Nemo

Nemo is Francine Frensky's pet cat. He was first introduced in the Season 3 episode Francine and the Feline, being discovered by Oliver Frensky in an Elwood City Dump landfill in which he worked which led to the adoption of Nemo. Initially, Catherine had adopted him as her own pet, naming him Rose Petal, but later, she realized that he was more suitable as Francine's pet, leading him to be renamed Nemo. His biological parenthood is unknown.

Like Pal, in some episodes, he is shown to be able to communicate to other pets and human babies, but he is usually cast as an antagonist in these situations. During these interactions, especially with Pal, he is prone to insults and sarcasm but can be occasionally helpful.
