The Alley Cat is an American animated short film, released in 1941 by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.[1] Directed by Hugh Harman,[1] the film centres on Butch and Toodles Galore, two cats who were subsequently integrated as recurring characters into the Tom and Jerry series of shorts.
Voiced by Harry Lang and Clarence Nash, Butch is a black alley cat who is instantly smitten with Toodles, a female cat he sees on the balcony of her wealthy family's penthouse apartment on Park Avenue. He serenades her, but the butler sends the family's bulldog named Grobo after him — but after outwitting Grobo, Butch makes it into the apartment to dance with his new love.[2]
