Petey TheCat is one of the two deuteragonists (alongside Li'l Petey) of DreamWorks Animation's 48th full-length animated feature film Dog Man, based off of Dav Pilkey's book series of the same name.
He is the world's most evilest cat who brought Ohkay City into fear for years prior to the film's events. After firing his old butler, Petey realizes he needs a new partner and crime and clones himself. The clone ends up being a kitten clone nicknamed Li'l Petey, who is abandoned on the streets by Petey. After reading a handwritten comic made by Li'l Petey, Petey starts to feel remorse for betraying Li'l Petey and attempts to give the kitten a good life in contrast to his own tragic past where his abusive father abandoning him and his mother, leaving them with little to no belongings.
He is voiced by Pete Davidson.
His Heroic Deeds[]
What Makes Him Admirable?[]
- He feels remorse for abandoning Li'l Petey and, after finding that Li'l Petey is still alive, creates 80-HD to help him find the child.
- He shows that he fully wants Li'l Petey to have a good life instead of the poor life he had as a child.
- When he sees Li'l Petey kidnapped by Flippy, he immediately goes to Dog Man to see if he can help save him.
- He creates the Mecha-Mail Man 2000 for him and Dog Man, which helps the two defeat the Living Spray Factory severely.
- He is more than willing to sacrifice his life to save Li'l Petey and all his friends from the wrath of Flippy.
- When he gets the chance to undo his choice of making Li'l Petey, he rejects it, saying that he would never have that happen.
- He encourages Li'l Petey after Petey's invited dad steals all of their belongings, saying that the world had a lot of problems, but it couldn't be a horrible place because of Li'l Petey.
- He hand-stitches a new tennis ball for the lonely Dog Man and allows him to share custody of Li'l Petey with him.
What Makes Him Inconsistent?[]
- He is a villain for the first half and some of the second half of the film. Because of this, he still keeps some of his villainous actions, which he himself states. These include being selfish and arrogant, which is too corrupting for him to be Near Pure Good.
- Also his heroic actions focus severely on Li'l Petey and Li'l Petey only. This also makes him an anti-hero.
- While he feels remorse for some of his actions, he doesn't feel remorse for all of his actions, such as killing Officer Knight or putting the Okhay City in fear for years.
Trivia[]
- He and 80-HD are the only Dog Man Inconsistently Admirable to originate from the film. Coincidentally, both of their book counterparts were voted as Near Pure Good.
- He is the only character created by Dav Pilkey to be both Inconsistently Admirable and Inconsistently Heinous.
