Of Interest:

Daffy’s (and by definition Sylvester’s*) distinctive lisping voice was based on Leon Schlesinger’s, who never realized that the voice was a mockery of his own. When he first heard Daffy speak, his first exclamation was “that’s a funny voice, where did you find such a funny voice”

*Mel Blanc preformed the same voice for both Sylvester and Daffy. The difference was that, for Daffy, the voice would later be sped up.
