The Cats Bah is a Looney Tunes short directed by Chuck Jones. Released in 1954, it stars Pepe Le Pew.
Title
The title is a play on "casbah," a sort of fortress found in old citadels of North Africa.
Plot
Penelope is an American tourist who by a mishap has a white stripe of paint down her back. She finds herself being chased by the love-sick Pepe Le Pew in the Casbah, who ends wooing her by doing a rendition of As Time Goes By.
Cast
- Mel Blanc as Pepe Le Pew, Penelope Pussycat
- Bea Benaderet as Penelope's Mistress (unc.)
Availability
- VHS - Warner Bros. Cartoons Golden Jubilee 24 Karat Collection (Pepe Le Pew's Skunk Tales)
- Laserdisc - Longitude and Looneytude: Globetrotting Looney Tunes Favorites
- DVD - Looney Tunes Super Stars' Pepé Le Pew: Zee Best of Zee Best
Censorship
The version shown on ABC's The Bugs Bunny and Tweety Show edits out the entire beginning in which the camera assumes the point of view of a reporter interviewing Pepe, due to the presence of alcohol and cigarettes (though it should be noted that ABC once aired the 1951 Pepe cartoon "Scent-imental Romeo" and left the entire scene of Pepe opening a bottle of champagne and serving it to the cat uncensored).
