However, Sylvester is often portrayed as more bumbling and less intelligent than Tom. Sylvester's schemes to catch Tweety often backfire due to his own clumsiness and lack of foresight. On the other hand, Tom is shown to be more cunning and strategic in his attempts to catch Jerry. He often comes up with elaborate plans that almost succeed in capturing the elusive mouse.

Tweety Bird vs. Jerry

Tweety Bird and Jerry the mouse are both small, quick-witted characters who outsmart their larger adversaries, Sylvester and Tom. Tweety is known for his innocent appearance and sweet demeanor, which often lulls Sylvester into a false sense of security. However, Tweety is not as defenseless as he seems, as he is able to outsmart Sylvester and escape his clutches time and time again. Similarly, Jerry is a clever and resourceful mouse who is always one step ahead of Tom. He uses his intelligence and agility to outmaneuver the cat and avoid capture.
