Dude Ranch is the place where 'Texas Tom' is set. Tom, busy fooling around with Jerry in his usual manner, suddenly notices a car drop off a very pretty cow-girl cat with whom Tom immediately falls for. Jerry, however, has other ideas...
This cartoon is cool! It's dead funny, especially when Tom starts miming to a turntable record playing 'If You're Ever Down In Texas, Look Me Up', but I won't spoil that bit.

Tom and Jerry are in Texas as cowboys. When a beautiful female cat arrives Tom falls instantly in love and tries to be really cool. Of course Jerry makes sure he has not got a single chance.
This is one of the funniest cartoons from Tom and Jerry. Every joke is a good one and the songs used are quite good as well and perfect for the story. Simply great.

This "Tom and Jerry" short from 1950 called "Texas Tom" is one fun and memorable cartoon from the duo as the cat and mouse finds themselves in the lone star state. Both are on a ranch and guess what the cute cat Toots arrives and Tom being a cowboy has his eyes and sights set on her. However this lasso and rodeo to reel her in will be tougher than normal and expected with Jerry mouse around. Now enter the wild card of the story a mean horned charging bull is after Tom so the cat's love is cooled in the Texas heat. Overall good well done "Tom and Jerry" cartoon that stays in memory.

This is one of the better Tom and Jerry cartoons to prominently feature music. For some reason, whenever music was a focus, the short was usually excellent (examples include, Solid Serenade, Johann Mouse, Pecos Pest and, obviously, The Cat Concerto). Here, there's a hilarious song at the outset, over the opening credits and a bit later, Tom does his best impersonation of a cross between Tex Ritter and Milli Vanilli. Jerry, for a good many reasons, does his best to destroy Tom's romantic intentions (hey, what are "friends" for?) and largely succeeds. At cartoon's end, we leave amid the strains of another musical interlude and a twisted variation on an old cliche of the western genre and a good time is had by all, except Tom, of course. Well worth tracking down and most highly recommended.
Tom, now a cowboy (or cowcat) on a farm somewhere in Texas is involved in his usual pursuit of Jerry when a gorgeous girl cat arrives. He is immediately smitten and falls in love, hoping to impress her with a tough guy act, and serenading her with a mimed song.
Not taking too kindly to being treated as a slave in his love game, Jerry messes up Tom's plans and gets him on the wrong side of the farmyard bull. It's a pretty funny cartoon, especially when Jerry tampers with the speed of the record Tom is miming to, and there's quite a bit of inventive visual humor too. I just wish that Tom would get the girl for once.
