The Cactus Kid is a Mickey Mouse short animated film first released on May 10, 1930, as part of the Mickey Mouse film series.[2] It was the eighteenth Mickey Mouse short to be produced, the third of that year.[3]
The cartoon's cast includes Mickey, Minnie Mouse as a cantina waitress, Peg-Leg Pete as the villain Peg-Leg Pedro, and Horace Horsecollar as Mickey's horse.
This short features a number of notable firsts and lasts: it is the first short with Marcellite Garner as the voice of Minnie Mouse, and the first time in a Mickey Mouse cartoon that Pete has a peg-leg. It is also the last short directed by Walt Disney for the next five years.
