Catscratch | Saturday Morning Acapella | Triforcefilms

In their latest addition to their "Saturday Morning A Capella" playlist, YouTube channel Triforcefilms has unveiled an a capella version of the Catscratch opening theme tune, which you can watch in the totally purrrfect music video below!

In the video clip, Mr. Dooves records himself singing and humming different parts with Rasputin the Kitty (which you can see individually), while the theme song's familiar opening titles play in the centre of the screen. It's another of those videos you can watch multiple times, yet continue to notice new things!:



Catscratch was created by Doug TenNapel, based on his graphic novel Gear. It premiered July 9th, 2005 and ran for 20 episodes over one season. The main characters in the show, Mr. Blik, Gordon and Waffle, were voiced by Wayne Knight (Tak & the Power of Juju, Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness, The Penguins of Madagascar, Seinfeld, 3rd Rock from the Sun, Hot in Cleveland), Rob Paulsen (The Fairly OddParents, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, T.U.F.F. Puppy, Planet Sheen, Robot and Monster, Big Time Rush, Random! Cartoons, Back at the Barnyard, The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius, ChalkZone), and Kevin McDonald (Back at the Barnyard, Invader ZIM, The Angry Beavers, The Penguins of Madagascar, Kung Fu Panda: Legends, That '70s Show, Ellen), respectively.

Here's the original Catscratch theme song, composed by Terry Scott Taylor, in all its glory! Sing-along with the lyrics below:



Catscratch theme song lyrics:

La la la la la la la, Catscratch.

Gordon and Waffle and Mr. Blik,
When the old lady died, she left them rich.
A mansion, cars, life's a kick.
Catscratch!

Catscratch (Catscratch)

Catscratch (Catscratch)

La la la la la la la, Catscratch.

Yes, when it comes to cash they've quite a bit,
anything they want, they take their pick.

But the trouble their in just never quits,
when it comes to brains their a little bit thick!

Catscratch (Catscratch)

Catscratch (Oh, Catscratch)

La la la la la la la, Catscratch. [Laughing]
