Felix the Cat was the best drawn, most fully- realized cartoon star of. He was also the most self- aware. Unlike Koko the Clown, Pete. Pup, or Gertie the Dinosaur, who could defy their animators only up. Felix had complete control of his own plastic properties.
In Felix. in Hollywood he turns into a cane and then a suitcase. In Pedigreedy. he wakes up in the morning and literally puts himself together, attaching. In Comicalamities the animator forgets. Felix- in- outline seeks out a bootblack to get himself. Felix's self- transformations do not reflect some kind of psychological.
Among Felix's. powers is the one that created him in the first place: he can draw, and. Felix's versatile tail—always. If Felix needs to escape, he draws a circle on the ground.
In Comicalamities, Felix has to rely on his own (human) animator. The human hand is the first thing we see; Felix.
