Synopsis
April Maze is a 1930 short animated cartoon featuring Felix the Cat, directed by Otto Messmer and produced by Pat Sullivan.
Felix brings his nephews Inky and Winky to the park for a picnic, but they always seem to be delayed. While they say their grace, a rabbit gets a snake to steal their meal. When they try to get it back, it rains so they must go back home. The rain stops and the three continue to the picnic. It rains again for a short while, but then it gets better.

About Felix the Cat: April Maze (1930)
Felix the Cat was the first cartoon superstar. Created at Pat Sullivan's studio, where Otto Messmer did most of the animating, the black cat with the wide grin starred in well over a hundred silent shorts in the 1920s, famous for surreal gags in which Felix turns his own tail, or a question mark floating over his head, into whatever tool he needs.
