What happens
Pizzicato Pussycat is a Warner Bros. Merrie Melodies animated short directed by Friz Freleng, released on January 1, 1955. The first half of the title is a playing technique for string instruments (such as guitars, violins, violas, cellos, and double basses) that involves plucking instead of using a bow (for the lattermost), and also serves as an allusion to the theme of the short.
