"Mary Poppins" was (I think) Disney's first use since the 1920's
of a technique he developed in his silent "Alice in Cartoonland"
shorts.  Alice was a live little girl and the cartoons were drawn
around her.  They featured a cat that looked and behaved remarkably
like Pat Sullivan's "Felix".

The thing I hated most about "Mary Poppins" and "The Gnomemobile" 
were the little kids' snooty British accents.  What was this obsession
with British settings anyway?  I think "Lady and the Tramp" was
set in London too, wasn't it? Or am I thinking of "101 Dalmations"?
