Did you know
⢠Jake the cat was played by two different Abyssinian cats: Rumple and his sister, Amber.
⢠Ronnie Schell, who provided the voice of the title feline, was also given the small part of an army sergeant. In post-production, it was decided that his voice was too easily recognizable, so the on-screen role was re-dubbed by another, unidentified and anonymous actor.
⢠In reality, Sandy Duncan is allergic to cats.

Amiable Disney film.
Hilarious, for me anyway
