Cattanooga Cats was Hanna-Barbera's attempt to duplicate the success it enjoyed with The Banana Splits. Debuting on September 6, 1969 on ABC, this hourlong series had no live-action segments.The headliners were an all-feline rock band, consisting of Country, a guitarist; Scoots, a bassist, and Groove, a drummer. Their female companion, Kitty Jo, looked like a feline version of Daphne Blakenote or maybe Daphne was the human version of Kitty Jo; she also sang on a few of their songs. They had a few cartoon segments, but most of their appearances were in music videos, Ã la The Archie Show.Other segments were: | |

When the Clock Strikes Twelve | |
| The Cattanooga Cats / int_3429147e | comment |
When the Clock Strikes Twelve: "King Size Caddy" opens with Autocat creating a device with a timer that will cause a mallet to smash down on Motormouse, whom Autocat knows will show up at 8 AM sharp, as he sets the device's timer for 8 AM. But Motormouse shows up ten minutes early for a round of golf, and (wouldn't you know it), Autocat is standing under the mallet protesting Motormouse's early arrival, just as the timer hits 8 AM. | |

Punny Name | |

Punny Name: Lambsy's full name (revealed in at least one episode) is "Lambsy Divy", a reference to the 1940s novelty song "Mairzy Doats".note "Mairzy doats and dozy doats and little lambsy divy..." which in plain English reads "mares eat oats and does eat oats and little lambs eat ivy." Mildew actually lampshades this in an "It's The Wolf!" episode. | |

Comic-Book Adaptation: The Cattanooga Cats appeared in three issues of Gold Key Comics' Hanna-Barbera Fun-In anthology series (issues 2, 3 and 4). Motormouse and Autocat appeared in issues 5, 7 and 9, and It's the Wolf! appeared in issues 2, 3, 4, 6 and 7. Around the World in 79 Days did not appear at all in the comics. There was also a 1970 coloring book that featured an original Cattanooga Cats story, bringing back Geronihoho and Ellie May the elephant from the cartoon. It even featured Crumden, Bumbler, & Smirky as the villains. | |

Recycled Animation | |
| The Cattanooga Cats / int_b0b8970e | comment |
Recycled Animation: The music videos relied more and more on this as the series went on. The first few had visuals that very closely matched the lyrics, but later music videos were simply cobbled together with shots from the previous ones...the further in the run a video was, the less chance the visuals would have anything to do with the actual lyrics. The last few were extreme cases, flat out taking one of the old videos and slapping the new song over it with minimal changes to the visuals, leading to action that didn't even match the tempo of the songs. | |

Character Catchphrase | |
| The Cattanooga Cats / int_d308cbb0 | comment |
Character Catchphrase: Motormouse has three—"Boy, howdy!", "Chickaree!" and "That's plum dumb!" Lambsy has "IT'S THE WOL-UF! IT'S THE WOL-UF! That's who it is... the wol-uf!" Mildew Wolf has, "Oh, for Pete's sake!" Scoots has "Wavy Chitlin Gravey!" Bristlehound has "I'm comin', Lambsy. I'm comin'!" Lambsy's phrase can also be the end of a longer soliloquoy, usually the first time Mildew tries to grab him in each episode. Mildew turns up in disguise, but Lambsy is suspicious. "That's not <whatever the wolf is pretending to be>. Now who could that be? Is it <insert a couple of rhyming or alliterative possibilities, e.g., A blue gnu from Kalamazoo>? Uh-uh. I know who that is..." <Cue the above cry for help as the lamb runs for his life.> Mildew also has what is not so much a catchphrase as a series of disparaging exit lines as he repeatedly soars into the distance after being caught by Bristlehound and slung into the air by the dog's shepherd's crook. "Muscle-bound mutt!" is a typical example, though he never repeats himself. | |

Break Out the Museum Piece | |

Break Out the Museum Piece: In 79 Days the heroes have to break Fogg's record without using modern transportation, since after all they could have it wrapped up inside of two weeks if he could just hop a plane. Instead he has to do it in the original Fogg's hot air balloon. | |

Breakout Character | |
| The Cattanooga Cats / int_da0eeab5 | comment |
Breakout Character: Mildew Wolf. He is the most popular character of the series. He spun off into a package series with Motormouse and Autocat when the show was cancelled. He was also a cohost with Snagglepuss in Laff-A-Lympics. Much of Mildew's popularity can be attributed to the masterful performance of Paul Lynde. | |

Chariot Race | |
| The Cattanooga Cats / int_dda13ce4 | comment |
Chariot Race: Motormouse and Autocat participate in a chariot race as part of scene in a movie being filmed with them in "Lights! Action! Catastrophe!" Naturally, Autocat finishes on the short end. | |

Nice Mice | |
| The Cattanooga Cats / int_df7154e0 | comment |
Nice Mice: Motormouse was usually Autocat's antagonist as it was Autocat's job to get rid of him from the Spin Your Wheels Garage. Once in awhile, though, Motormouse would help out Autocat and on occasion give him a lift home from work. | |

Verbal Backspace | |
| The Cattanooga Cats / int_f5b7b990 | comment |
Verbal Backspace: Bumbler's attempts to address Crumden by a chummy diminutive usually end up sounding like insults — e.g. Crum, Crummy, Crummer — which he hastily corrects. | |

Running Gag: Includes both individual segments (Scoots' magic crayon, Teeny Tim's new trick, Scoots Clunk the Caveman sketches, etc.), and regularly occurring parts of other segments (e.g., Mildew Wolf's Paper Thin Disguises). | |
