Catty Cornered is a 1953 Merrie Melodies cartoon, directed by Friz Freleng, and starring Sylvester, Tweety, and Rocky. This is also the only speaking appearance of Rocky's gangster sidekick Nick, who may or may not have also appeared in "Golden Yeggs".

Plot

Rocky's gang, which only consists of Nick and himself, pulls off a bird-napping racket by kidnapping Tweety! Sylvester then decides to save the bird, but... will he save him from the gangsters or save him for lunch?

Quotes

Nick: Hey, boss. I tawt I taw a putty tat.
Rocky: You did, you did. You did tee a putty tat.
Sylvester: Ya dirty guys!
Tweety: Nasty old kidnappers!
Tweety: Those bad old gangsters!

Availability

Laserdisc - Guffaw and Order: Looney Tunes Fight Crime

Notes

Included in Friz Freleng's Looney Looney Looney Bugs Bunny Movie and The Bugs Bunny Mystery Special. But for some odd reason, the audio is PAL in the beginning and ending to the cartoon, while the middle is NTSC.
Rocky would bird-nap Tweety once again in The Sylvester & Tweety Mysteries episode "The Cat Who Knew Too Much", except that Rocky's sidekick is the idiotic Mugsy as opposed to the smart Nick.
