Sylvester the cat, with his tomato red nose and huge jowls, made his first appearance in the 1945 Warner Bros. cartoon 'Life With Feathers'.
The canary was not so innocent as it looked and often matched Sylvester cat in deviousness and cunning, often setting things up so that the cat appeared to be the sole mischief maker and the bird the sinless victim.
Sylvester is remembered for his rasping lisp, particularly his catch-phrase 'Sufferin' succotash!' The voice for Sylvester the cat was provided by Mel Blanc the man behind so many of the looney tunes voices, and was said to be modeled on producer Leon Schlesinger's own lisp.

Researchers used a cartoon featuring fl and white cat Sylvester to study how language was reflected in the gestures people made.
Dr Sotaro Kita, of the University of Bristol's Department of Experimental Psychology, showed the cartoon to a group of native English, Japanese, and Turkish speakers and then watched their gestures as they described the action they had seen.
For example, when describing a scene where Sylvester swings on a rope, the English speakers used gestures showing an arc trajectory, and the Japanese and Turkish speakers tended to use straight gestures showing the motion but not the arc.
