Season 1 episode 1 of CatDog is titled "Flea or Die / CatDog Food". The episode opens with CatDog being chased by a swarm of fleas. The duo tries everything they can think of to get rid of the pesky insects, but nothing seems to work. They eventually decide to consult their veterinarian, Dr. Dachshund, for help.
Dr. Dachshund tells CatDog that they have two options: either they can buy a flea collar and hope it works, or they can try a new experimental treatment that he's been working on. The treatment involves a special type of shampoo that is designed to kill fleas on contact.
CatDog decides to try the experimental treatment, as they are desperate to get rid of the fleas. However, things quickly go wrong when they accidentally use too much shampoo and end up shrinking to the size of bugs. Now, CatDog must find a way to reverse the effects of the shampoo and get back to their normal size before it's too late.
In the second half of the episode, CatDog is hungry and decides to make some food. However, their different tastes and preferences make it difficult for them to agree on what to cook. Cat wants to make a fancy meal with expensive ingredients, while Dog just wants his favorite food: meatballs.
The duo decides to compromise and make a dish that they both will enjoy: spaghetti and meatballs. However, things again go awry when Cat accidentally drops a jar of hot sauce into the pot, causing it to become incredibly spicy. Cat is convinced that the dish is ruined, but Dog loves the spicy flavor and can't get enough of it.
In the end, the duo realizes that compromise is key to their survival as conjoined twins. They may have different tastes and personalities, but they always find a way to work together and make things happen.
Overall, "Flea or Die / CatDog Food" is a fun and entertaining episode that showcases the unique relationship between CatDog. It's a great introduction to the characters and sets the stage for the wacky adventures that the duo will continue to have throughout the show's run.
