Cat always getting the short end of the stick

Did anybody ever feel bad for Cat that, often, the Greasers would beat him up when it was mostly Dog's fault (i.e. the one where Dog made a cat puppet?) I also felt bad for him in the nightmare where Dog and Shriek got married. Dog didn't seem to care that Shriek and the Greasers were making Cat miserable. And that Dalmatian who stole Dog's hydrant bit CAT on the nose. I found it funny how Dog got the award for playing the donkey in the Abe Lincoln play, when it was Cat who did not want that role at all. I wish Dog stuck up for Cat more often.

Like the proverbial cheese, I stand alone. Even while seated.

I agree

The show suffered from having cat suffer too often. As his brother, you would think that dog would stick up for cat more often. But it wasn't just his brother who made his life miserable.

Winslow was a dick. It was clear that he diddnt care much for either cat or dog, but because if thecat/mouse thing, the relationship had to be exaggerated. I'm fine with this, but they forgot to make it funny. If Cat hates Winslow, then why does he allow that mouse to stay with him? Does Winslow pay any rent?

The worst case involved cat having to go back to high school... Because he never graduated. That's already hard to buy as cat seems to smart to miss a day of school while dog somehow made the cut even though he couldn't pass kindergarten.

Catdog only seems to like making as mockary out of Cat even though he reall hasn't done anything, or at least anything that makes him suffer such abuse.

I watched the Butt Buster episode this morning and it's one of my favorites, always was. I remember it from way back. lol. At least Cat certainly conquered his fear by the end. I love how Dog assured he'd be right next to Cat on the ride and they hugged. One of my favorite moments ever on the show.

Yeah I feel bad for Cat,there was an episode when he was favored though. The one when he joins an all cat club and the cats liked him but hated dogs.

My absolute favorite episode where he wins in the end is the Sneezie Dog episode when it turns out Dog was allergic to Winslow the whole time and they end up shaving HIM, after Cat ended up getting shaved much to Winslow's amusement. Cat says "You're not allergic to meeeeeeee, you're allergic to a certain blue RAT!" Then he says "You know, Dog, there's nothing funnier than plucked rodent! (imitates Winslow's laugh) HE-HEEEH!" Even the episode before that, Cat won in the end, even though Rancid stuffed them inside the trophy.
