I just can't, it's so funny and strange. I love old cartoons

Felix is introduced to the general masses in this cartoon. Here, he's called "Master Tom", which is very very odd, and no explanation is around for why that name was chosen. Anyways, he's trying to woo the neighborhood cat, asking it to meet him around the ash bin and all that. Woot! He then discovers that his lady love has some secrets, a litter of kittens! He doesn't want any of that, and breaks off the relationship. The ending is what kills me, or should I say, kills Felix. That's right, he sees a gas nozzle, puts his mouth on it, and turns it on! WOW!

A simple story but good, I had not realised that animation on film went back that far and the quality is also good for the time.
