Nemo

Nemo is Francine's pet cat of ambiguous breed in the TV series. He was first introduced in the Season 3 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 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.



Trivia

 * Nemo's appearance has changed since his debut, as he had a much "fuller" feline face then but in later appearances he doesn't have much of a muzzle to speak of.
 * Nemo was friends with Pal in Francine and the Feline, but they since became mortal enemies. One exception was in the episode, Pet Projects, when their onwers and their friends were putting embarrassment in the camera films starring them. They formed an alliance to get revenge after the humans did the films for their own sake.
 * On the front cover of Arthur's Pet Follies on VHS and DVD, Nemo's original design was used.
