(Blu-ray, Walt Disney)
A pampered cat and her kittens live with their owner, a former opera diva, in turn-of-the-century Paris. As the aging woman dictates her will to her lawyer, the terms are overhead by her butler, who is outraged at being passed over by her cats. He kidnaps the cats and dumps them in the country. They spend the rest of the movie trying to get back home. They get help from a friendly tom cat, who introduces them to his carefree lifestyle and jazz loving friends back in Paris. The butler won't give up so easily, though, and they have to confront him one more time. Colorful, entertaining Disney, with memorable characters and some psychedelic jazz scenes that made it a hit on college campuses in the early 70s as a "head movie", much to the chagrin of the family oriented Walt Disney.
