Sandy Claws (1955)

Nope, nothing to do with Christmas! Today, our suited Granny clearly doesn't feel the heat as she takes "Tweety Pie" to the beach for a day in the sun. Left to sunbathe in his cage, he is spotted by "Sylvester" who is having no luck at all at fishing! Lunch thinks he! No chance thinks his yellow quarry and the antics that ensue see the cat come up with some ingenious plans to catch the birdie, but even the sea itself seems to be conspiring against him! He tries a boat, then a glorified jet-ski, some water balloons - but all he gets is wet and shark bites. When granny reemerges in a striking pink bit of seaside Victoriana, she even tries to help him - but, well, this cat ain't going cut that mustard. Snag is with these is that after a while, I wanted "Sylvester" to get the better of the smart-assed bird and use the feathers as a tooth pick - but, not today!
