Tomcat - Animated short film (2005)

[@TheMechafreezer]

Watching these short animations proves to me that these people make better productions than most Hollywood creators today.

[@patriotgrimmkristogrimm5510]

Omzikat too true!!!

[@lexibyday9504]

you make a good story by wanting to make a good story. You make a bad story by wanting to make money from a story. Until hollywood can get that in their heads they're going to keep sliding down in quality. Sadly it dowsn't matter because their target audience keeps sliding down in intelligence and already will just buy anyhting with three or more famous names on it.

. Mm mm

Actually

[@Meow_meowwww]

u mean story wise or drawing/animation too

[@bestawardedanimation1503]

it's 25 years , that i use to make animation lonely , but the truth is , a good animation is the result of team work

[@DrachenGothik666]

This little short really needs more views and likes. Seriously. This is such a cute, sweet little story. And how he ends up gaining the friendship of two strangers who help him out, too. What lengths we'll go to for love. :-)

[@NoParkingBerry]

OH MY GOD!! I FINALLY FOUND THIS SHORT AFTER 15 YEARS! I remember watching it on the animation block of a now-defunct Canadian short film channel called Movieola back around 2007. I especially remembered the part with the tomcat choking on the fish skeleton.

[@gorillainthemist934]

Thumbs up "or paws" for a clever little story I thought it was brilliant, loved the mole with sunglasses 🕶️😂. Must have taken a lot of work but please give us more.👍🤗

This is a sweet story. We should all be so lucky to have a friend like the rabbit.

[@Queen.AnneBoleyn]

I love this art style. It's so beautiful and creative. What an epic little film! 🐾🐈

[@paulinewqi]

BRILLIANT piece of work!! ..WOW!!. Nine lives.. Tqtq for sharing...💖💝💐

[@et4344]

Fantastic, both my daughter Chloe and I love the animations. A breath of fresh air. We were sad his rabbit friend didn't make it. Please continue to make such a great CGI story. Thanks

[@sarahprice659]

What need is there for words? I started going to see the Oscar nominated animated short films a few years ago, and I am never less than very impressed. It’s wonderful to see the hard work, dedication, skill, and creativity of artists culminate into one of these shorts. They are infinitely better than most well-funded full-length movies. 🥰

[@daisydriver5877]

So very, very true!

[@annamossity8879]

What a lovely little film! The characters are fleshed out very well. And the art, which this is, loved it!

[@istp1967]

The rabbit was the only friend he had and he didn't make it 😢

[@dilasgrau6433]

His friend, the rabbit has only one life.

[@velvety2006]

I think he was over it a bit quick, i mean he did try to help hem get his girl

[@gwang3103]

Look at the bright side, at least he went to Heaven. :P

In another day... when people were much happier than we have now. This would have been a gigantic hit.

[@victordkv8525]

Sweet. Timeless. A joy. Excellently done.

This is a wonderful animation & little story. I really enjoyed it. Thanks. 🖐😊🧡

[@jugbywellington1134]

This is amazing! Lovely animations and very clever plot twist. No wonder nobody bothers much with the BBC any more: it never shows anything as good as this now.

[@patriotgrimmkristogrimm5510]

Oh this was adorable!!!

[@R2D2999]

O.K. Brilliant, Brilliant film first and foremost. I can just imagine how much work was involved! But...When that mole had sunglasses on?!?🤣🤣🤣 Mad respect! Keep it up!

[@DrachenGothik666]

The shades on the blind character is an old, old gag (also, a lot of "blind" folks in real life can actually see some light and dark, and do wear shades imply to prevent pain and further eye-damage in bright sunlight). Put 'em on a mole, an underground critter with teeny, tiny eyes, who's virtually blind in daylight... Double joke. :-D

[@R2D2999]

What a beautifully animated old tale originally told I absolutely loved it thank you so much

[@robbyelz4404]

Vielen Dank für dieses Video. Ich habe mit den kleinen Kerl mitgefiebert.💕

[@thomash.5473]

Aww poor bunny...

[@28YorkshireRose12]

This reminds me of 1970s BBC2, and a series of animated shorts that were broadcast under the series title "Intermezzo". Like this video, they were cleverly made, usually had a plot twist, often with a sad ending, but not always, and every one of them was thought provoking to say the least. Well done with this one, and long may you be making films like this.

[@dontaylor7315]

I'm a fan of the old Warner Brothers animations and Max Fleischer cartoons but this one chalks up points for contemporary animators.

[@dontaylor7315]

@David Olinger I loved the Hanna-Barbera cartoons when I was a kid because the scripts were so clever but the animation was kinda stiff; fewer frames per minute and the movement wasn't as fluid. For me the stuff created by the Termite Terrace gang at WB was the cream of cartooning and I still feel I was lucky those old shorts were still being shown. Of course the endless frame-by-frame drawing, shooting and cell-washing over and over was incredibly tedious drudgework and I guess CGI is relatively effortless in that respect, but every advancement in the art rests on the back of an earlier more primitive achievement.

[@ChemistTea]

that was pretty good, worth the watch

[@ExpiredTape]

The ending warmed my heart

[@helendawood8868]

Wonderful work . Well done, keep up the good work .

So cat dont always land on their feet

[@missscapegrace6675]

Ich find unlogisch, dass die Katzen mit dem Schwanz wedeln, wenn sie sich freuen. Das sind doch keine Hunde! Wenn Katzen mit dem Schwanz wedeln sind sie eher angriffslustig. Die Idee mit der Seilbahn finde ich total super. Ich hab nur leider nicht verstanden, warum er sich für die Katze so aufopfert. Der Hase ist allerdings super Klasse gemacht.

[@imjustpunky3881]
