4!!This show provides examples of:
5* AbnormalAmmo: Like in ''WesternAnimation/DarkwingDuck'', Courageous Cat's guns would fire everything except bullets.
6** Subverted at the end of an episode, where Courageous Cat uses a normal gun to capture the bad guys, who were prepared to anything except for that.
7* AlliterativeName: Courageous Cat and Minute Mouse.
8* AnimalSuperheroes
9* AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever: In "The Case of the King Size Caper", using a growth ray, Professor Shaggy Dog causes Courageous Cat and Minute Mouse to grow so huge that if they go into Empire City they'll cause tremendous damage.
10* TheCaseOf: Every one of the episodes used this name template.

15* FurryReminder: At the end of episode, "The Case of the King Size Caper", after the bad guys are locked up, we find Minute tiny after using a few too many reducing pills, and he says that he's so small that he feels like a "house mouse".

17* TheLoad: Minute Mouse has his moments, but in general he is a very ineffective sidekick.
18* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: The Frog was a caricature of Creator/EdwardGRobinson, even with Robison's "see?" VerbalTic.
