GADMOUSE - The Apprentice Good Fairy

[@McCraeTheMediaLover]

This was actually not the first Sad Cat Cartoon,but this actually was the first animated cartoon made by Ralph Bakshi for Terrytoons. He would go on to direct a few more cartoons for Terrytoons and later,Paramount before going in the mile by making underground and adult animated films such as Fritz The Cat(1972),The Lord of The Rings(1978),and Cool World(1992). and also did several projects for television such as Mighty Mouse:The New Adventures for CBS,The TV Pilots,Christmas in Tattertown and Hound Town,and his adaptation of Dr.Suess' The Butter Battle Book.

Eventually, Sad Cat became the focus of these cartoons {with Gadmouse phased out}, continued by other directors (including Art Bartsch) through 1968.

This Good Fairy Gadmouse 🧚🏻‍♂️🐁✨ reminds me of Fairy Godmother 🧚🏻‍♂️✨ from Disney’s Cinderella (1950)

[@CharcoalRabbit]

This story is basically a Cinderella clone.

[@thekinglav1925]

This appears to be modelled by Bakshis Mouse Trek 1967

these shorts were a parody of Cinderella

[@FireLightning16]

Sad Cat is like a mixture of Cinderella and Furrball (Tiny Toons).

[@dakentaijutsu2010]

Tiny toons did not exist in the 60s

@@dakentaijutsu2010 Oh I know that, he just reminded me of Furrball a bit.

Sad cat is a boy
