Patient Porky is a 1940 Warner Bros. Looney Tunes cartoon directed by Bob Clampett, written by Warren Foster, and scored by Carl W. Stalling. The short was released on August 24, 1940, and stars Porky Pig. Bugs Bunny's prototype makes a cameo appearance in this cartoon, making it his fifth and final appearance.

Plot

Porky visits a hospital with a stomach ache from overeating at his birthday party. Instead of a real doctor, he encounters a cat posing as "Dr. Chilled-Air." The cat attempts surgery on Porky, who panics and escapes. Back home, Porky tricks the cat into thinking it is Christmas, only to find himself stuck with the cat waiting to resume the operation.
