 The Cat's Me-Ouch!
comment
The Cat's Me-Ouch! is a 1965 cartoon in the Tom and Jerry series, directed by the late Chuck Jones.While emerging from his mouse hole, Jerry is almost sliced in half by Tom wielding a cleaver. He manages to escape from the cat in a magazine about dogs and falls down the stairs, and upon seeing an ad in the magazine for a bulldog, he decides to order the canine in order to scare off Tom. However, when the delivery finally arrives, the bulldog turns out to be a diminutive puppy, much to Tom's amazement and Jerry's confusion. But when Tom picks up the puppy and makes fun of him, the little canine then proves to be surprisingly strong by shearing off some of the cat's fur with his razor-sharp teeth. From that point on, the tiny bulldog then becomes Jerry's pet and guardian.

Hollywood Healing: Semi-averted. The fur on Tom's tail grows back after it has been shredded off by the bulldog puppy, but not the fur on his arms.

comment
Axe Before Entering: When Tom realizes that he is outside the house and the bulldog is inside, he brandishes an axe and chops his way through the door just as the dog is freeing Jerry from his jar prison. Acting instinctively, the bulldog then shreds the handle of the axe with his teeth, leaving behind the blade to fall on Tom's foot.

Bait-and-Switch: Jerry's delivery has arrived, and as Tom grows increasingly worried and scared, Jerry opens the massive crate and whistles for the dog to come out. The canine then emerges from the crate... revealing himself to be a really pint-sized pup, which relieves Tom's fear. Temporarily.

Inconvenient Itch: At one point, the tiny bulldog senses a flea on his rear end and tries to scratch at it like how a dog normally would. When the flea doesn't come off, the pup then resorts to using his buzzsaw teeth, causing the flea to fall off while screaming and die.

Instant Bandages: Tom has bandages wrapped around his head, left foot and tail as he walks to the hospital. The doctor then unwraps the bandages on his foot to reveal the bulldog clutching onto it with his jaws, and Tom does the same with his tail to reveal Jerry biting on it.

Attack the Tail: The bulldog puppy shreds some of the fur on Tom's tail off, revealing that it is shaped like a string of sausages. Then, at the end of the cartoon, Tom unwraps the bandage covering the tip of his tail to reveal Jerry biting onto it.

comment
The Door Slams You: When the tiny bulldog prepares to charge into the house to confront Tom, who has imprisoned Jerry in a jar, the cat shuts the door at the last moment, only for the canine to effortlessly slam it down onto him. Tom then flips the door so that the dog is beneath the door, yelling "Aha!", and the dog does the same so that Tom is underneath the door. The process then repeats and shifts to the walls until the door is back where it originally was, with Tom outside and the bulldog inside.
