There is a lovely touch towards the end, when we see film posters with our animal friends portrayed in the starring roles.
There are great orchestrations and arrangements of the Randy Newman songs but I couldnt help but feel that it would be good to hear a repeated theme or song, so that we could be humming it as we leave the cinema.

Cats Don't Dance" treads this territory with a whimsy that will be over the heads of young kids and too unimaginative for adults.
Newman's songs are theatrical and lively, and Natalie Cole , the singing voice of Sawyer, does a sensational ballad.

Chicago Sun-Times
Cats Don't Dance'' is not compelling and it's not a breakthrough, but on its own terms, it works well.
The movie lacks the strong plotting and vividly defined characters typical of Disney movies, and it doesn't start with the death of one or more parents, which seems more or less obligatory in the genre.
