Has anyone seen this old christmas cartoon (i think it was a Warner Bros. short for the holidays done in the 40's or 50's) about a mouse waiting for santa? Last time I've seen it was when i was a kid (read: a looong time ago) and I've never forget it. It's set in the living room of a house on christmas eve. Snowing outside, the mouse prepares a lot of things in order to give santa a warm welcome (can't remember details), there was no words just music and the sound of a radio, I think. The mouse prepares everything and then sits down waiting... long hours go by as the mouse starts to feel sleepy and his eyes are closing, lullabied by the smooth music of the radio, only when the mouse gets to sleep is when the silhouette of santa, sleigh and reindeers are seen coming from the sky... very beautiful, I wanted to show it to my daughter, but I can't find it. Any clues?

The Sniffles cartoons are some of Chuck Jones's best :) He's my favorite Looney Tunes director.
Thank you fellas... I thought I'd lost it forever.

I googled it, and came up with "Bedtime for Sniffles" as the specific cartoon.
