Plot Summary

Sylvester decides that it’s time to get on the wagon and joins up with a shady group of felines called Birds Anonymous, a self-help collective dedicated to ridding cats of their bird eating tendencies. Naturally, Tweety puts a spanner in the works and the whole venture collapses in chaos as the BA cats revert to type and head out for some wholesale birdy slaughter.
