The Aristocats is an animated feature produced and released by Walt Disney Productions in 1970 and stars Eva Gabor and Phil Harris, with Roddy Maude-Roxby as Edgar the butler, the villain of the story. The twentieth animated feature in the Walt Disney Animated Classics series, the film is based on a story by Tom McGowan and Tom Rowe, and revolves around a family of aristocratic cats, and how an alley cat acquaintance helps them after a butler has kidnapped them to gain his mistress' fortune which was meant to go to them. It was originally released to theaters by Buena Vista Distribution on December 11, 1970. The title is a pun on the word aristocrats.

The film is noted for being the last film to be approved by Walt Disney himself, as he died in late 1966, before the film was released. It garnered positive reviews and was a box office success. It is also the last Disney film to end with "A Walt Disney Production" as it would be changed to "Walt Disney Productions" to appear under "The End" logo. Disney Studios began production of a sequel, The Aristocats II, in December 2005, set to release in 2007, but production was cancelled in early 2006.

We use to have a cat named Omalley which came from this movie, when it came on vhs in 97 a bunch of people were going hey isnt that your cats name?
any way likable animated film with likable characters. Isn't the best Disney film as it was the first without Walt, but not the worse either.

This has some cute moments and characters but the story is quite lazy and Disney clearly wasn’t trying to appeal to anyone other than kids with this one. That last song is catchy though!
