1* AdaptationDisplacement: Most who have seen this series have never even heard of ''ComicBook/{{Gear}}'', which is [[InNameOnly (allegedly)]] the show's source material. [[{{Irony}} Ironically]], said source material [[KeepCirculatingTheTapes is actually easier to find than the show]].
2* BadassDecay: The Kraken might suffer this, seeing as how he was able [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome to destroy a large ship in his debut appearance]], but by the next, [[DefeatMeansFriendship he is begging the cats to let him stay at their mansion]], gets easily chained up to a rock by the other krakens on his home planet, and when he tries to fight the three-headed kraken (whom he says bullied him in junior high) [[EpicFail he only manages to slap them once]]. Then they [[CurbStompBattle pick him up, punched him in the face repeatedly, and throw him into the sea]].
3* CrazyIsCool: [[BadassAdorable Waffle]], considering he defeats a bunch of zombies with a laser light show and he defeats a dragon rider by trying to eat his head.
4* CultClassic: Widely regarded as one of the most criminally overlooked Nicktoons.
5%% Administrivia/ZeroContextExample * HoYay: "Two of a Kind", see ShoutOut on the main page for more info.
6%%* JerkassWoobie: Mr.Blik sometimes crosses into this territory, most notably in the Mr. Pickles episode.
7%% * MemeticMutation:
8%% ** '''SPLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!'''
9%% ** This exchange:
10%% -->'''Mr. Blik:''' We need to think. How do we usually get out of these messes?\
11%% '''Waffle:''' We don't. We just make a bigger one that cancels the first one out.
12* {{Moe}}:
13** Human Kimberly, especially when playing with Gordon. She's a very cutesy and optimistic eight-year-old who really loves the cats despite their flaws.
14** Waffle also qualifies with his {{Adorkable}} antics.
15* {{Squick}}: Gordon's infatuation with Human Kimberly. They are around the same age[[note]]the wiki says Kimberly is eight years old and Gordon's about 14[[/note]], but Gordon is clearly middle-aged in cat years. Let's not forget that he's a ''cat'' crushing on a human girl.
16* SpiritualSuccessor: This isn't [[WesternAnimation/{{CatDog}} the first]] feline-themed Nicktoon.
17** It can also be seen as one to ''WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddy'', as both shows follow a ComicTrio with similar personalities and misadventures, coupled with ToonPhysics.
18* SuspiciouslySimilarSong: There's a background track that's clearly a copyright-friendly version of Gojira's Godzilla theme song. For reference, it's used when the cats were fighting [[ItMakesSenseInContext as giant blimps]] in "King of All Root Beer", complete with Godzilla's stock roar. Kinda fitting, actually.
19* TheWoobie: For a cheerful guy, Waffle gets hit with BreakTheCutie quite a lot. Episodes like "Bringing Down The Mouse", "Zombie Party A Go-Go", "Evil", "Off The Leash" and especially "Two Of A Kind" will make you want to cuddle that poor, adorable cat.
