Nit-Witty Kitty

Mammy Two Shoes clocks Tom on the head with her broom, scrambling his brain, making him think that he is a mouse.

A very silly but also very amusing short, Nit-Witty Kitty sees the usually cunning cat believing that he is a huge rodent: he becomes buck-toothed, squeaks, and hops around the house in the search for cheese. He also crams himself into Jerry's mouse hole (ooeerr!), which makes the mouse extremely fed up, especially when Tom breaks his bed. Reading up on the subject, Jerry discovers that another bang on the bonce might set Tom straight and reaches for his baseball bat. Unfortunately, Mammy also has the same idea…

What follows is a series of attempts by Jerry to knock some sense into Tom using such items as a baseball bat, a flat iron, and a bowling ball, but to no avail; the one time he is successful at reverting Tom to his feline ways, Mammy enters and bashes Tom back into his mouse persona. It's all very daft, but also very funny.

As silly as the premise may have been initially, Nit-Witty Kitty more than makes up for it, and is an enormously entertaining cartoon. Seeing my favourite cat and mouse duo again was more than a delight in itself.

I do agree that the basis of the story was somewhat silly, but as I have said there is so much that redeems that. The gags are absolutely hilarious, and they are clever and well-timed, it is not everyday where you see Tom behaving like a mouse now is it. The animation is very colourful and lively, granted it is not one of the best-looking Tom and Jerry cartoons admittedly but it is not the worst-looking either. The music is wonderful as well, a real delight to the ears, and the pacing I had no problem with either as the cartoon went at breakneck speed. Lastly the ending is satisfying and a funny ending to a funny cartoon.

Overall, hugely enjoyable while not being the best of the Tom and Jerry canon. 9/10 Bethany Cox

In a frantic chase between Tom and Jerry around the black maid's feet, she gets a broom, but hits Tom instead of Jerry. Tom then suffers from amnesia and starts to think and act like a mouse.

Jerry learns from a home treatment book that a possible cure is to give Tom a sharp blow on the head. Getting this to happen proves to be a problem...

Very amusing cartoon!

A unique Tom and Jerry cartoon that is more than just Tom and Jerry playing cat and mouse. Tom has amnesia thanks to Mammy Two-Shoes' bad aiming and things he is a mouse. Because of Tom's more annoying behavior, Jerry attempts to cure his amnesia, trying to jolt his memory with things at his head.

Another cartoon full of laughs, slapstick comedy, and unpredictability.

Grade A

This cartoon is very funny, I guess. Although I'm not in USA, I still like it, Tom is suffer for the brain damage, he became like a mouse, I had to admit it was funny when Tom is deranged. Jerry, of course, very distressed, decided to bring Tom's amnesia, But fails. Mammy also thought of the idea,too! Still, It's one of my best TOM AND JERRY cartoon!
