Oscar nominee
Nominated for the Academy Award — one of Disney's earliest nominations, from the very first year the Academy gave a prize for cartoons. A Christmas short in which an enormous litter of kittens systematically destroys Mickey's house. The chaos is well drawn, and it established the abandoned-orphans-at-Christmas plot the studio would reuse for years.
