Kitty Kornered is a hilarious animated short film that takes place in the 1940s. It follows the story of Porky Pig and Sylvester the Cat as they encounter a series of misadventures after a Martian invasion and a prank gone wrong. With clever humor and surrealism, this cartoon explores the chaos that ensues when a goldfish bowl, a moose head, and a radio broadcast are combined.

A jungle land radio station run by monkeys pulls a prank by reporting an invasion from space is occurring and a large cutout face is hoisted above the trees so all can see. Fireworks are employed to sound like a war has started. The King, a Lion with a Bert Lahr voice, finally exposes the fakers. Inspired by Orson Welles' "War Of the Worlds" radio hoax.
