Disclose Notes: The feature and character, called "The Downhearted Duckling" for this story would become better known as "Little Quacker". Despite the feature title, Jerry refers to the duck as "Li'l Quacker" in the story.

Tuffy does not appear in this story, making it reminiscent of a classic-era Tom and Jerry theatrical animated short.
