Banjo the Woodpile Cat is a 1979 animated short television film directed by Don Bluth. It follows the story of Banjo, an overly curious and rebellious kitten who, after getting into trouble for falling from a house to see if he could land on his feet, runs away from his woodpile home in his owners' farm in Payson, Utah by catching a truck to Salt Lake City. The film took four years to make and it was Sullivan Bluth's debut film. It had a short theatrical run in December 1979, but did not appear on network television until 1982.
