Home, Tweet Home is a 1950 Merrie Melodies short directed by Friz Freleng.
Title[]
The title is a play on the song "Home! Sweet Home!"
Plot[]
Tweety is in the park, bathing in a bird bath. Sylvester happens to be nearby, and he starts chasing Tweety. Tweety seeks protection from a nanny sitting on a park bench with the baby she is sitting. Sylvester dresses up as the toddler, but is caught and given a spanking. Sylvester tries to set a trap for Tweety but is outwitted. Sylvester chases Tweety, who seeks refuge next to a bulldog being walked in the park. The chase resumes and Tweety flies up to a nearby building ledge. Sylvester uses a bubble gum bubble to float up and catch him, but fails. Sylvester is chased by the bulldog after disguising himself as a tree.

- This is the first Warner Bros. cartoon released in the 1950s.
- In this cartoon, Hector's nose appears to be colored red, similar to Sylvester's nose, instead of black as in his other appearances.
