DISCLAIMER: This video is intended for adult viewers. The content in this video showcases an obscure piece of animation from decades ago that only adults (especially film/media collectors) would understand. As such, the cartoon presented in this video is a product of its time, whether through its depiction of the ethnic and racial prejudices that were commonplace in American Society during the Golden Age of Hollywood, or the references to violence, death and suicide. These depictions were wrong then and are wrong today which, in combination with the recent changes in KZfaq policy, now must be emphasized that children under 13 should not be watching this video, let alone have an account to watch these videos with. The Child Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) has made it illegal to collect personal data on children younger than age 13, which many websites from Facebook to KZfaq have been doing anyway, and that is why I am typing this to cement the understanding that I only upload content that I conclude animation fans and/or film/media collectors aged 18 or above would find interesting.
With that said, please note that this cartoon is owned by NBCUniversal/Dreamworks. I have no intention of monetization on this video, any monetization made from ads on this video rightfully belongs to the owner. To reiterate, my only intention for videos like these was to display obscure pieces of animation from decades ago. If at any time taking these videos down is necessary, I will gladly comply.

Very well done. The way the characters interacted with the frames of the drawing like at 1:37 was very interesting but it lost nothing when the action moved smoothly from the story board panels to the studio itself, although the green backgrounds of some of the action were a little boring. But that didn't detract from such a clever cartoon. MGM copied the idea and several of the gags for a Tom and Jerry toon a couple of years later in "Designs on Jerry". But the MGM cartoon is very good in its own right. And 3:32 must have had some influence on Itchy and Scratchy. For whatever reason in the world of insane cartoon violence it really stands out.

Looked like they used rotoscoping for the animator's arm and hand at the start of the cartoon.

A Guess at an animating breakdown, i think the scenes where Katnip yanks his hand out of the mousetrap, gets his foot rubbed out by Herman, and the Scene where Katnip prepares to eat him but gets splattered in rubber cement may be animated by an uncredited Gordon Whitter (who was part of Waldman's unit in the 1950's).

Actually those scenes were animated by Larry Silverman

One of the few cartoons where nip is not killed at the end (i know he is called katnip but i wanted to abreviate)

Similar to Designs on Jerry; a T&J cartoon.

Not all of the animation is consistent in quality. The scene where Katnip is twirling the twine like a lasso is not of the same quality of some of the other scenes. Since we are waging guesses here, this scene could have been given to an Assistant as a training exercise. Such things have happened even in Disney features.

@XNeSkUnX This Entry was the sole Herman And Katnip entry animated by Myron Waldman and his unit ( better known for working on the Casper Cartoons). Though i am uncertain who animated the scene from 3: 32, but i guess it may be Waldman himself, but i cannot be certain

Famous Studios never completely left behind their Fleischer roots. "Breaking the Fourth Wall" is a common trait in Fleischer's cartoons and the better Famous cartoons feature that trait. This cartoon is a good example.
