The last appearance of Spike.
The score for this cartoon was featured on the audio CD "Tom & Jerry & Tex Avery Too!".
The voice actors are uncredited, but the lady of the house (Joan) may have been voiced by Janet Waldo, who voiced the housewife as well as the teenage babysitter in the following year's Tot Watchers (1958). (The character in this short does not sound like prolific voice actress June Foray.)
The concept of finding the guilty party was done some years later in a commercial between a couple of household pets and the family trash. Once again, it was a photo finish that determined the true culprit.
In his final appearance, Spike breaks the fourth wall as he bemoans being framed.
