Rounding out the section is "The Great Cat Family" (12:50), an excerpt from a 1956 episode of Walt's "Disneyland" anthology series. After a short intro from Uncle Walt, this plays out with a narrated, animated history of cats that traces the species' origins from pampered and populous in Ancient Egypt to domestic pet worldwide, with special note being given to their role in wiping out the Bubonic Plague and their persecution among witchcraft.
