Dec 17: Good Deed

On this day in 1932, the Disney short Mickey's Good Deed, directed by Burt Gillett, was released.
This cartoon finds Mickey & Pluto as homeless beggar musicians - trying to earn money to help out a poor family of cats on Christmas Eve. When they don't have much luck, Mickey decides to temporarily sell Pluto to a wealthy family. He uses the money to play Santa and surprise the feline family. Meanwhile poor Pluto is being driven crazy by the wealthy family's spoiled brat. In the end, Pluto is set free and reunited with Mickey for a merry Christmas.
