Minnie the Moocher Cat

“Minnie the Moocher” (1932) is another great Fleischer cartoon, mixing ghosts, skeletons, weird creatures and Cab Calloway’s music.

One little sequence has Calloway’s voice coming out of a spectre cat.



Suddenly spectre kittens pop up behind her and start feeding off her. The mother cat shrinks.



The mother cat hands them a milk bottle with four nipples. They continue to grow but she dies.
