Sylvester is Granny's pet cat. He spends most of his time attempting to catch and eat Granny's other pet, Tweety.
Summary[]
Sylvester made his first appearance, though only a silent cameo in Jailbird and Jailbunny, during the song Blow My Stack, when Yosemite Sam was singing about not being able to count to ten at an anger management class.
In Devil Dog, Sylvester was chasing after Tweety, and just when he catches up to him, the Tasmanian Devil, as a twist to the usual antics, shows up and Tweety notices that Taz is behind Sylvester and says "I tawt I saw a Tasmanian Devil". Sylvester doesn't believe Tweety and grabs him. Taz is right behind Sylvester ready to eat them both. Sylvester notices and start running away from him. Tweety and Sylvester manage to escape Taz, by running to the kitchen, as he ate the table and Tweety flying away up the chimney with Sylvester on his legs. After Taz falls back to Daffy and Bugs, they both run back inside of Granny's mansion.
In Eligible Bachelors, Sylvester tries to catch Tweety with a golf club, but he landed in the chimney. He later appeared in the end when Tweety tells him that he fought in World War II and also tells him Tweety's gender.

He also appears in Double Date in the Merrie Melodie trying to eat Tweety and singing about being polite.
| “ | ''It's like a bird, a mouse, and a can of tuna all mixed up into a perfect red dot!'' | ” |
His first major appearance is in the episode Point, Laser Point. In fact, the episode primarily focuses on him. Granny wants him to stop chasing Tweety Bird so she has him play with a laser pointer. Sylvester became obsessed with capturing the "little red dot" to the point where he felt the need to seek therapy and found out the reason he was fixated on this red dot was because it reminded his subconcience of his mother's necklace. The therapist, Witch Lezah, teleported him to Florida to speak with his mother.

Trivia[]
- Even though Sylvester appeared in The Jailbird and Jailbunny, his first speaking role was in Devil Dog.
- Sylvester claims that he lets Tweety get away most of the time, so he doesn't get bored.
- This seems to be him not liking to admit that he loses to Tweety.
- Sylvester has evidently been given a style change since his last series appearance: He has gained a more slender build, shorter body and his canine teeth have become more prominent and sharp, making him appear more like a housecat. In Season Two he resembles more like his classic-era counterpart.
- Like Daffy, he has a lisp when he speaks.
- Sylvester had braces as a child and is supposed to wear a retainer, but doesn't for unknown reasons.
