Trivia:
The pink bird in this short is an early form of the character "Tweety Bird". Early model sheets indicated Tweety Bird's original name was "Orson", which is the bird's name in this short. Later, after censors complained that the pink bird looked naked because he had no feathers, Tweety Bird's color was changed to yellow. moreQuotes:
Catstello: But I don't want to hurt no boid. I like boids. I'd go hungry first.Babbit: What's the matter, fraidy cat? This is just a tiny bird.
Catstello: You mean it's just a poor little, teeny-tiny, itsy-bitsy, defenseless bird?
Babbit: That's right.
Catstello: Let me at 'im! Let me at 'im! I'll get him, Babbit! Gangway, I'll murdarlize him! Let me at 'im!

As the two cats struggle to retrieve Tweety from the nest high in a tree, each ploy is designed by Babbit and carried out by his dupe, Catstello. At one point Tweety says his characteristic "I tawt I taw a puddie tat!" This is possibly the first time he used the legendary line. But in this episode it is not joined by the response, "I did! I taw a puddie tat!"
