny! I recommend you view "Cats Don't Dance" while feeling very energetic. Otherwise, it'll just make you tired. Probably not everybody's cup of tea, but it sure is MINE! An enthusiastic 10/10 stars!
P.S. Did you know that Scott Bakula can sing? He sure can!
