Migrating swallows are making their annual spring return to San Juan Capistrano, and a hungry cat awaits them with a radar scope and with his mouth and head disguised as a bird's nest. The clever advance scout for the flock of swallows tricks the cat into ingesting a metallic statue of a swallow, then uses a magnet to pull the cat through pipes and the prongs of a ladder. Hundreds of swallows then dive-bomb the cat with light bulbs and thumb tacks. (imdb)

Okay the magnet shit was funny. Definitely one of the better Robert McKimson shorts I've seen. I also really liked that the animals didn't talk, well at least until the end that is.

The concept is fun. More convoluted gags than usual. McKimson's tendency to design bottom-heavy characters makes for a rather uncatlike cat who lumbers and slides around.
