Plot

The series follows Oggy (who is referred to as Oggy Oggy in this series) as a kitten, who goes on
cockroach
-free adventures with his friends (Mallow and Sporty) in a world where everything's made out of kids' toys.
Characters
[

Unlike the original series,
Oggy Oggy
takes place in a town where cats happily reside (though mischievous cats can show up at times). Peculiarly enough, Jack and Olivia (who are both cats) are absent in
Oggy Oggy
, but are seen (with the show's 2D art style) on a framed photo in "Santa's Christmas".
- Oggy Oggy - The titular character, he is an optimistic and fun-loving kitten. Oggy Oggy is the only character who communicates with sound effects of a cat, rather than being voiced. He is a kitten with a light blue body, black dotted eyes, red nose, white stomach and feet.
- Mallow - Oggy Oggy's best friend. He is a kitten with yellow glasses, light green polo, black overalls, and white shoes with grey laces.
- Sporty - Oggy Oggy's other best friend. She is a kitten with white sports visor, dark green polo, white shorts and shoes with two stripes on each side.
Other characters in Oggy Oggy's hometown include:
- Grandma - Implied to be Oggy Oggy's grandma, as seen in "Eyes on the Prize". Unlike the original (where she resembled Oggy), she is a cat with a peach body, gray hair and always wears opaque glasses.
- Wild Cat - The odd one out, who's moreso inline with nature.
- Santa Paws - A cat who shows up in the series' Christmas specials, based on
Santa Claus
(although his stature is small, like the rest of the cats). He has Santa's red and white outfit and light yellow fur.
- The Farmer
- The Shepherd
- Flocks of sheep - Kept in small pens. They have the same cat faces as the rest of the townsfolk.
- Police Cat
