Editing Cats Don't Dance (section)

=== Accolades ===
Despite mostly positive reception, the [[Stinkers Bad Movie Awards|Stinkers]] filed the film under the Founders Award in [[1997 Stinkers Bad Movie Awards|1997]] (which lamented the year's biggest studio disgraces), citing it as "loud, unfunny, and completely over the heads of its intended audience".<ref>{{cite web |title=1997's Biggest Studio Disgraces |url=http://thestinkers.com/founders_award.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/19991010130006/http://thestinkers.com/founders_award.html |url-status=dead |archive-date=October 10, 1999 |website=The Stinkers |access-date=October 6, 2019}}</ref> On the other hand, when it comes to positive accolades, although failing in gathering any Oscar nominations, it became historically the first non-Disney animated film to win the Best Animated Feature at the Annie Awards.
