Meathead is a brown, mangy, generally dull-witted cat who first appeared in the Tom and Jerry 1943 short, Sufferin' Cats!, as Tom's rival. Meathead later reappeared in Baby Puss (in which he serves as one of three minor foes/a recurring villain) and additional shorts as one of Tom's alley cat buddies/foes.
Characteristics[]
Personality[]
He is thought to be more or less a stubborn, tough, foolish alley cat. He is initially Tom's rival, but he is dumber by comparison. He is known to be one of the least intelligent cats in the series.
Appearance[]
Meathead Cat has brown fur with white paws and wears a red toupee (which is sometimes the same color as the rest of his fur). He also has his tail tied in a bandage in his first two appearances. In Scat Cats, his final golden age appearance, Meathead is silver-grey instead of brown.
