Non-notable Mickey Mouse short. A Google search for "When the cat's away""Mickey mouse"[1] returns only 1,030 results, the vast majority of which are from comprehensive websites like imdb or The Big Cartoon Database, blogs, or things unrelated to this film, and as such it appears to fail WP:NF.

  • Those all seem to just be very brief mentions or entries in comprehensive animation encyclopedias.--Unscented (talk) 21:12, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep: Might get expanded one day, what we have in the mean while I deem not to be harmful to the encyclopaedia. Ryan4314 (talk) 05:39, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep At least one of the google book sources mention audience response. Together with the fact that Disney is well covered in paper sources, it's very likely to be expanded. - Mgm|^(talk) 10:32, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep: This is notable as an rare example of a Mickey Mouse cartoon where the characters are depicted as mice, and not regular-person sized. It is also due to be expanded, and the summary and info needs to be saved in some form. SWatsi (talk) 18:18, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. All Disney productions are notable, and early productions such as this in particular are covered in multiple sources as noted above. 23skidoo (talk) 18:57, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
