Lonesome Lenny is a 1946 Screwy Squirrel cartoon directed by Tex Avery and released to theaters on March 9, 1946 by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.[1] It is the last Screwy Squirrel cartoon; he is "killed" off on-screen at the end of the short.
Screwy Squirrel becomes the playmate of a lonesome, dopey, and strong dog Lenny, in a broad parody of John Steinbeck's "Of Mice and Men".
