Trivia

 * Paprika cries when Steve and Blue try to look after her.
 * This is the first time Sidetable blushes shyly.
 * When this episode is shown on Noggin, the pawprint for the second clue is blocked up almost entirely by the Noggin watermark at the bottom right corner of the screen.
 * This episode is the second of 2 episodes on "Blue's Safari" that aired on VHS.
 * Also the credit music was used for the VHS credit sequence as well.
 * The idea of needs was also looked at back in the Season 1 episode What Does Blue Need?.
 * The living room picture frame picture looks almost exactly like the one in "The Grow Show!", only the ducks are rubber ducks.
 * The first half of Nature/Nurture! was looked at in the later Season 3 episode Nature.
 * In the Mailtime song, Blue's original singing from the series pilot episode Snack Time was reused for the very last time.
 * This is 4th episode where viewers say "Notebook!" from Mailbox's Birthday wasn't used.

Goofs

 * When the third clue is on Turquoise, the pawprint is purple, instead of Blue's original pawprint color (Dark blue, which is very common).
 * In the closing credits, David Burger is credited as "Duke" David Burger.
