Tweekums Fed up of the mess being cause by Jerry the mouse, Mammy Two Shoes give her two cats, Tom and Butch, an ultimatum... the one of them who catches the mouse can stay; the other is out! They quickly start searching the house and are joined by Jerry; when they actually realise he is right there they start fighting over him. What follows isn't totally unexpected but is still funny; they have a duel, a boxing match and even try to disguise them selves as Mammy Two Shoes... with the inevitable results!There is plenty to laugh at here although the generic setting makes it a fairly forgettable entry in the series. Highlights were the duel where only one of them had a real gun and later when they took turns dressing up as Mammy Two Shoes to trick each other then attacked the real Mammy Two Shoes thinking it was the other cat! The animation was as sharp as one would expect from the era and Lillian Randolph is great as the voice of Mammy Two Shoes.

TheLittleSongbird The story is on the predictable side of things, but in my opinion everything else works. This is a very good example of a cartoon where nobody(not counting Mammy Two Shoes), and this was a nice sort of change I feel. The animation is colourful and solid-looking, the music is rousing, Mammy Two Shoes's dialogue is good and didn't interfere too much and the sight gags are constantly amusing. I also liked how quick the cartoon went as well. Tom and Butch are funny, and Jerry is a great foil for them.Overall, A Mouse in the House is a little predictable but still funny with a refreshing ending. 9/10 Bethany Cox

BA_Harrison Tom and 'ex-arch-enemy-turned-best-friend' Butch, are read the riot act by Mammy Two Shoes, who is fed up with the mouse that is raiding her fridge. She tells the two useless felines that whoever fails to catch the rodent will be turfed out of the house. Naturally, this pits the two moggies against each other in a battle to capture poor Jerry.Not terrible, but way too predictable to be anything special, A Mouse in the House features the usual plethora of slapstick and violence, without adding anything particularly new to the formula.A fun ending, which sees both cats AND Jerry booted out the front door, ends the action on a satisfying note, but it's not enough to make this cartoon worth recommending.

looneythad Tom and Butch Cat fight over the capture of Jerry Mouse because the one who doesn't catch Jerry gets kicked out. The two cats dress in their master's clothing to disguise themselves and lets the other have it! Confused, Tom and Butch whack their master's rear and all three of them get kicked out.
