CatDog is an animated television show that features a very strange Cat and Dog hybrid that has both the head of a dog and the head of a cat. This of course leads to many wacky problems. The animal's names are Cat and Dog and they live together in a suburban style neighborhood called Nearburg that is occupied exclusively by animals. Cat and Dog are the best of friends despite having very different outlooks on life. Cat is greedy and selfish. He always wants to find a way to make money. He is very books mart and likes the finer things in life like opera and classical music. Dog is the more fun loving of the pair. He loves to eat junk food and chase cars down the street. Cat and Dog share a residence with a mouse named Winslow T. Oddfellow. On the surface, Winslow seems to antagonize Cat and Dog but often acts as a voice of reason in trying to defuse Cat's schemes or save Dog from hurting himself. The neighborhood is occupied by a street gang of 1950's style dogs. This group is called The Greaser Dogs. They are CatDog's chief oppositional foil each episode and often antagonize Cat by calling him names. The members the Greaser Dogs are Cliff, Shriek, and Lube. Rancid Rabbit is another troublemaker in Nearburg. He has had multiple careers, always in opposition of CatDog's best interests. He has been a movie mogul, school principal, police officer and many other authority figure types. He has a spoiled and bratty niece, Rancine, who has a strong desire to capture CatDog and keep them as a pet. CatDog ran for four full seasons and produced 68 episodes. The cartoon employed some of the most notable voice talents in the industry. Tom Kenny, Jim Cummings, Billy West, Maria Bamford and John Kassir all lent their voices to multiple characters.
