Added DiffLines:

* In "the Million Dollar Cat", Tom's inheritance will be revoked if [[OnOneCondition he harms any living thing]] including mice (like Jerry). How exactly is that enforced? There was no sign of any human owner or handler keeping an eye on Tom at that luxury apartment in the short. So how would anyone know that Tom maimed, crippled or even killed Jerry?

** They provide him with a place to sleep, food and security. To Tom it might not be a high price to pay to get chewed out every once in a while. He's a domesticated house cat, so he might not be too knowledgeable on how to manage as a stray and/or doesn't want to live like that.

** Just because they can endure a lot doesn't mean they're invincible (remember, Tom got decapitated at the end of Two Mousketeers). Also, unlike previous shorts, here they intend to die. They're making themselves as vulnerable as possible, both physically and mentally, to make absolutely sure it happens.

* With the exception of characters like Spike, Butch, Meathead, Lightning, etc., why is almost every character in the franchise, especially in modern media like ''WesternAnimation/TomAndJerryTales'' and ''WesternAnimation/TheTomAndJerryShow2014'', drawn with cheeks that stick out prominently? That's one thing about the franchise that kind of bothers me. Is it because they don't want them to look too much like ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' characters?

* The end of Blue Cat Blues shows Tom and Jerry sitting on train tracks waiting for the train to hit them. Considering just how much Tom and Jerry have endured over the years, wouldn't they survive the train anyway?
