Sylvester Junior

Sylvester James Pussycat, Jr, often shortened to "Sylvester Junior" or simply "Junior," is an animated cartoon character. He is the son of Sylvester the Cat. Physically, Junior is basically a miniature version of his father, having a large head in proportion to a small body.
== History ==
=== Golden Age ===
He debuted in the cartoon "Pop 'Im Pop!", directed by Robert McKimson. Bob Bergen and Joe Alaskey (both after Mel Blanc's death) voiced him with the latter voicing his father as well. Junior possesses a degree of respect for his father, although often, when Sylvester does something embarrassing or humiliating, Junior often displays shamed and/or embarrassment of his father's behavior (sometimes donning a paper bag over his head). Often, Sylvester and Junior's shorts would feature Sylvester trying to capture Hippety Hopper, a baby kangaroo, to prove a point to his son. Each attempt at capture, of course, failed miserably, owing to Sylvester's invariably mistaking the kangaroo for a "giant mouse," and as such being taken completely by surprise by the kangaroo's athletic prowess, with Sylvester losing every fight, often in spectacularly humiliating fashion.
"Tweet Dreams" has been the only pairing of Junior and Tweety in the Looney Tunes shorts, though it was not a direct one, since Junior served as a flashback image.
=== Post-Golden Age ===
After the original Looney Tunes shorts, Junior would show up sporadically in later years. In Space Jam, he made a cameo appearance as one of the spectators viewing the basketball game between the Tune Squad (which had been led by Michael Jordan) and The Nerdlucks (in their "Monstars" form).
He also appeared in the 1993 Sega Genesis video game Sylvester and Tweety in Cagey Capers as a sidekick to his father to help him catch Tweety by giving him navigations, in the 1999 Game Boy Color video game Looney Tunes as an enemy to Tweety to help his father to catch him, and in the 2000 Game Boy Color video game Looney Tunes: Marvin Strikes Back!.
