What's left behind the scenes
- The plot of the cartoon is based on the real story of a cat family that lived in Paris in the early 20th century and inherited all of its owner's fortune.
- The character nicknamed Кыш-Брысь was originally intended to be voiced by Louis Armstrong (1901-1971). Even his image was based on the famous musician – the way he plays the trumpet, certain features of his appearance, including the characteristic gap between his front teeth. Unfortunately, due to illness, Armstrong was unable to participate in the voice acting. He was replaced by actor, singer, dancer and musician Scatman Crothers (1910-1986), who was instructed to "pretend to be Satchmo" (Armstrong's nickname).
- The Duchess's kittens, Toulouse and Berlioz, are named after post-impressionist artist Count Henri Raymond de Toulouse-Lautrec-Monfa (1864-1901) and composer and conductor Hector Berlioz (1803-1869), respectively.
- The hunting dogs Napoleon and Lafayette are named after the French military leaders Napoleon I Bonaparte (1769-1821) and Marie Joseph Paul Yves Roch Gilbert du Motier, Marquis de Lafayette (1757-1834), respectively.
- The image of the alley cat Thomas O'Malley is based on singer, songwriter, jazz musician and actor Phil Harris (1904-1995), who also voiced him.
- This was Bill Thompson's (1913-1971) last work in cinema. The actor died less than a year after the cartoon was released.
