Tom and Jerry Cartoons under this category
Jerry receives a telegram from his Uncle Pecos who plans to stay with Jerry while he is recording a television appearance. The mustachioed mouse gives Jerry an impromptu performance on guitar, singing a song called ‘Crambone’ (a butchered version of “Frog Went A-Courtin’” or “Froggy Would A-Wooing Go”) but midway through the session, his guitar string breaks. The old mouse finds that Tom’s whiskers make the perfect replacement for his broken guitar strings and pulls one off the cat. Playing his guitar again, another string breaks, and Pecos seeks another string - from Tom once more.
Pecos pulls out Tom’s last remaining whisker in Pecos Pest.By the end of the cartoon, Tom only has one of his whiskers remaining and is absolutely determined to protect it. Fortunately, Pecos has to leave for his television performance, which Tom and Jerry watch in their living room. Unfortunately, while playing on air, Pecos’ guitar string snaps once again, and a laughing Tom ends up aghast when Pecos reaches out of the television set, pulls out Tom’s only remaining whisker (much to Tom’s dismay), and finishes his live performance.
