Description
For my final animation project. Was actually supposed to have this 2 weeks ago, but i fail.Doing a dialogue animation based of a small skit of Abbott and Costello. So I made them two little mice. Sorta inspired from the same exact thing from an oooold WB short, but I could never find it so I was stuck with just the faint memory of it.
I wanna call 'em Babbit and Chewie, but I dunno.

Awww... so cute and so much character. You're great with coming up with lovable characters.

Warner Brothers made a cartoon parallel to Bud Abbott and Lou Costello: A Tale Of Two Kitties from November 1942 featuring Babbitt and Catsello, as two bumbling cats trying to capture a small bird. This cartoon also marks the debut of Tweety Pie, who in this cartoon is called "Orson," and is pink!
WB also has a pair of mouse characters, Hubie and Bertie, but these two use comic mechanisms notably different from Abbott and Costello. Might as well name your characters Babbit and Chewie: few young people today have any idea who Bud Abbott and Lou Costello were, so recycling their schtick through cartoon mice is a viable prospect.
Oh, and extra credit for measuring your characters according to "head height." "Lou" is three heads tall, while "Abbott" is four heads tall.

Yeah, there was something like that on Looney Tunes.
Nice work, anyway.

Babbit and chewie? why? how you got the idea? If you're suposse to paroding Abbot and Costello I think the most logical thing would be to change its names to something that sounds like "mouse" like Mousetello but maybe you chouse your names for your own reason
