Quotes from A Tale of Two Kitties

Catstello: But I don't want to hurt no boid. I like boids. I'd go hungry first.
Babbit: What's the matter, fraidy cat? This is just a tiny bird.
Catstello: You mean it's just a poor little, teeny-tiny, itsy-bitsy, defenseless bird?
Babbit: That's right.
Catstello: Let me at 'im! Let me at 'im! I'll get him, Babbit! Gangway, I'll murdarlize him! Let me at 'im!


Babbit: [sees a flat Catstello] Come on. Stop your clowning! What's the matter with you? Aren't you ashamed?
Catstello: I don't know.


[Catstello is sitting on a powder charge which Babbit is ready to detonate]
Catstello: Gee, Babbit. I'm just no good.
Babbit: Oh, the brakes were against you.
Catstello: I'm a flopparoo. I can't even get the boid.
Babbit: Don't worry. You'll get it, all right.
Catstello: You mean I'll get it in the end?
Babbit: Yeah. And you'll get a big bang out of it, too!
[He detonates the charge, sending Catstello flying]
Catstello: [unaware he is airborne] Well, that sure takes a load off my mind.

Facts about A Tale of Two Kitties

"If the Hayes office would only let me, I'd give him the bird alright," refers to the Hayes Code, which set the guidelines for content that can be allowed in a motion picture.
First appearance of Tweety Bird.
The pink bird in this short is an early version of the character Tweety. Early model sheets for this short indicated that Tweety's original name was "Orson," though he is never specifically referred to that in the film. Later, after censors complained that the pink bird looked naked because he had no feathers, Tweety's color was changed to yellow.
