Smarty Cat
A lighthearted cartoon comedy built around slapstick humor and the classic cat-versus-dog dynamic, framed as a home-movie screening that turns chaotic when the unwitting subject arrives.
Nobody's home, so Tom invites his alley cat friends in to look at home movies (clips from earlier cartoons where Tom gets the drop on Spike). While they're showing them, Spike sneaks in.
