First appearance of Sylvester Pussycat. It's also the only time he is seen eating cat food.
The title is a spoof of the popular book, "Life with Father." The film version would premiere in 1947.
Sylvester tells the bird to get back to Capistrano, a reference to the return of the swallows to Mission San Juan Capistrano in California and the 1940 song by The Ink Spots celebrating the event.
In this early version of his depiction, Sylvester has yellowish inner ears and a very large nose. These features would evolve over time.
Although the radio advertisements for the delicious food sounds appetizing, WW2 was still in its waning days and the U.S. was under strict rationing at the time this short was released.
