Fictional Felines

[jeff_schiller]

How many different, named cat cartoon characters can you think of? You can't count different versions of the same character (like Sylvester and Baby Sylvester :P) and you can't count unnamed characters (like the cat on "Early To Bet"):

Felix the Cat
Krazy Kat
Beans the Cat
Little Kitty (Porky's "daughter" in Gold Diggers of '49)
Claude the Cat
Sylvester
Sylvester Jr.
Pussyfoot
Pete Puma
Cool Cat
Tom (from Tom & Jerry) and his girlfriend
Heathcliff (was he ever animated?)
Top Cat
Garfield
Fritz the Cat
Tigger (from Winnie the Pooh)
Simba, the Lion King (and all his relatives)
Puss in Boots (from Shrek 2)
Tony the Tiger (Frosted Flakes mascot)
Chester Cheetah (Cheetos mascot)

I know there was some Sabre-tooth in Ice Age and a cat in Finding Nemo, but I don't know either name.

My favourite out of all of these is Sylvester....what's yours?

Regards,
Jeff

Leave us not forget that Sylvester was called "Thomas" in his first pairing with Tweety in "Tweetie Pie", & wasn't one of Warner Brothers lions called "Nero".

[Nick]

Leave us not forget that Sylvester was called "Thomas" in his first pairing with Tweety in "Tweetie Pie"
As well as in "A Hick, A Slick And A Chick" when he is called Herman.

Other cats,

Bad Luck Blackie

I forgot to metion Atilita or Atila from Mother goose and Grimm.

[Geezil]

from Heathcliff's "supporting act" on late(?) '80s TV:

Riff Raff (not to be confused with the decidedly canine "Underdog" villain)
Wordsworth
Cleo
Mongo
and at least one other "Catillac Cat" whose name I can't recall just now (help?)

...Oh, and does Mew from "Pokemon" technically qualify as a cat? :anime:

[angelidollinda]

...Oh, and does Mew from "Pokemon" technically qualify as a cat? :anime:

Actually... I'm clueless about what the hell Mew is. :sweat:

[Frizfrelengfan]

Flop (Flippy and Flop in Columbia Screen Gems cartoons)

[Geezil]

Meowth ("Pokémon")Also: Persian ("Pokemon") (yes, that's its "name" too in this case)

Shnookums (and "Meat" ...Disney cartoon series)
Jasmine's Tiger (forget the name)
Lucy (the Hellcat from "Ethan Greene")
The Kitten in "Bad Luck Blackie"

Wee Willie Wildcat


EEK! (EEK! the cat) Anabelle, too. (Man, was that a funny cartoon series or what....!!)

[Merrytoon]

Jasmine's tiger's name is Rajah. I'm unsure of the spelling though.

Riff Raff (not to be confused with the decidedly canine "Underdog" villain)
Wordsworth
Cleo
Mongo
and at least one other "Catillac Cat" whose name I can't recall just now (help?)

Hector (and I think that it was Mungo, but I'm not sure of the spelling, so it could have been Mongo)


A relatively forgotten cat who probably never made an animated appearance was Frieda's cat Farron from Peanuts. He didn't do much, just reclined in Frieda's arms (Frieda was the girl with "Naturally curly hair" in A Charlie Brown Christmas, and she herself is almost as obscure as her cat...)
