"The Last Hungry Cat" is a 1961 Merrie Melodies short staring Sylvester the Cat and Tweety Bird. It was directed by Friz Freleng and Hawley Pratt.One night, Sylvester tries again to get Tweety, but he makes a slip and falls dazedly to the floor, with one of the bird's feathers landing in his mouth. Tweety escapes unharmed, but when Sylvester sees the feather in his mouth, he thinks he has actually eaten the bird, suffering much guilt as an Alfred Hitchcock-type narrator chides the cat for his "crime." Sylvester ultimately decides to return to the scene of his crime to confess, only to discover, much to his relief, that Tweety is very much alive and unhurt.

Beary Funny: The Hitchcock-type narrator is a bear, apparently.

Cranial Eruption: Sylvester's fall to the ground in trying to get Tweety results in a lump on his head. At the end, Sylvester hits the narrator on the head with a thrown brick, resulting in the narrator getting a lump on his head. When he leaves, his outline also leaves that same lump.

Pacing a Trench: As Sylvester ruminates over his predicament, he paces back and forth for so long that he actually wears the floor out. The narrator calls him out on it:

Recycled Animation: The animation of Sylvester both tossing and turning on his bed and his Broken Tears are reused from Birds Anonymous. As well, his consumption of sedatives during this same scene is taken from Lighthouse Mouse.

Big "SHUT UP!": At the end, when the narrator quotes Shakespeare for a moral, an off-screen Sylvester shouts, "Ah, shaddup!" and throws a brick at his head.

Literal-Minded: Sylvester thinks he's wanted by the law when he sees a newspaper headline: "Police Hunt 'The Cat.'" If he hadn't stopped reading too soon, he would have seen the photo of the real criminal: Harry, alias "The Cat."
