Today's feature is my pick for classic Disney's best live action animal-themed comedy. Follow the adventures of DC, the Siamese cat who works for the FBI. Trivia: it's the only Disney film to co-star studio veterans Hayley Mills and conservative Christian actor Dean Jones.

The cat in this movie is beautiful. I prefer the stocky, muscular Siamese over the thin, gangly variety.

Love it! I have an original, framed movie poster. I even named my Siamese "Canoe" after Hayley Mill's boyfriend. DC is certainly the star of this movie.

Cool. I love the scene where DC leads Dean Jones to the local drive-in theater(kids today would ask “Drive-in theater? What’s one of those?”)
To: ReformationFan
Aaah, absolutely love that movie. Clean fun. I never saw the remake, and I don’t intend to.

Agreed. They got it right the first time. It didn’t need remaking.
To: ReformationFan
I love this movie. Need to get a copy of it. My library only has the stupid remake.

I hear you. My cousin had a 15 pound sealpoint siamese that was the only cat I ever saw that had shoulders.

I had quite the crush on Hayley Mills back in those days even though she was a few years older.
