Tom's being especially lazy, which makes it even easier for Mammy to toss him out when her new mouse-catching robot cat, Mechano, arrives. Mechano is frighteningly efficient, foiling several attempts by Jerry. Jerry turns this efficiency against him by unleashing several mechanical mice; the zealous robot makes a shambles of the house, and finally itself, in the process of chasing them down. Tom is welcomed back, but at the last moment, a key part of the robot had gone down Tom's throat; Jerry activates it, and sends Tom chasing after one of the wind-up mice.

Best movie ever!

Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

This is the final Tom & Jerry cartoon with Mammy Two-Shoes, which turns out to be a tad funny with the maid's new mechanical cat blasting away Jerry at every turn. But, when it attempts to catch the mechanical mice Jerry lets loose in the large house, plenty of slapstick disaster happens - from breaking kitchenware to cutting a piano in half. Not too hilarious as earlier cartoons with Mammy Two-Shoes in it overall. More average.Grade C+

The 1950s saw the dawn of the space age, mankind spellbound by the advanced technological marvels of the foreseeable future. This T&J cartoon sees Mammy Two Shoes (in her final appearance) embracing the wonders of modern science by purchasing Mechano, an amazing mouse-catching robot cat, making poor Tom redundant in the process. At first the machine does its job brilliantly, but Jerry, keen to get back to the comfort of his mouse-hole, throws a few spanners (or wind-up mice) in the works.Push-Button Kitty has a great central idea, and Mechano is a cool creation, armed with saws, axes, dynamite and a gun, the metal moggy causing more mayhem than Tom ever did; but despite a fast pace and lots of chaos, this one simply doesn't deliver enough solid laughs to qualify it as one of the more entertaining of Tom and Jerry shorts.

Push-Button Kitty, what can I say? Really good, the beginning is rather slow in comparison to the rest of the cartoon, but once Mechano is introduced, what we get is a cartoon that is original, entertaining and interesting. Plus it was different, it was nice to have a change once in a while. The animation is lush, the music is playful, the story is original and the sight gags are clever. And we also have fast pacing in general that adds to to the cartoon's enjoyment. Tom and Jerry are still likable, though there's more of Jerry than there is of Tom, not that that's a bad thing, and Mammy Two-Shoes is a nice supporting character who doesn't distract from the story too much. Overall, very nice and pleasant, not to mention entertaining. 9/10 Bethany Cox

Mammy Two Shoes, disgusted at the laziness of Tom, has previously placed an order for Mechano, a robot cat, which arrives one morning. After she demonstrates Mechano's effectiveness at ejecting Jerry from the household, a now-redundant Tom packs his things and leaves the house.Jerry, meanwhile, tries many ways to outfox the mechanical moggie...This is a fast-paced, very entertaining cartoon. It was also the last one to feature the dark-skinned, drawling Mammy Two Shoes. The race laws had somewhat changed the previous year, and the character was now no longer appropriate, so she was finally ejected from the series after just over a decade.
