Comments

A Silly Symphony.

This short was a sequel to the 1935 short "Three Orphan Kittens."

From Jerry Edwards : Excellent animation with some interesting scenes - the kittens' main mischief is outdoors in this sequel, compared to indoors in the 1935 Three Orphan Kittens. Also it's winter in the first cartoon, spring in this sequel.

From Ryan : I'm sorry, but I was mistaking when the St. Bernard in "Alpine Climbers" was similar to the one in "Three Orphan Kittens." There is no St. Bernard (or any dogs for that matter) in that short. It was actually this very short that he appears in. It's pretty much a similar plot to its original "Three Orphan Kittens" with the kittens hiding from the black maid.

From Baruch Weiss : A cute cartoon involving three kittens getting into all sorts of trouble with an appearance of the politically incorrect maid. I loved the scene where the bird goes into the dogs mouth and tweets "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf"!

I have seen "More Kittens" and would like to
