Comments

From Ryan : This short appears to feature Delores the elephant who was in the "Big Wash." I enjoy this short. I find the part where the tiger loses his stripes to be quite humorous.

From Ryan : [sfx] TING

Tiger: Meeeoooowwww!

The Tiger getting ready to fight has always cracked my wife up. I was able to surprise her last Christmas w/ the Goofy DVD collection for just that one scene.

But since this was his only appearance, no merchandise (or even many images) exist for such a fantastically feline supporting player.

From Baruch Weiss : I love this cartoon, I noticed that in the scene where goofy is trapped in the tigers den Paul J. Smith used the same music from "Cured Duck" allso in the chase sequence the same music was heared later in the 1953 cartoon "Rugged Bear" briefly when humphrey changes the station, allso Bill Peet is credited with the story, but my version on "The Complete Goofy" has it mispelled Bill Peed.

From Dino Cencia : As I read Baruch Weiss's comment, I agree with him. The part when the tiger jumped on Goofy and licked his foot, and Goofy tied the tiger's tail to a tree; I heard that same music from "Cured Duck" when Donald Duck was smoking a cigar going to Daisy Duck's house. As I heard that music again in this cartoon, I thought, isn't that the same music from "Cured Duck?" I was right and I loved that music. Also, the chase music part was from another Donald and Goofy cartoon "Frank Duck Brings em' Back Alive". I heard that music too and I love Disney cartoon music. The funny part in Tiger Trouble was when the tiger was chasing Goofy around the jungle. I like Goofy cartoons and I'm going to Disneyland tomorrow! Yay! I can't wait to see all the characters! Great Goofy cartoon! 120 out of 120.

I have seen "Tiger Trouble" and would like to
