The only thing I remember are those damn cats.

Well, and the dog designs. I always liked those. May need to pick this up. I've only ever seen this movie once as a kid.

I picked it up along with one of the mini Lady plushes at Best Buy today.

This has always been a personal favorite, even if it isn't really anything spectacular by Walt's standards. I blame my unconditional love for dogs for that, but everything seems to click for me. I find all of the canines endearing, the songs memorable, and while the animation isn't as epic as Sleeping Beauty or Bambi's, it's really good for the film's scope and has some great subtle character movements. Really good stuff.
Life is not about the second chances. It's about a little mouse and his voyage to an exciting new land. That, my friend, is what life is.

Sir, do you have any Warrants?
I got their first CD, but you can't have it, motherfucker!
