Product Description: Movie DVD
Amazon.com: A beloved tabby cat becomes the catalyst for healing and hope between a young girl and her widowed father in Disney's 1964 classic, based on the enchanting fable by Paul Gallico. Set in the Scottish highlands in 1912, the story focuses on Andrew MacDhui (Patrick McGoohan) a veterinarian who, after the death of his wife, has closed his heart to goodness and empathy-- toward his animal patients and his only child. Left essentially an orphan, Mary (Karen Dotrice) finds love from her cat, Thomasina, until a tragedy injures the cat and her father orders it to be killed. A tenderhearted maiden (Susan Hampshire) finds Thomasina, detects a heartbeat, and nurses the feline back to health. Her healing powers eventually move beyond the animal kingdom into the lives of MacDhui and Mary. The stellar cast includes standout performances by Dotrice and Matthew Garber (who plays Mary's loyal chum)--better known as the duo, Jane and Michael Banks, in Mary Poppins. Best watched with kids and Kleenex. (Ages 5 and older) --Lynn Gibson

I have two copies of the book which I have read over and over, and I saw the film as a child. It has lost none of it's charm or magic. I am glad that the film is on disc so that more generations children can enjoy this wonderful magical tale from Paul Gallico.
A lonely child who has lost her Mother; a father too lost in his own grief to see how strong the bond of love between the child and her cat has become; a "witch" to weave the bonds of love together; and of course Thomasina.

What a sweet movie! This movie was one I watched many times as a child. It is still as exciting and moving as I remembered it to be.

This is one of my favorite movies from childhood. It's told by the cat, Thomasina. There are some sad moments but the ending is happy. Nothing scary.
It's definitely a classic in my book!

I saw this movie when it came out in 64. I was eight at the time. I've always adored Disney films and I love cats... especially the orange tabby's which were always my favorite. I had one just like Thomasina at the time and always have throughout my life. I try to collect as many of Disney's movies as I can... except this one.
With that said, the beginning of this movie really upset me as a child and still upsets me to this day when something reminds me of it. My parents and I were caught ... Read More
