Nemo

Nemo is Francine's pet cat of ambiguous breed in the Arthur TV series. He was first introduced in the season three episode Francine and the Feline, being discovered by Oliver Frensky in the landfill in which he worked which led to the adoption of Nemo. Initially, Catherine had adopted Nemo as her own pet, naming the cat Rose Petal, but later, she realized that the cat 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 babies, but Nemo 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.



Trivia

 * Nemo's appearance has changed since his debut, as he had a much "fuller" feline face in his debut but in later appearances doesn't have much of a muzzle to speak of.
 * Nemo was friends with Pal in Francine and the Feline, but they since have become mortal enemies.
 * On the front cover of Arthur's Pet Follies on VHS and DVD, Nemo's original design was used on that cover.
