- Toodles (Tom and Jerry)
Toodles is a "
Tom and Jerry " character, who first appeared in the1946 short, "Springtime for Thomas ". Toodles is an attractive female, white cat, and is supposedly Tom's "usual" love interest. Although Tom is a reputed playboy, and had other love interests before and after Toodles, Toodles is the only love interest whom appeared more than twice, and is probably the most favored. During the classic era, Tom had to compete against Butch three times for Toodles' affection, and he lost them all.Toodles apparently is open to any form of romantic relationships, even with non-cats, as shown in the end of "
Casanova Cat " where Jerry got to make out with Toodles as they left Tom and Butch behind.It is said that
Lana Turner 's character Bunny Smith, from the film "Week-End at the Waldorf ", was the inspiration for Toodles' character and personality. [Referred in the book "The Films of Lana Turner" by Lou Valentino.]Featured Cartoons
