** On ABC, the end where Sylvester is laid up with injuries had the scene of Hector bashing Sylvester's broken foot replaced with Tweety mixing additional medicines in Sylvester's bottle. The edit actually makes the scene worse, as it cuts down Hector's hits from three to one and leaves in Sylvester's scream of pain and the immediate cut to Tweety creates a RelaxOVision of sorts that implies what was already censored. Here's a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwD2vpJPLqU video clip of how it was actually cut on ABC]].
** The Nickelodeon version left in Hector bashing Sylvester's broken foot, but cut off Tweety's final line, "That puddy tat's gonna be in an awful pwedicament when that medicine starts to work" and ended the cartoon with Tweety laughing as Sylvester gags and spits out the medicine (possibly to avoid implications that Tweety may have poisoned Sylvester, though leaving in Tweety mixing in the additional medicines, as well as ending it with Tweety laughing at Sylvester gagging and spitting out the medicine isn't much better).

* FurIsClothing: Sylvester hides inside Granny's knitting basket just as she sits down to knit. Some of her yarn gets caught with Sylvester's fur, and [[AllClothUnravels it starts unravelling]]. Sylvester realizes and knits it back, along with some of the yarn, and he ends up with a multicolor argyle pattern on his lower half. Granny sees this and [[MistakenForBadVision blames it on her astigmatism]].
