Trivia
Granny calls the yellow avian a Tweety Bird in this episode.

Goofs
When Sylvester uses the toy crane, he cranks it in the same direction to both lower the grappling claw and raise it. He should have cranked it in the opposite direction to raise it. POSSIBLE EXPLANATION: There might have been just enough rope on the windlass to extend the grappling hook down to the quarry; if the rope was attached to the windlass at the end, then it would wind back in if the windlass was turned in the same direction.

Quotes
Granny: Ah, ha! You didn't count on Pocahontas, did you, Geronimo?

Alternate versions
Current Cartoon Network version cuts out the entire scene in which Sylvester, dressed as an Indian, tries to catch Tweety, who's dressed as a cowboy. Sylvester pulls off the cork of Tweety's gun and gets blasted in the face. He manages to catch Tweety but gets stopped by Granny, who's also dressed like an Indian.

"Kiss the little birdie."

It's Christmas at Granny's house and everything is kind of crazy. Sylvester is trying to eat Tweety, Hector the bulldog is trying to eat Sylvester, and Granny is trying to keep the peace. One of the best Sylvester & Tweety shorts, brought to us by Friz Freleng. The animation is beautiful with really lush colors. The music is lively and fun. The always great voicework from Mel Blanc and Bea Benaderet is a treat. Wonderful characters alternate between being adorable and being hilarious. It's such a good cartoon. Plus it's Christmas-themed so it has that added bonus and even ends with everybody singing a Christmas carol (badly).
