Continuity mistake: In Owl's house the animators have forgotten to color his umbrella among other things in the background. In a couple of shots later, they have now been colored. (00:29:20)
Continuity mistake: The chapter about the snow and the final chapter are both labeled as "Chapter X".
Continuity mistake: It's very common for the characters to misspell words or use reverse/mirrored letters. However, in Owl's house the word "hunn" (meaning hunny, the Y is just not visible) can be seen written on the jar, but in a couple of shots later it's now written as "hunny" with a reversed N.

Continuity mistake: When Pooh decides to have lunch at Rabbit's house, the cutlery (a knife and a spoon) changes hands as well as disappears entirely between shots. (00:14:20)
Continuity mistake: When Christopher Robin picks up Eeyore's tail, he and Kanga are several feet away. But in the next shot they're right next to the donkey. (00:07:35)
Answer: Holloway could have continued voicing Winnie the Pooh, but by that time he was in his 80s and felt he could no longer effectively use his voice for the character as he once did. He chose to retire from the role.
