The Bowling Alley-Cat

The Bowling Alley-Cat (1942) is an eight-minute Tom and Jerry short you can watch online on iFILM, directed by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera for MGM.

Jerry takes up residence among the bowling pins, turning the lane into his personal fortress. Tom rolls ball after ball. Nothing connects. The alley works as a near-perfect setup for their usual dynamic — a clean location, one trapped mouse, and one very frustrated cat. Eight minutes of precise comic timing with no wasted frames.
