* AlternateCompanyEquivalent:
** To [[Franchise/{{Popeye}} Bluto/Brutus]], although he predates him by several years so technically [[OlderThanTheyThink Bluto is one for him]]. Certainly doesn't hurt that Pinto Colvig voiced Pete AND Bluto at different times.
** Could also be one to WesternAnimation/ElmerFudd, given his status as the IneffectualSympatheticVillain oldest enemy of Disney's [[WesternAnimation/MickeyMouse iconic character]] just like Elmer is the IneffectualSympatheticVillain oldest enemy of [[WesternAnimation/BugsBunny WB's own iconic character]].
* CantUnHearIt: Many fans see Creator/{{Jim Cummings|1952}} as THE voice for Pete.
* FridgeBrilliance:
** Why is Pete a cat? Because what other animal than a cat could be the perfect ArchEnemy of a [[WesternAnimation/MickeyMouse mouse]].
** Also take note that he's regularly pitted against WesternAnimation/{{Goofy}}, a [[HeroicCaninesVillainousFelines dog]].
* LoveToHate: Naturally, being the oldest Disney villain, and one of the most iconic. A thoroughly unpleasant antagonist, but a perfect and hilarious opponent for our heroes.
* MoralEventHorizon:
** In Disney's ''WesternAnimation/ThePrinceAndThePauper'', unlike in his other appearances, show Pete at his most irredeemable, being a cruel captain of the guard takes advantage of the king's illness to steal from the poor and plots to usurp by killing the Prince while using Mickey as his PuppetRuler when the king finally passes away.
** ''WesternAnimation/MickeyDonaldGoofyTheThreeMusketeers'': "Hah hah hah! I'm in such a good mood." ''(tries to decapitate WesternAnimation/{{Donald|Duck}})''. And if that didn't do it for you, there's him chaining Mickey in a dungeon that will soon rapidly fill with water, nearly drowning him.
* OlderThanTheyThink: As mentioned on the Western Animation page, he predates Mickey by three years.
* PopularWithFurries: Being a [[BigBeautifulMan heavyset]] cat, he actually has plenty of furry fans.
